Tell me one more time Self Care is good. I dare you. I double dare you.
LOOK AT THAT hahahah come on, I was mending this girl and then she proceeded to self care in front of me. I tried to tell her to let me heal her but nothing. To all the people that replied to my previous post, this is it:
Self Care is good, but the way people use it and the ######### they do is just unbelievable

She should probably have let you heal her. But just to play devil's advocate for a minute, there are valid reasons to heal yourself even if another survivor is nearby. Bloodpoints for one. You don't get any bloodpoints for letting someone heal you, but you do earn bloodpoints for healing yourself.
I've had a number of instances where I am self caring and another player walks up to me so I stop healing expecting that they want to heal me. Only to have them stand around for 10 seconds with their thumb up their butt instead of healing. Or you get the occasional troll that will heal to 99% and walk off.
Strategically speaking, if you didn't waste time trying to heal her and worked a gen instead then the team would be better off too. You have to factor in travel times. Also, having a killer run into 2 survivors standing next to each other with one injured is problematic. The killer can easily down the injured survivor and then chase the one doing the healing, potentially hooking 2 survivors in close proximity to each other. That chain of events can straight up cost the whole team of survivors the entire match.

Agree with this 100% but also to add sometimes you let people heal you and they miss checks or they led tracks/ the killer directly to you. I'm definitely not for self care as it's slow as dirt, but healing yourself (preferably with a medkit in my case) is sometimes the safer option as above (plus they can do a nearby gen while you heal for 10 seconds with a kit, better than 2 wasting time healing then starting the gen.

You know, the thread title kind of sounds ridiculous when you say in your original post that that Self Care is good

So that's 3 more reasons to just heal yourself. If I miss a skill check while healing myself, so be it. I can't blame anyone but myself. But it is particularly annoying when a team mate tries to heal you, gets 10% done then fails a skill check and then runs away. Or leads the killer right to you. Those kind of events make survivors lose faith in each other.
There is also the possibility of a survivor running botony knowledge or some other perk that increases healing speed. Combined with a decent med kit with decent add ons and it can just be faster to heal yourself too. So yeah, lots of decent reasons to heal yourself.

What really annoys me is the built-in camo certain characters take advantage of.

She doesn't trust you!
People that run Self Care normally don't trust other teammates, for some reason people are bad at skill checks!
Even at high ranks, it doesn't matter.
She can do it herself, she don't need no man.

Imo self-care is really only worth it when paired with pharmacy or botany or something.

It's funny this being a joke, but I actually fear my teammates when they try to heal me especially if they run to me, like if I want to be healed at the hook (when safe) I'll stay there. Rank resets have given me extreme teammate fear. It's always dwights and claudettes too for some reason, can't hit the checks to save their
my in this caselives.Pharmacy and/or med kits for life. I give them a chance if I know they're a good teammate and we're safe but most times I'm gone. Rank is a joke anyway, I've seen a wounded/crazy Ash hide in a closet in front of a doctor at rank 8, and the doctor was rank 13. Trust no-one when it comes to healing, it's literally like go do a gen please I have a faster medkit.
