It was during Naoki's Room #1.

I think he said
白はさらに使いやすくなるんじゃないかな

Here is the reddit translation of that moment

He did.

And, sadly, 「使いやすい」 tends to refer only to "easier to use" in the sense of making the processes by which to do whatever it is something does simpler or less requiring of effort, not in the sense of widening something's range of use or making it easier to fit into various compositions or types of fights through some change of capacity. That's a painfully out of touch goal, if Yoshida's (hopefully off-the-cuff) thoughts are echoed at all by his design team.

rlly how is white mage hard 2 play ... i mean rlly... i think I'm seeing their issue trying to make things Easyer not harder is why they cant fix any jobs

I can't image how they would make white mage easier to play, like aside from giving white mage mobility there is nothing else to make simpler. There's tons of powerful oCGD heals, powerful GCD heals, powerful single/aoe damage, powerful mana management, and none of it is gated behind skill. I can't begin to imagine what they will do to WHM this time.

Auto heal pet
Like a little flower that follows you

Until the day they'll really prove me wrong and I'll be glad of it, I think the balance issue and the true "problems" in general with healing and healers will never ever be fixed as long as players just play the game and theses classes, and dev team having their unbreakable wall about all of this.

Sounds extremely pessimistic, but it's been too much time, there are hundred of thread on official forums and anywhere else on the internet that points the problem.

That's all I have to say.

..."Sorry"

Maybe he meant "easier to live with yourself if you play" or something like that.

Maybe he meant "easier not to want to kill yourself from 4 years of being the ugly duckling of healers" or something like that

So I don’t know much about whm. What exactly are the lilies used for?
