10k heal on a 60 second cooldown. Really Devs?

The game as a whole is getting progressively more balanced and removing more cheese strats like this, it's not a downhill trend.

Of course it´s not a new thing, but it´s getting downhill gameplay wise. Classes get more and more cutted, we´ve no skilltrees or something, nothing to experiment with, nothing which could make a change when 2-3 ppl are dead or the last fool isn´t able to do 1 mechanic properly, which last in a wipe every time.

DPS have no chance for a turn-around, unless you play rezzmage. Tanks on the other hand are fully braindead. Tanking these days means to press invul when a TB comes, nothing more. Healers have to use some buttons every 30s to heal raidwides. This "balancing" is lame and straight up boring. The content is not even difficult to play nor the classes are.

I would highly prefer any cheese strats, maybe here and there a meta class, customization and a well better raid-design to let those non-existend utilities shine. It´s way more fun and engaging than what we have now. Playing 123 and moving from A to B isn´t a good game design by all means. Having the same "useless" tools on any subclasses isn´t a big deal too. We don´t need a bunch of subclasses who play similar in their category just with different animations.
It just shows how uninspired and lazy SE is. They don´t want to put effort into balancing or a better game design anymore. "Fast and easy", that´s their choice...

Games should force the player to grow and shouldn´t get dumb´d down until grammy with her 5y old grandson is able to clear everything too. Give all DPS better and unique utilities and make the content harder with debuffs, adds, 1-4 bosses at once and DPS checks. This would be a big thing.

As long as RDM's cure continues to be nothing more than dualcast-bait then I don't see why dancer of all people should get stronger heals.

Doesn't the dancer already have the lowest dps so don't see why it need a cd for healing. If I remember right in ffxi you could use a dancer as a main healer in it.

No, DNC comfortably outshines both BRD and MCH in 8-man content at higher levels in terms of rDPS. Suggesting it should also have more healing capabilities than what it already has is foolish to say the least.

OP, why are you furious about a 60s cd heal that restores ~15% of yours' and your teammates' HP, as long as you stack with your partner?

WAR e.g. has a 15% shield every 90s for the whole party, PLD only 10% if they are getting healed by spells.

A simple "stack on me" heal that outshines tanks party shielding capability is nothing to sneeze at. If that is not enough, you can even buff every other Waltz with Improvisation. Additionally, DNC beats their role counterparts in terms of rDPS. What more do you want?

Get ready for that numbers squish that's coming for Endwalker; then that number will be really low. :P

I've been looking forward to this for a long time now, because I feel like as the numbers have gotten higher, it tends to distract folk from the important stuff.

Lashing out protective Sambas with an extra Healing cherry on top (which spreads from both you and your partner for a good chunk) -- not to mention Standard, Technical, and Devilment -- as one of (if not THE) most mobile classes in the game right now (not to mention other perks), and people are asking for the heal to be bigger?
