Hence being okay means not dead. No one is asking you to keep everyone kept at full the entire time, that would be a waste of MP. It's more so to bounce back when when your tank is eating a TB or everyone would die to a raidwide.

Otherwise it's doing as much DPS as you can between your own offensive actions/support.

Then get rid of every other job having a self heal so I can do the role I'm assigned.

The Devs can't have it both ways. If they want healers to heal, make them heal. Stop giving other jobs tools for healers to have downtime with.

I understand the complaint, but DPSing as a healer is a bonus for making sure everyone is okay. Healers have so much support especially between SCH and AST that even if they aren't casting their DPS skills their support skills more than make up for it.

Except the whole reason we keep having this seemingly endless debate is because content doesn't hit hard enough to warrant focusing on healing. If the damage scaling remains relatively where it's at with Stormblood, then if you aren't DPSing 70-90% of the time, you're literally doing nothing.

Maybe SE wants a solo-healer meta so they don't have to worry about inter-healer balance as much.

Yikes, didn't know that. I'm in the process of listening to the YouTube videos now.

Now if only they made content where you actually had to spend more GCDs on healing than DPS.

WHM is basically the same with Dia and Glare.

So do we get skills like that back after 74 levels or no?

(At work, won't be able to watch videos or streams for many hours.)

No. Bio turns into Biolysis which is an AMAZING 10 potency increase (heavy /s)
