Suggestion about Cleric Stance

[Fevelle]

The ability to stance dance is what make you a good healer... But I guess it doesn't matter anymore, right! Just dps without cleric stance if you can't. Stance dancing is not what prevent healer not doing dps though. It does prevent bad healer from doing good dps though :P

Yes it does. With the current attitude of the community, a lot of new players I know (some of them that I invited personally) feel discouraged to try and DPS because they could let the tank die.
And let's stop calling people 'bad', geez.

And be it said hereforth, that a new breed of healer be born unto the world. A healer unthinking, only caring about DPS. Honestly, this is what separates the good Healers from the bad healers.

Without this, why not every tank have one stance that is tank stance and DPS stance all in one? Don't forget Monk's Super stance Fists of Heaven now including Fire/Wind/Earth in a single super stance.

Not only that but SE made it so healing is reduced in Cleric so you can't lustrate in Cleric anymore. You missed the easy days of Scholar, my friend. I embraced the changes and enjoy switching a lot more. Brings more challenge to the game.

Please don't shy away from a learning experience. Don't shy away from challenges.

SE, please DO NOT do this.

Your way of looking into things is wrong, so let me explain.

Stances for MNK and Tanks in general are BONUSES - be it to enmity or damage - while our stance is a complete swap of attributes.

A MNK without any stance can still do damage, lower, but still damage.
A tank with Tanking stance can still do damage, lower, but still damage.
A tank with DPS stance can still generate aggro, lower, but still aggro.
A healer in Cleric Stance can't heal. And that's it.

Your view would be right if Cleric Stance was a 10% bonus to damage with a 20% healing reduction - not a complete change of main stats with healing reduction.
