First of all, we do not expect healers to contribute to DPS. However we know a lot of the cutting edge players enjoy this aspect about the job and that those progressing in the raids early on use it help clear the fights. We decided to make it so that the idea was more approachable and less punishing so that if a player wants to try it, they aren’t sacrificing all of their healing capabilities to do so like they were with the old Cleric Stance. We didn’t like seeing healers doing entire dungeons in Cleric Stance, especially if they forget to switch back and heal!

    That being said, and I want you to really reinforce this to your viewers, I firmly believe it shouldn’t be mandatory and we do NOT have the expectation of them to DPS.

    Let us pass all DPS checks hitting 1 button every minute then. Fair is fair, I expect healers to put in effort like tanks and DPS. Why do healers get special treatment in doing much less effort and encouraged by the producer?

How can 2 healers dish out really good dps before numbers in let's say 11s that requires a lot of heal? Or both healers doing over 900 in 12s? It's funny that those are raids and you can dish out that much, yet certain people act like healer has the biggest ''mechanic'' and have the ''hardest work'' in duty roulettes. Get a grip really, there is no proof of it, only seen proof where you can litterly stand afk for so long until the tank maybe can die.
    You have not been in pfs recently have you? too much to ask for.

    I have and I know what you talk about, don't get me wrong. However, I've had really great groups, even in a9s where we killed the boss before faust with 2 healers and 2 tanks. This was ages ago and those players are gone till expansion.

    The lowest common denominator is a paying customer that could easily go to other games, Yoshi Ps answer is business focused, not design focused

    It could be either tbh, no healer downtime means there is a problem, whether it is the healer or another pt member is a case by case basis
