this is cool and all but WHM was the most fun healer out of the 3 while being the simplest.This is part of the endless, endless cycle that ensures White Mage is the boring and terrible healer. Has to be simple -> should have a lower skill ceiling -> doesn't deserve higher output for less effort -> should be weaker than the others -> no utility to make up for being weaker -> ends up being less engaging, weaker, and less desirable than the others -> "why oh why is White Mage in such a bad spot, nobody could possibly have predicted this. Maybe something should be done to fix this state of affairs!" -> But whatever you do, it'd better be simple!
Round and round and round the circular logic has gone for expansion after expansion.
And if we want to get picky: Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare while lowkey hoping someone fails a mechanic just to throw in a heal in between Glares. If anything, from a cynical point of view, that might as well be how the devs see it - they think most people fail mechanics consistently enough that healing is always needed, which would be....just a little patronizing




That's why rescue exists. Yank them into an AoE and suddenly "Oops! Gotta heal that!"And if we want to get picky: Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare while lowkey hoping someone fails a mechanic just to throw in a heal in between Glares.
