thatwould have been super cool
It would make more sense to add a healer now, and then next expansion add a range dps and a caster dps.
Pre-expansion
Tank: DPS: Healer
3:9:3 (1:3:1)
Melee:Ranged:Caster
4:2:3
Post-expansion
Tank: DPS:Healer
4:10:3
Melee:Ranged:Caster
4:3:3
Dancer Healer
4:9:4
DPS
4:2:3
Not counting Blue Mage
Thinking of it another way
Tank/Healer: DPS
Pre - 6:9 (2:3)
Post - 7:10
Dancer healer - 8:9
Adding Ranged DPS instead of a healer is just mathematically worse, when trying to balance the ratios.
Personally I can live without a new healer for now with dancer as a range dps, just as long as it's good. But it does seem pretty clear which would have been the more optimal choice.
I am certainly okay with the announcements as is.
You can't please everyone.
I think the level of feedback shows this is a little more than a "Well the players would have been upset no matter what" sorta thing.
If you like things the way they are OP great.
I'm not okay with the genderlocking permanently, and I'm skeptical that Hrothgar will even exceed Roe in player numbers longterm... But I am still super excited to see the new races being played.
I wish we had a new healer, but dancer still looks amazing and I can't wait to try it out.
Overall I'm super excited for the expansion, but I still disagree with some of the decisions being made. I don't want them to scrap it and go back to the drawing board or anything, but when it comes to future decisions I'd like em to keep in mind how people feel about the choices here.
Well the other 600+ players who left a like dont like a genderlock, so I guess we got a problem?

Vote in favor of genderlocked races.
