Ive no faith in SE/Yoshi-P when comes to balancing healers

[Truen]

Just a few hours now!

But I think what people are worried about is the "dumbing down" of healer DPS. I'm not so keen to dive into this topic because I don't feel SCH is more engaging because it has 57 DoTs. It does not mean they won't be able to do some questing, just that it will be boring. And it already is if you main healer : any MSQ instance /fight where you play a healer, it's boring.

Exactly. The attempt to dumb down and over-simplify the jobs is a big problem between the three healers. It's uncreative, bland, and to be honest--I'm dreading the change.

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...

I posted this before the changes were announced, and it looks like my bad feeling was spot on.

Yah... I just can't wait. hope you like 6-8 hour que times for dungeons. cause people just gonna stop playing heres.. all veteran healers stop playing and you be suck teaching noob healers how to savage

while cue times become up 6-8 hours long for simplest of dungeons. trying hold my tongue cause i want don't want to be removed from these forums. screaming out load what I truly want to say about the state of healing atm

give you hint . starts would F and ends with u. for those share in my frustration. my rage. heart goes out.

I love final fantasy 14. this right here is garbage. problem with healers isn't "WE NEED NEW HEALS"

problem is are dps rolation. competitive. retarded down right boring.

I wonder if healers are gonna be the new 24/7 "Adventurer In Need"

No because most healers dont care that much about healer meta and happy to sit there and over heal 100% the time
"Im helping "

Listen if I didn't over heal you, you would be at 98% health right now. Be grateful. I'm wasting all this mp for YOU.

Sounds like to me Yoshi needs to start listening to more than just the Japanese player base. To make a game work and not have it die you have to listen to the whole worlds players base and not just one. Pretty bad doesn't listen to NA player base when its bigger than the JP player base. Just expecting in 5.0 huge queue times for everything.

I love that they used the excuse that they couldn't add a new healer because they had to balance the healers we had.

Like, anyone could add another healer now, it's never been easier. They all fit the same blueprint.

EXACTLY. So disappointing. 5.0 will be the worst patch ever.

It's not even a rework.
WHM still the same : no raid utility, no barrier AOE, can't move while dpsing.
SCH and AST have lost both identity and got nerf in a certain way.

Didn't they want to homogenized the healers that all have access to heal and shields ?
WHM will have no shields.
AST shields can't be stack with SCH (the benefits to use neutral sect with a SCH alongside ?) and can't use them freely together.
SCH has still strong shields + now strong heals.

Unbelievable, that SE didn't bring a true rework (excepted for mana lol), didn't fixed the issues with their changes and downgrade so badly two excellent jobs to match WHM instead to bring this last to their level...
