Please stop crying that Dancer is a range dps

I don't hate that Dancer is a DPS. I'd argue that it makes a lot more sense than healer.

I think most people are upset there isn't a healer at all, not that Dancer specifically isn't one.

Agree with this.

But I also think this gives us more hope for healer reworks.
They could have given us a fourth healer and kept the existing healers relatively the same, but WHM is in dire need of an overhaul in order to remain relevant in the direction this game is going.
With sufficient reworks, we could essentially be getting 'new' healers in the form of 'new' WHM and possibly SCH.

actually I like dancer being range-whatever. and im wondering if that frees the way for a non-mp healer like Alchemist in Final Fantasy Tactics.. throwing potions and buff/debuff elixir could be really smooth in FF14 - and they would absolutely have their own identity : o

I am in 100% agreement with this. I want the new healer to be super unique have mechanics that actually make sense for healing purposes. Throwing things at enemies to heal your party? Is dancer a by-proxy vampire?

A non-mp healer would be really cool, and I am definitely on board with Alchemist in this capacity.
