I don't get why people have to act so condescending and negative towards people they disagree with, which telling someone they are acting like a child literally is. People can and should speak their mind and state their reasons on why they agree or disagree with a particular viewpoint. The moment people start resorting to personal attacks, which calling someone childish or irrational is, your no longer discussing an issue but targeting a group to either discredit them or try and make them shut up.

Any constructive feedback discussion requires respect on all sides and if your going to call someone childish, your not being respectful.

On the actual topic at hand, while the recent Mr Happy interview hints that maybe we might be getting significant enough changes to see them finally make some inroads on the balance issues that have been a chronic problem for healers for most of FF14. I chronic problem, I might add, that Yoshi P openly stated existed. We will have to wait and see. If they can actually improve healing gameplay and balance in this game it will mollify a lot of my disappointment with going another cycle without any new healers.

One other thing I find curious. One of the main reasons people have been defending Dancer as a ranged DPS is that they qualify it as a unique sub category of dps while grouping healers and tanks together and historically the Devs seem to do this too so there is some justification. However, curiously, their way of dealing with tank balance seems to be to divide tanking jobs into OT and MT categories. Do you think then that tanks should be treated as two separate groups deserving of equal balance too and why or why not? Fundamentally if SE does do such a divide then the same logic saying that it was physical ranged dps's turn to balance out the jobs would suggest that both jobs next expansion should be tanks with one OT and one MT.

I am not saying that should happen but I think it is worth pointing out why some people see the logic for the justification people give for Dancer being a ranged dps as odd.
