Why do you heal?

[Assirra]

I think this would be great, even if it was just a small emergency heal, or a quick HoT (sorta like how you can move and cast Aero since it's a instant-cast spell). Just something so that they could heal on the run while repositioning.

That reminds me of lustrate, or regen :P

I usually play mage classes in MMORPG.

Black mage is my favorite class (I plays BLM for years in XI), however this game pretty much raped the "classic" concept of Black Mage, there is no difference between it and another DPS, they all feel the same. Scholar is the only job I feel offers something else in term of mechanics, I'm not a fan of healing itself, but I love how the job plays.

Also fast queue.

Eos does all the work, the queue is fast, and generally i can just glance at my feet and party health bars and do any content.

Sch is stupid easy to do well and not pay attention.

1st mmo = 1st time healing
Loved it, felt like no reason to level other DoW/DoM classes to 50.
Went in at launch thinking i shall help people and heal them.
But it soon gradually turned into me being able to solo content and carrying others.
Dunno y it ended up like that, probably it's cuz i'm stuck in the end game community section.
So everyone i almost stumble upon to knows everything and has done like everything to an extent.
So because of that i kinda stopped caring for ppl's well beings lol and just throw HoTs around and barely solo target heal non tank classes.
Came into this game with a good intention but now it's like meh.. Your fault for not avoiding that.

I mained Black Mage until the end of 2.1, but at that time, the class just seemed very repetitive in what I was doing which was virtually the same rotation in every fight, so that got very stale to me. Realising I had a 50 White Mage since September, I decided to try healing out more seriously in endgame dungeons and coil and I absolutely loved it, so now my main is a White Mage and I have no regrets.
I like the feeling of responsibility I have to keep everyone alive and also I enjoy the challenge when a battle gets stressful damage-wise (I'm looking at you turn 8) to ensure that no-one drops after those big hits.

For dungeon spamming I guess but if you want to perform well and carry your weight with your team you need to work hard. Scholar is not just a healer...

[Tyla_Esmeraude]

To be honest, I have no freaking idea.

If RDM had been one of the primary jobs I would've picked that instead. I guess I chose WHM because I wanted to be auto sufficient and not rely on other people for raise and cures. o.O I ended up not being bored playing WHM so there's that. I remember in beta I tried Archer and while at first fun, I got bored of it really fast. I recently finished leveling WAR and while challenging for me since I've never played a tank, it's the challenge that makes it fun. I am now currently leveling a DD job to have variety and while I loved SMN in FF11, in 14 I do not. Though, I leveled it just for the love for SMN, however it got a bit boring for me and I put it on halt. I'm trying DRG to see if I like the job, and so far it's been fun. I might give SMN another chance too. But anyways I got off-topic too much. lol

For myself. Hard to say.

I've played a healer since the old days of Ultima Online and Everquest 1 so .. hard to break the habit. I've always enjoyed the healing aspect. Always felt a nice rush when things go south and yet somehow we all manage to survive just due to some good healing (such as first time solo healing HM Titan.. that was a massive rush). It's one of the few aspects in a game that I'm good at.

[Sadana]

Like others have said, it's fun!
I sub SCH and it really offers a different perspective on any dungeon than when I run them as BLM.
I also get to learn how the different classes are affected by their abilities or mob's attacks in dungeons. (For example, if healing, I prefer a PLD tank; if dpsing, I prefer WAR. )
Plus, macros are fun!

[yahhzoo]

I decided to heal in this MMO because I have been raiding as a dps & a tank for years. I wanted a change and it was worth it! Gives me the rush being a dps and a tank used to.
