Why are Healers allowed to be insanely overpowered?

Really though, healers aren't OP it's just new players lacking experience. But I would say if anything has pushed healers closer to being, OP it's the reduced stun times. It's making things far, far too easy on healer now. I pretty much never die on whm due to it.. it just gives you so much more breathing room... that and new players making you stun immune within 10 seconds of engaging combat :lol:

I think it's more attributed to bad melee who are like HURR DURR I SPINESHATUR DIVE U NOW right off the bat and occasionally PLDs who don't know how to set up their stun locks. That said a proper PLD stun lock is still the bane of a healer's existence. It's nice that they gave healers so much more room for error though, I really felt for them in the Den.
