    It’s been stated, but with how many people are planning on at least trying Sage out I hope there is some way duo barrier healer parties will have some kind of synergy. Constant overwriting in those parties is going to be a nightmare.

    About 2+ years ago in a bismark trial on SCH I was paired with an AST. We wiped once because the tanks messed up on the add phase and somehow through some weird twisted logic did my AST partner decided that they needed to swap to nocturnal sect... with a SCH in the party.

    There wasn't a whole lot of synergy. If they don't solve this then it's only going to get worse because I guarantee you if they do not then people will constantly overwrite shields because "their" shield icon isn't on the party.

    Especially when you consider none of the tanks overwrite other buffs.

    This will only be an issue that affects two jobs in the game: SCH and Sage, and that shouldn't be the case.

    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]

    Fairly sure they said they're adjusting matchmaking to require 1 barrier, 1 non for full party content.
