    To be honest.
    Its becasue people just fire off their stuns and silences on the start when the healer is at 100%, a nin can actually solo a healer.
    I have a few times actually though, it doesn't mean I always will. It honestly depends if the healer is trying to dps/kill me while healing themself letting their hp fall to half so I can chain cc them with stun-combo-followed by silence which happens to be nins burst....Regardless, indeed they're still really strong, mostly do to soaring.
    But without soaring, it honestly just takes two dps or one dps and a tank that knows how to do thier CC right/or know when to burst them.

    The issue with this is this strategy is geared for feast. Which makes absolute sense, but in the time which you have to split off for any reason, it makes it very hard to coordinate random people. This game is pretty much promoting premades to get anything accomplished because be real, how often are you going to get a team of four randos to do anything you want to do? Not likely.

    Also a DPS soloing a Healer? Maybe a really bad one or just a DPS doing a Stun/Silence at half then LB. But even then, a resource was used that isn't always readily available.

    A very skilled NIN or any 2 dps can do it if they fight smart.

    A single DPS shouldn’t be able to kill a healer that knows what they’re doing. It’s absurd to think they should.

    Pretty much this, the reason why healers are hard to take down is only to the fault of those fighting them, you have to time silence, you have to time stun, there is a reason why the cooldown on the resist is so low on these, because you are meant to use them to counter healers.

    A single dps should absolutely be able to kill a healer eventually.

    Healing should delay death, not prevent it. There is a big difference between those two things.

    Edit: And I mean be able to kill them even in the total absence of stuns and silences.

    I totally understand the frustration of fighting healers. That's why I don't. I more than often put my weapon away and leave. It's a waste of time, especially with how weak their attacks are.

    Can i get an explanation as to why you think a dps (especially one playing like a fool) should be able to solo kill someone whos job description is "health restoration?"
