    Unpredictability is about the worst way you can possibly design both Tanks and Healers. And AST was designed with it as it's core job mechanic. They need stability, because routine random spike damage is stressful and frustrating for both.

    A small amount of RNG is fine. Your Cure 1 can proc a free Cure 2. Great. Felt rewarding in low level play when MP resources actually mattered.

    A combination of 6 Boles / Ewers / Spires on the old card system? Yeah, no.

    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]
