If you're actually playing a healer to heal in Final Fantasy XIV, you would be extremely dissatisfied too because healers BARELY heal in this game.

You seem to share the asinine view that the developers have: people will use healing skills more if they have more healing skills, and they will use DPS skills less if they have fewer DPS skills. This could not be further from the truth. 60-80% of casts in any given encounter will be the exact same nuke spell. If you're not spending over half of your time DPSing, you are massively overhealing even in Savage.

I always get the impression from opinions like yours, who are against healers having a more complex rotation at level 80 than they do at level FOUR, that you don't want to "play a healer to heal," you want to play a healer to be the laziest person in the party.
