TBH I'd be willing to bet that even after ShB drops, Tanks will still be more in demand than healers even when getting the new job.
People hate tanking in this game, man.
Healers rise up!
Nah, I'm good. This hurts no one but the population of the game and those of us posting and viewing this forum are a small section of the actual game population, so it'll just be a minor inconvenience at best.
You guys do know that most DPS are used to long queue times and trying to make their lives miserable isn't going to change squat? I'm pretty sure most dps like myself have system sounds set to always play even when the game isn't tabbed. We just do something else. All you'd really do if successful is piss off a handful of tanks because they have to wait three minutes more without their prescious instaques.
What are you going to do then, tank or dps the expansion, suffering from the queues you subject on yourself? This won't work simply because you'd get sick of the queues too lol.
honestly what we should do is all not q as healers and rotate canceling the duty finder entering as a tank :p
TIME to go on strike!! Let's RIOT!!
This would be at least wayyyy more successful if you canceled the df by entering as a healer. Assuming nobody's queuing as healer, then the queue won't even pop if you try it on tank lmao
It'd have no effect on me, at least. Have at and have fun cutting off your nose to try and hurt someone else.
Well, to be honnest, I've been healing since the begining of ARR, and always leveled one at a release of an expansion. But honnetly, after 4 years of the same stuff for healer, I wanted something new. Did I get it? no. Will I heal then? Probably not. It pissed me a bit on Stormblood, to have no new job in my favorite role, but I understood the reason, and, at the very least, they did give us an explanation why they won't release any healer or tanks on SB and only DPS.
In this keynote? Not. a. single. word. It's just a big "fuck you" sent to every healers here from Square Enix. They don't care about us. DPS were, again, more important. And, even if they want to make a "surprise new job" - which I highly doubt - tomorrow at the Live Letter or later like when they'll explain what they'll do to the battle system, they just pissed us for no good reason. Announcing it tomorrow won't change the fact that they probably ruined the weekend for a lot of people. I lost almost all my interest after dancer was officially announced as DPS. I was just pissed. And, if I had pay to go to the fan festival, my weekend there would have been ruined. And I'm 100% sure some people feels that way there.
So yeah, nothing new for healer, not a word or something, and they expect us to don't say anything and keep healing? Well, I'm going to try those new jobs and give up on healing then. And I kinda hope too that the queue will be stupidly long for everyone. Just to show to SE that you have to take care of every role, not just the DPS. They could have survive an expansion without any new jobs.
Wouldn't doing any of this be against the tos and count as interrupting some game
As a healer it is our duty to heal! We can’t just stop cause we want to. I love supporting everyone, even if that means becoming the only healer who q’s up!
not any more like 4 tank option 3 healer option ...
as for player wise we should get something for how often they screw us... removed stoneskin from whm. whm is trash now
if they are going 2 screw us the least they can do is take us 2 dinner first
okay time 2 teach you how 2 count
drk,war,pallly,gunblade=4 tank
monk,drg,nin,sam,blm,smn,rdm,mch,brd=9 dps
healer 1 2 3 sch,ast,whm
so there is big reason to cry over it more so AFTER STORMBLOOD GOT 2 NEW DPS JOBS
.. and your going 2 tell me thats okay or reasonable when it is completely screwed up and unreasonable and unfair
If they are going 2 screw us the least they can do is take us 2 dinner first[/QUOTE]
XD This made me laugh.
More people playing as healers than tanks. You know, the reason adv in need is tank 99% of the time.
Also, I remember my main job (pld) being screwed for an entire expansion. War was utter crap for the first couple of patches of ARR. Bard got the shaft in heavensward. And let's not forget drg, who literally could not survive raid wide aoes until final coil when they got a magic defense boost. Crying about healers being the only ones maligned is just silly.
And what is your point? Are you trying to justify the needs of a new tank jobs over a healer one? There are more people playing DPS than healer and tank combined. The problem here is not the tank job, it's the absence of a new healer job and the addition of a new DPS one without any new healer. The result will be more tank, more DPS, and less healer.
Nah, i'm good with all 3 healer jobs at 70 and 2 tanks at 70.And to be honest there is little to no room for another healer, you have the pure with regen wipemage, the shield with debuff scholar and the card joker astro which is in between the 2, being different that it provides a slight buff .How would the 4th work?I'm really curious how the 4th would be.
Didn't they show third class. A picture and girl with big war hammer. That could be a new healer.
Who's gonna heal all the poor dancers levelling on day one in Heaven on High? ; _ ;
Good thing we have the Trust system coming. Probably be your best bet to get a decent healer in the duty finder anyway.
Pretty sure dancer will have a healing song like they did on ffxi.
Ok, you just like DPSing, fine, but the game doesn't turn arround you and what you prefer. We talk about 4 years without any new healers, while there is 11 DPS job with the dancer. And there is lots of room for new type of healing/jobs, it's not because you can't imagine it that it means there is no more rooms for it. I could also say "oh I don't like DPSING and it was fine with the 5 original DPS, no need for more, you already have melee DPS, ranged DPS and mage DPS, there is no more room for anything new".
By all means boycott more queues for me.
I haven't queued for anything for like 4 weeks.
I meant i have those jobs at level 70....funny ....I have all those 5 jobs at 70 since i play support or tank rather than wait and also i don't really play dps ...
You people really need a chill pill and wait for the fan fest to be over since there are 2 days and 1st day just started.
An interesting idea. I mean the resources have already been allocated for SHB. However I don't see any better alternative to express the issue. Yoshi teased "oh look. a hammer *wink wink nudge nudge* hoping it would make people think geomancer. But he lied about male viera in his little 'maybe next fan fest' bit.
This whole 'tease the crowd to build hype and nothing but hype' has bit them in the ass hard this time round. There comes a point when you need to give concrete information to your customers instead of just hoping for impulse buys like shady companies like bethesda and EA.
