Change Dancer to Healer

Please change Dancer to a heal role.

3.0 was Tank, DPS, Healer

4.0 was DPS, DPS, DPS (counting Blue Mage)

5.0 is apparently Tank, and DPS.

Why do healers have to wait four years for a new addition. If Dancer is not changed to a Healer, or we do not get a new surprise Healer, we will have to wait six years for another one. That is disrespectful to the people who play the role of healer.

Actually no, I say keep DNC as a DPS. It's already been announced as a DPS, and unless this was some stupidly elaborate troll (that will backfire on them much more harshly than simply keeping DNC as a DPS), then they won't be able to change it in time. But what we do need is a healer, that I agree with.

You don't need a new job to play healer. There will be many job changes in 5.0 with how the already existing healers work. For myself for example who only plays tank I only play my Paladin regardless of what new tank jobs are added.

It's way too late for that dude. They can't sink what is likely six months to a potentially over a year's worth of balancing and work and turn it all around in less than the three months we have remaining till ShB drops. I'm upset about the lack of healer as well but let's be realistic here. What you're asking for would absolutely never happen.

Ranged physical is support, not quite dps in the same sense as other dps. I thought it would be healer, but now after I've seen it and thought about it, I'm happy with this too. Of all the "roles", physical ranged support had only 2 options. And with the MCH rework in the works, I guess it's the best time to round out the role with a third option and finally decide on the identity of each one.

Plus, now there's a much, much higher chance of getting Chemist in 6.0!

I do need a new job. I have waited for four years, and we only have three. Its easy to say that when you have too many dps roles, and a brand new tank.

I don't think it is realistic to expect them to change things only three months from the expansion release. If they tried it would almost certainly turn out a mess. I am very disappointed though. I was really looking forward to a new healer Job and honestly waiting two years for a 'maybe' is just downright dismal. We would have gone over half the games lifespan without a new healer job at that point.

You don't need new jobs at all to play as any role but can you imagine how upset people would be if they added no new jobs at all? New jobs give people a new way and style to play a role they enjoy. If they feel they want to try something new it is those new jobs that give them the option to do that without changing roles. It adds variety.

Some people are fine with the same thing forever. Some however aren't. At this rate healers would have gone six years without anything new before they might get something new. No guarantees. For people looking for a new take on the role they enjoy, this is very demoralising.

The fact you want to count BLU was a legit magical dps, instead of it's own content is laughable. No offense.

This is why You don't get hyped for something that wasn't even confirmed. Also, ranged physical DPS is the only group that has 2 jobs atm, so it makes perfect sense for that to be the role they chose.

DNC should be a ranged dps. Just makes sense as a support class. But yeah, give healers something please, I'm still hopeful for the rest of the weekend.
