Whats with the chemist obsession?

It's a neat concept for a healer job and the game is sorely in need of a healer with different gear aesthetics to the other three.

Eh, can’t agree. Healers being mages is pretty fitting, and even if we get Chemist I would expect it to use the same gear. It’s pretty wasteful to make an entirely different gear category for one job after all.

NIN, and DRG (and for a while, MNK) say hi.

Variety is the spice of life and it's long been a common complaint that healer gear is very 'samey' and overly feminine in design. It's also one of the roles most in demand so anything that broadens the roles appeal is a good thing.

I agree healers are overly feminine in general, and I'd very much appreciate getting a more edgy healer. Are there people who actually really appreciate the fact healers are so feminine? I'm assuming yes, but not sure. It's still a game where we go about fighting and I'm not sure the feminine style animations and attires are overall really appreciated by both men and women in this context. I don't know.
