Hello.

I'm not sure if this is resolvable from the FFXIV side of things, but if anyone has any insight, it would be helpful.

Today, my system finally force-installed the latest major Windows...

This would be one ofnthe best QoL changes I could have ever hoped for. So please God, yes.

It's a shame about this.

I rarely ever comm anyone, to be honest, but when I do, it's the player that downright deserves it. And honestly that's usually a DPS

You could try challenging yourself instead. There's always room to improve, and there's always a way to make it harder. And by taking on those extra challenges, you learn how to heal better in...

Well, I also have no problem with a full ground-up rework of healers, honestly. I just don't think it's terrible the way it is, either.

To put my feelings on the matter into a very short form:
...

I think healers are in a decent state right now, and there are already ways to add a new healer.

The balance thing is overblown. Yes, WHM has a DPS issue, but as far as healing goes, everyone...

Avoiding it isn't impossible. But is going to be about as hard as it is to find a static for anything unconvential. And I can attest to how hard that is.

The mind set of "the real game" is killing newbies across the entire MMO genre.

The trend in MMOs these days is to run with an established system and not innovate. Innovation comes with inherent...

If they just rebalance bosses again to actually strain healers, that would be fine. If you go back and play old content, you'll notice that they do a lot more damage. Particularly with their autos...

This is the problem that the standard MMO approach to content slowly causes to fester, and which tends to kill games over time. Even if they streamline it and make things easier, they can only do so...

I'd personally be okay with a very slight increase in complexity. But as a healer, I don't want to start being judged on my ability to play as a DPS. I mean, obviously we're already judged on our...

If you never use it, don't put it on your hotbar. Then it doesn't take up space.

While I wouldn't be overly upset if they removed it, it does have some very nice uses in old content, and nothing...

Just run it on MinIL.

The thing that is insane, in my book, is how nobody actually cares about the content anymore.

If more people did old content as it was, we wouldn't have to feel sad that...

ARR: Ramuh
HW: The Griffin/Nidhogg
SB: Zenos Yae Galvus (though his best line is, regrettably, only in the quest duty: "Give me something to remember!"

If I could only make an audio macro and...

This may sound like nonsense to most of you, but if people want them to release another healer (like I do), maybe they should stop complaining about how badly balanced the healers are. Honestly,...

I'm not particularly upset that DNC is a DPS, but I am certainly a little disappointed.

I was aware of the possibility of it being a ranged DPS, and it fits that role nicely enough. However, it's...

I strongly agree with the OP.

While compared to some game communities I've been a part of, the FFXIV community is generally more amiable, that amiability does not extend to people who don't...

Describe the FFXIV community in only two words. One must be positive, and the other negative. Here are mine:

+ Active
- Shallow

Best: Putting in the effort to make each and every raid encounter a beautiful, memorable, thematic experience that can be enjoyed for more than just expectations of loot.

Worst: Allowing the...

And I appreciate that you're giving it fair, well-structured criticism.

In response to your points...

I think what you worry about with a burden on newer raiders is justified, but I don't think...

Hello, and welcome to my Alternative to Weekly Chests thread! Or mayhaps "document" would be a better word. In order to make this less of a wall of text, I have divided each section after...

Hopefully we get MinIL for it at the same time, then.

I never said it was possible to heal everything with two healers and never use a single GCD. However, two healers can certainly drastically minimize how many GCDs they use, and on lower tier raids...

- Extra: Tome rewards may be subject to various alterations per week to encourage players to interact with different content for the best tome rates per week, and/or to rebalance the tome rate to...

Yes. Yes, it should.

Grinding loot should not be about thinking content preferences.

I'd love to see a system where all content offers tokens for the latest gear, in varying amounts based on...
