Healer DPS metagame for non savage content is getting old

[ZaaZaa]

Here is my take on this : asking healers to DPS started in SCoB, mostly because the DPS gained advanced gear with tomes, but didn't master their rotations. One can be a good DPS, but ask a DPS to imrpove their DPS by tweaking their rotations... only a few master the job. Elite endgame was NOT designed for healers to support DPS, but that's whhere it started. ASking tanks to improve their DPS... then came the healers. It spread like a virus, and now, we are stucked with people in ex roulette harrasing healers because they don'T DPS.

As a healer, i REFUSE 100% completely to DPS. It's against my principle. This game has not enough separation in roles as it is... FF11 used to have same roles = tank, heal,DPS.. but with new roles puller and support. We can't compare the 2 games, i know... But i refuse to DPS as a healer in FF14 because we need to boost PVE immersion. To each it's job, that's it.

I actually wish DPS on tanks would be capped. Now watch my comments get burnt !
