I'm not looking forward to any of these healer changes that are being forced onto us. This reminds me of what WoW just did before they released Battle for Azeroth--they nerfed and stripped all classes. I love this game, but I'm getting a really bad feeling about what's to come because nobody is communicating the changes to the community. Silence like this usually doesn't bode well for the players...

He sounds like he's heavy handed and short-sighted. I really am dreading this patch.
If they can't "balance" healers after 4 years it sounds to me like it isn't a priority for them.
Since lilies are a useless reward for playing the job inefficiently, I'm going to bet that they're going to fix ONE of these. It's either going to be a great reward for playing inefficiently, or a useless reward for playing efficiently. Since we know nobody at SE plays or optimizes a healer, I'm going with door number one. Look forward to Holy locked behind two casts of Cure 3 or Tetra doubling in potency but only after you've put three mobs to sleep with Repose.
Also look forward to two more years of talking to a wall about how this is silly design, and SCH/AST hogging the meta.
This has been Cassandra's Clairvoyant Calamitous Conjecture Corner, signing off.
Personally, I’d like to see AST/WHM meta for once. Sch has had a garunteed slot every single raid tier. It would be nice to not have whm as the only job we have to fight with for a spot while sch sits back, relaxes and watches the show from their throne.
Then don’t play healer...
I have no faith in Yoshi balancing healers or the tanks. All he knows how to do is buff samurai's and the black mage. Then nerf the other jobs that need buffs.
I dont have any faith. I mean look what happened to DRK for 4.0 They gutted the job to where it was basically crap. I had healers leaving the party because I was a DRK before the dungeon even started. I saw party finder groups excluding WHM and DRK.
I bet Thin Air becomes a role action skill for sure and lilies will most likely be reworked but still wont be any good.
I hope I am wrong and that its awesome and the jobs become amazing, but given the past track record there is always 2-4 jobs that will be bad upon expansion release and sadly in the past it has always been 1 healer and 1 tank that takes the short end.
