I don't mean to crap on anyone, as I understand some people take longer to learn than others, but there comes a point in the game where you should have a basic understanding of your class. And I'm just saying, if people already can't handle the "boring, lackluster" way healers currently play, I can only imagine what it would be like if the rotation were more complex.
I'll give an example from today. I was running as PLD in a mid-60 dungeon, and on the first pull, I exhausted all my CDs, as well as Hollowed and STILL DIED. The healer wasn't holying, they didn't regen, they didn't benison, benediction, asylum, or assize. All they casted was Stone IV, medica II, and the very occasional cure II. In fact, pretty much the entire dungeon, I was only getting healed by the RDM.
