Worst Fanfest Ever

[Videra]

Considering AST is just WHM and SCH slapdashed together with a gimmick? Designing healers in this game is actually egregiously difficult in due to how it's designed. For example, the slow GCD and the heavily scripted nature of fights involving burst damage would never let a HoT based healer work. Or a healer that channels spells over time wouldn't work because you should be spending GCDs on DPS and maximizing OGCD usage for healing. The only thing that -might- be workable is a melee healer, and even then the actual difference would be negligible in due to the overarching game design. Again.

Sucks for people who wanted a healer, I totally get why you're disappointed, but it's just extremely hard to actually work with making a new one. For what it's worth, I'm horribly concerned with how Gunbreaker is going to play seeing as SE had the 'brilliant' idea of giving every tank fell cleave in 4.X.

Yeah, healing needs to be completely reworked in order for a new healer to be worth it. Youd need to limit the other 3 to actually make space for a 4th healer. My concern there, however, is that it would feel kinda cheap. Chopping bits off of existing healers to make a "new" healer class just to satisfy the fanbase would be pretty disappointing.

As for gunbreaker...idk, maybe they can apply debuffs?

You people are never happy.
You whine all races look human-like, you whine all races are cute, feminine and oh-so-adorable. You complain and complain and complain.

It's just like when blue mage was finally introduced. Just moaning over and over.

Everyone wanted a viera, and they still be whining.
Everyone wanted a beast race and they still be whining.


You can play more than one game you know? Go play some graphics novel about bunny boys if it's the only thing that gets your rocks off.

I don't even know anymore.

Right because everyone's just complaining to complain, NOT because everything you just listed was half assed in some way , God forbid people expect some sort of quality when they ask for something , don't even care about the races but what lol people wanted blue Mage as an actual job but we got "that" instead but Na it's just complaining for the sake of complaining

I wish I didn't have to complain, but I can't help my unhappiness with the expansion. Just like some people can't help but be happy anyway.

Dps has 9 classes not 3. Your dumb lame pathetic excuses why not having a new healer is good thing. I really hope all healers strike and you have to wait hours in a que...

....They were EXPLICITLY talking about Ranged DPS. You can't call their argument dumb or lame when you're not even reading it correctly here...

You can surely understand the "moaning" about BLU though? It can't do anything.

But the alternative was never "BLU as a full job", it was "no BLU at all".

Would have honestly Taken no BLU at all, but thats just me, I get some people like this implementation, but for me theres no value there for me, and many others

Ok, then on the next question. What will a 4th healer contribute to the overall game balance? What will a 4th healer do that the other 3 don't already do?

What will a 3rd ranged dps do that the other 2 don't already do ?
Ah no excuse me, not 2 but 1, MCH is not even played.
