It's time to kill the argument that DPS abilities keep healers from healing.

The new 1.5s Cast time is such a double-edged sword.

Yes, it is undeniably a QoL improvement. It is now easier to weave your oGCD abilities into your Nuke button. WHM and SCH rejoice, they no longer have to annoyingly clip their GCD to weave into their nuke.

But that's the thing, before, they had to create that weaving space by utilizing a different spell to their nuke. Any instant spell. Be it Dia, a lilly spell, Ruin II, Biolysis etc.

It almost always came to a DPS loss, or clipping the DoT which felt awful and was innefficient. But it was a short but welcome (and gameplay-involved) respite in the 1111 spam.

Now, with Endwalker those problems are gone. The nuke spam will have no reason to cease. SCH will use Broil more than ever. And the awful and mindnumbingly boring rotation will become even more apparent.
