Message: <blockquote data-quote="S'mon" data-source="post: 6851614" data-attributes="member: 463">If the Barbarian is inflicting more damage than the Fighter as well as taking more damage, then he should still be healed (the moreso in 5e with Rage doubling effective healing). If the Barbarian is somehow taking more, inflicting less, and not acting as a meat shield, then there is a party-wide problem with the Barb not filling a useful role; it's not one for the Cleric alone to address.In the examples the Cleric has plenty of healing to heal everyone anyway so I don't see an issue. If the Cleric does not have enough healing for everyone it might make sense to leave the Barbarian below full hp, though IME it would be unusual not to heal the high-DPR striker as a priority. Maybe if the Fighter is acting as a 4e Defender meat shield keeping enemies away from the Wizard (who is doing the damage) the Fighter might be more important.</blockquote>
