This is effectively what the lead designer of this game told Healers in the latest live letter.
Consider if he had said that about your role for a second and how you would feel.
Forget the leveling experience, it doesn't matter.
Forget dungeons up to 90, they don't matter.
Forget normal raids, EX's, and Savage, they don't matter.
If you want your job to be engaging, play Ultimate, the hardest content in the game that only a few percentage of actual players do.
I mean.. if fates, dungeons, alliance raids, extremes, savages, hunting, pvp and ??? feel boring to you, maybe you are, in fact, on that level as healer where you are more than ready for ultimate?? Just a thought.
I didn't say that, he inferred it.
HE thinks that if you want engagement you should be playing ultimate content, therefore anything other than that doesn't provide engagement.
Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
