Adding more Healer responsibility: Yay or Nay?

[Billythepancake]

Another anti repose thread?

It is one of the best abilities in the healer kit. It's just not for raids.

If you don't do content where it's used... just take it off your hotbar. Jeez.

If you bothered to actually read the post, it wasn't an anti repose thread. It talked about making it better for all content and giving healers more to do.


Personally,OP, I wouldn't mind it, but I'm not the biggest fan. Would prefer the DPS aspect to be made more interesting, since I actually like the idea of "combat medics" and that's what the healers in this game are. Just wish the "combat" part wasn't broil x 100000

I read it through and through, thank you very much.

One more oGCD ability (which it would probably become if it were to take this responsibility out of tank/dps hands) that occasionally gets used in a fight like shiva savage isn't going to make healing more interesting. You'd remember "Oh, push that button when the earth elementals spawn" and forget it for virtually everything else, including other entire fights. Entire tiers, even.

There isn't some wealth of interruptable abilities, just waiting to break up the monotony of being a glare/broil/malefic bot for the first 3 minutes of shiva, and this is a fight with higher-than-average interruptables.

This is a thinly veiled anti-repose thread.

Because it's become some weird thing certain people like to campaign against because it's... useful for non raid content and we can't have that, I guess? Pretty well puzzles me but the FF14 forums are the FF14 forums, I suppose.
