    Speaking of healing changes, why is that tiny little arrow needed? The one that shows you if someone needs to be healed? Was there a call for that I missed completely?

    Apparently there are players who can't tell when a bar isn't full . . .

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    I wonder if this was specifically added to help with mechanics that require your HP to be full.

    That is, I admit, a possibility I hadn't thought of, but at the same time I am not aware of any offhand, though I don't run the higher tier stuff myself to know all mechanics.
