Raising healing requirements for newer content alone won't also improve older content

I’d be absolutely cool with this as an alternative route to go down. Even going the route of AV’s opening room where there’s just far too much trash to handle in one pull and adds are legitimately dangerous would be a great step towards making dungeons more engaging again.

SE seemed to loose the courage to make dungeons even remotely challenging by design after Pharos Sirius though. A big shame in my eyes =/

Aurum Vale, Pharos Sirius, Steps of Faith, Shinryu, allowing very easy mode on scripted MSQ fights.

Any time the majority of the playerbase faces a modicum of difficulty they whine to no end.

And hence we always arrive at this point where as healers we ask for better DPS options. It doesn't make anything harder if you don't want it to. Every other solution will make healing harder, which I am happy for and would prefer before the balance is way off.

Given their cracking down on players telling other players how they should play and putting down other players, I feel like the line "but some people expect healers to DPS and put that pressure on them" shouldn't apply anymore. And I don't think attitudes should affect job design. I'm happy letting people play the job the way they like as long as they keep the party alive best they can. Though my expectation for DPS will be at higher end content. But this is because DPS checks are tighter and enrage timers are a thing.
