    I don't remember anyone from the dev team saying that. /confused

    As for OP's video. Umm yay, I guess?

    Also confused - did anyone imply that someone from the dev team said that? Not sure where that's factoring in.

    Not that I am aware of. I just pointed it out because it seems the comment is saying healers should be DPSing, and I thought we were well past those days. I could be wrong though?

    To me, healer DPS contributing to raid damage, skipping phases, and speeding up clears is just a fact. So I am not sure what threads like these or that particular comment is set out to accomplish.

    I'm not Cass so I can't say for sure but I think they're basically poking fun at the old argument that healer dps isn't meaningful or impactful. In this instance the dps the healers did was so considerable it shortened the fight by a ton. That would not be a 6:30 clear without the 10k+ from the healers.

    That's what I figured as well, and guess I'm just curious if anyone is actually still saying these things. We debunked the hell out of that argument and getting rid of stance dancing for healers was a huge contributor to that.

    In terms of the fast clear in this video, I give credit to everyone. Not just the healers. Hence, my lack of enthusiasm for the post. Huge DPS windows for healers means less MP being spent on raises and hard casted cures, so I applaud the DPS and tanks as well for staying on their feet.
