Protect and what it means to you.

[Lildragora]

Macro protect and forget about it. If someone dies, oh well. Healing without at the moment is fine. Protect basically means nothing to me.

Let the other healer know you dont have Esuna, if they dont either decide which should bring it, unless it isn't needed. Esuna only means slightly something to me as most of the time I really just dont need it.

[Tinker]

O.o I didn't know you could macro Role Actions like that, and was doing it manually.

Macros save the day, yet again.

The playerbase has proven that the current implementation is flawed and lame. It needs to either be replaced by the PVP version (and optionally given to WHM with something new put in the role selection instead), or it needs to be a passive aura (I like that idea). The current version is nothing but busywork with no interactivity or fun.

Sure cast is useless as nothing can interrupt uz anyway in the vast majorities of fight. Allowing a cast while moving would make the skill more interesting.

This is mostly true but I wonder if you could combo surecast and any channeling or long casting spell to counter the floor from moving ie; Levi, Sophia, or other kickback effects like from titan or he'll even A3 with those (+ +) (- -) mechanics. I'm not a healer but surecast sounds awesome to me, do the other casters get sure cast too?

The thing I hate about these customization systems is how littered they are with terrible choices or absolute requirements. Swiftcast is a requirement for a healer, and a healer that isn't willing to slot it should be kicked from party. On the other end of the scale is break, which is the wrong choice unless you're in a boss figt that is specifically designed to make it a requirement.

Unless they can develop a system that has interesting choices they should drop this silly role customizatiin system and add the few requirements to our kits.

Imo, here are my comments on Healer's Role Skills:
[LIST][*]Largesse is not a must-have. WHM's healing is amped up a so it's not necessary but still useful, while AST and SCH used to have no "Divine Seal" to begin with, but could make use of it for stronger shields / heals. A very strong pick indeed.

you lose your 20% from synastry. You gain like 15% from your sect. It is still worth it in most cases to take it.

I would rather Protect be a Cross-Role skill that gives an AoE 5% damage down to everyone in 20' range for 15 seconds. Casted every 120 seconds or something.

[Pence]

Useless skill, and pathetic reasoning for keeping it. Yoshi wanted to keep it because it's an 'iconic' FF skill....yet he killed Shell with no problem.

Synastry is kinda like a single target mini-Largesse now. If you heal the person you're bonded with directly, it's like a 140% heal. I still take Largesse just in case though.

Protect = helps a bit and works as a security blanket to see for people who have a hard time understanding how damage is calculations work. Makes healing a liitle bit easier specially for large pulls.
