Not sure what is going on in the expert dungeons

Yeah, I know why it exists, but I really want that green dps mentality to die a horrible death. It's perfectly fine, encouraged in fact, for a healer to dps when there's no healing needed, but healing should be the top priority. Outside of savage progression and ultimate, healer dps isn't even needed, it's just a nice bonus for groups playing well.

Of course is Squeenix ever decides to make healing a more challenging experience where healers will need to focus more on topping people up instead of just dps and use oGCD heals to get people just healthy enough to survive the next unavoidable damage burst, the transitory period will be VERY rough, since most healers are stuck in this all encompassing must dps at all times attitude.

there is no reason why healers shouldnt dps and regardless of how SE changes the game nothing short of removal of all dps skills for healers will stop the mentality of just enough to survive is all that matters as its true.


ive healed a lot in this game but mainly dungeons as i dps raids/extremes and i will cast extra heals to make sure people dont die if i think its needed but regardless on whether everyone is full health or not you cant keep everyone alive on healer in big pulls if the tanks arent mitigating as much as possible while dpsing and dodging and the dps arent straight up killing everything in the shortest time they can manage.

some of the bigger pulls in the expert dungeons are tricky to heal the first couple of times but once you have a plan on how to heal them then weaving in dps isnt an issue atleast on whm, ast seems odd right now you dont have as many options as a whm and dpsing outside lightspeed seems dangerous but you are constantly boosting party dps via cards so ast might have low numbers if you parse but the grp should have higher than normal numbers.

i cant comment on sch right now as im only level 71.
