Next healer class released should be

Honestly, I don't see room for another healer in the game. Square Enix hasn't had a lot of success with our current three healers. A fourth one would make it even more difficult to please players.

I feel like they kind of need to figure it out then. Every other role of the five roles has had something more recently than Heavensward. Healer is due for one.

I know this would be an unpopular opinion, but I don't think an inventory-based job is the way to go for battles, especially for a healer. Does using potion actually have to be in the inventory, what happens then if you run out, let's say in the middle of an ultimate difficulty duty?

I think a mage-based healer would still better suit.

I like to have Geomancer in the game, whether it be a healer or a caster.

It doesn't have to be inventory based. In FFX-2 the (Al)chemist class could use potions regardless, even if you didn't have them in your inventory. Said skills were called "Stash" skills, and were describe as such by the game's Help description, "Use a hidden item. Takes time, but no item are expended."

BRD doesn't force the player to stock arrows in their inventory. AST doesn't force the player to stock cards in their inventory. It stands to reason, then, that Chemist wouldn't force players to stock potions in their inventory.

Archer, and then Bard did originally. You needed stacks upon stacks of arrows.


They all got converted into gil when 2.0 released though

Yes, I am aware of this technique. The OP though sounded as s/he wanted it to come from the inventory.
