The issue nobody wants to address

[tjw]

...I can't really ignore the fight and start paying attention to how other people are doing unless it's a class I know well (and the only class I know well, or at all, is Ninja).

That's just you then. I KNOW my healer jobs well enough that I CAN afford to pay attention outside of what I am doing and check other people's actions. I don't necessarily click on each person, but as a healer, I am seeing the field often enough that I can capture everyone's movements on the field.

Your first sentence is quite offensive actually. So just because you can't be bothered to up your game and use what the game gives you right now, it's my fault for going beyond and making use of what I can? "Why go through all that nonsense". Yes, why do I try to help my party by doing beyond my role, why should I be anything but a tunnel-visioning DPS intent on getting the highest e-peen numbers. I never approached the subject of a parser or UI or whatever; I refuse to even step foot into that cesspool. But thank you for assuming as much about me.
