    I'd like all the roles renaming, mostly because they don't really "fit" the world.

    I know they're mostly just out of game terms and as such they don't really have to, but as it's established in game that adventurer parties do roughly stick to the roles it'd be nice if they were called something I could see the NPCs in-game calling them. Protector, attacker, supporter, something like that maybe.

    I have more issue with the DPS name than healer tbh, being a damage per seconder is stupid.

    I agree with this a lot. Drivers aren't called MPHers (or KmPHers). I like when games try to have their own personalities. Every role could have a better name that not only accurately portrays its diversity of tools, but also gives FF14 a bit of its own personality and uniqueness.

    Well .. i mean .. The Devs refer to them as Damage Dealers, or DD for short. DPS is a community name.
