Complaint about NIN from a Healer:

[Hysterior]

Just let people die from Doom.
In most cases, they can either cleanse it themselves of they did that to themselves and deserve to die.
Remove Esuna from your hotbar.

In most cases, Doom is unavoidable. It's also very often only removed by healing the target to 100% health or a healer casting Esuna, not something most players can do on their own. I.e. The mechanics where Doom is cleansed by the target on their own or can be avoided are the exception. Angry Man doom can be avoided or if received is self-healed by standing on a platform, and terrorsaur doom is unavoidable but self-healed by standing on a platform. These are the only 2 that come to mind, although I might be missing one somewhere.

That doesn’t work for the Doom in the final boss of Wanderer’s Palace HM, because that boss targets someone random to give Doom to and they have to be healed to full to cleanse it. Same for TGC’s Cleansing Strike mechanic. In Exdeath Normal Mode, two people randomly get Doom as the first mechanic, and they have to be cleansed off via Esuna (unless you have two BRDs that have the awareness to use Warden’s Paeon, but that’s asking for a lot).

Sometimes the Dooms aren’t avoidable like the ones in World of Darkness.



As for OP’s concern about the healing to full Doom, I’m fairly certain that the only instances of where you have to heal to full is the final boss in Wanderer’s Palace HM and Orbonne Monastery’s TGC. Knowing that it only exists in two instances is all you need to really worry about in terms of “what if I have to heal them to full”. The other Dooms usually have to be cleansed via Esuna (Exdeath NM) or by the affected individual touching a platform (WoD). Doom isn’t a very common mechanic, so knowing the handful of instances where it shows up is all you really need to worry about.
