We should give tanks the healer treatment too then, right? 1 Damage, 1 DoT, 1 AoE so we don't alienate anyone for such a small number of players. Tanks can just go else where if they want better challenges or play another game.

Or - some healer mains won't like this - in a state where people that don't main them can pick them up and play them while having fun.

It was funny that in my old static, need to fill the tank role? No problem, 3 of us will. Fill the Healer slot? Everyone was fighting each other not to be the ones stuck playing that role. Not because it was difficult, but because the role is just that damn boring. We ended up agreeing to do a role rotation so players didn't feel like they were stuck having to main healer.

If not then, ok... thanks for the bump!

I fail to see why that matters. I enjoy the current content and heard people tell me how healing was in patches and expansions before.
Just because I'm newer than the wise old veterans, doesn't mean I can't have my opinion on the subject.

I enjoy healing as it is. If something changes, fine by me but I'm fine if not and sabotaging with something as childish as a "healer strike" in a bloody mmo is beyond me. But again, you do you.

The only payment I would accept to go on a -chan site is a full healer rework conceding to all requests and a "no take backsies" card.

it is really funny how we're somehow super casual ultimate raiders that have maxed the game out but don't understand it.

The solution is just make more situations to heal in shb dungeons and on (just increase the incoming damage and decrease war selfheal its that straightforward. Tower of zot, holminster switch,tower of babil are like perfect examples of making healers actually heal and not spam 1+dot+aoe). Adding a longer dps rotation wont fix the main issue that healers arent seen as healers, but just third weak dps. It will only attract more so called "green dps" who act like healing on a healer job is a torture. In endgame normal dungeons there is barely any need to use 80-90% of healers cds. Especially if the tank is a warrior.

yeah this strike wont do anything but people are still allowed to voice their dissatisfaction. There is nothing wrong with wishing for more engaging gameplay without being forced into extreme and ultimate because the gap between normal dungeons and hard content is way too big. Is it really that much to ask for the game to make use of more of our abilities, which this game literally provides us?

I genuinely can’t keep up

Can you decide whether you want more DPS or more heals then?

I play 99.9% exclusively as Sage and I still love the hell outta that job.
If there's anything I would like to change, it's just more chances to use heals more often. I don't want more dps, just more healing situations. But if you run daily roulettes, theres plenty of runs where you get to heal a crapton, because people are new and don't know how to play or dodge or whatever the hell is going on.

I personally never had much of an issue and I certainly won't strike. You go and stop playing your healers, while I enjoy even faster ques as healer /shrug

We can have both more healing and more interesting DPS options, and that's also what these folks are going to advocate for. They're not mutually exclusive.

If you're hell bent on playing healer that's also up to you. Nobody but you pay your own sub. Enjoy the game, dawntrail, and your time with your friend. :)

Well unlike the other dilemma that doesn’t contradict at all

More DPS options to bring all content up, more healing mostly in high end content so the floor is unchanged in casual content but engagement is higher, floor and ceiling go up in high end content and the reliance on body checks is reduced

Just tried it for expert, main scenario and leveling roulettes, and LMAO, true on all 3. Can't get any faster than an instapop.

I got the 30 minute lockout for declining so can't try any other roulettes but I'm pretty sure they are all instant except maybe alliance roulette, which requires more dps roles.

How? All jobs have the same amount of abilities and skills. This won't work unless they cut and add new ones.

Oh don't be selfish. DPS also needs to have 1 button rotation treatment.

What if my 94 year old grandma on sick bed can't play? This game must be more accessible than it currently is. We don't want to gatekeep anyone, do we?
