3.2 Patch Notes

[Odett]

they admitted that "outside of the cutting edge of early progression raiding", which ideally is the only place you should have required healer dps. I think they were pretty fair in their statement. And yea I agree with both of you - DPS can be lazy in some post-cutting edge raids because they know healers will compensate for them.

"Required" or not, it's still lazy to just stand there for 5+ seconds in content where high DPS isn't required. I'll leave it at that, because this discussion has been regurgitated again and again, but I think that at the very least, we can all agree that just because something isn't forcibly required of you, doesn't mean we still shouldn't do it if it's going to positively affect the rest of the group.

As usual the patch praises slackers and punishes people for even trying. Nothing changed. Look at the notes red script items will drop from dungeons now? Whats the point of people trying to acheive something for their crafting jobs again if you are gonna give everything as a handout to people? I'm playing FFXIV A Communism Reborn rather than playing a game that can gave some sort of competition and you get rewarded for putting effort in and doing stuff. Its really sad to this that so many people accept this bogus carrot stick mentality of gaming.

I play mostly to hang out with my friends on all 3 servers I have chars in. The community is amazing gameplay decisions are horrible and will continue to be like this until we as players stop accepting this garbage.
