Has anyone quit healing?

Harsh as theg may sound i technically agree if people wanna dps more than heal or not heal at all well the answer always been there tank or dps role.

"If you want to dps go play a dps" is no longer a valid response after countless threads of "please give us more engaging gameplay than spamming one button for 10 minutes" followed by countless examples of high end content requiring barely any healing.

You are completely missing the point because you're reacting to a statement nobody ever made.
Nobody said "I want to play healer so I can dps".
Fact is, and you can try to deny it all you want, that we are forced to chose between doing nothing and dpsing the majority of the time because all content, including Ultimate, doesn't have a healing requirement that is high enough to spend the majority of our time healing.
We always have signifcant downtime in all content and all we can do during that downtime is 1111 ad nauseum.
When people ask for more dps options they don't do it because they secretly want to play dps; that is nonsense some people make up just so they can throw "just go play dps hehe" in our faces. They do it because they want to play healer, they want to heal but they have simply accepted that the devs absolutely refuse to increase healing requirement.
So how else are we supposed to fill our downtime? Picking our noses? Doing our nails? Watching our potted plants grow? More dps options is the only option we have left to ask for.

I just don’t want to press the same button 120+ times in a 10 minute fight.

How is that hard to grasp?

this is how it feels

Excuse me sweaty, it sounds like you just want to DPS and I believe healers should HeAL OnLY. Of course I DPS in the two GCDs I can barely find during an entire MSQ solo duty, nobody's saying you shouldn't deal damage at all but you should also be healing. I know you said you heal your party and are bored afterward, but you shouldn't be bored because you should be healing after you're done healing, duh.

I invite anyone who wants to link this post to do so, I can even edit it to cover any of the few infinitely recycled anti-role-improvement points I forgot. It'll conserve typing time that you should be spending healing only.

If people want to heal when not needed or not dps at all as healer, the answer has always been there, tank or dps role. You're wasting a healer slot if you refuse to use your full toolkit to support the party. Go play dps if you want to tunnel vision on one thing.

i play sage it has enough dps buttons for me no issue with it cause of oh toxi phelgma and that 90 thingy i didnt say i just heal only.i both heal and dps equally but i wont repeat this over 1000 times cause did already over tons of times. I just play the game that is 12 years old and stop complaining and accept what it is. I just sit now and lol over the same 10k+ healer complains wanting more dps. I doubt any healer raiding will seriously just sit there and heal..thats ofc a instant boot

oh easy to use entire kit as sage or healer specially when its paper dark night with their lack of defenses vs the other 3 tanks.

What do you think players have been doing for years now? The devs don't give a shit or deliberately twist questions to give non-answers in their Q&As. Players ask for more outgoing damage in raids so they can heal more? It will overwhelm lower skilled players. Players want more DPS options to fill in the downtime? Bad Healers will get harassed for not using their kit because adding an extra DoT is so difficult for these Slyphies. Players want to feel more engaged playing their Job? Tough shit, Healers have been designed to be the basic bitch role that cannot fail in order to reduce stress for the bad players and to attract people that literally don't even like Healer anyways. Players are bored as shit with Glare spam? Go do Ultimate, it's totally fine there /s. So yeah, players have been telling the devs, and the the response has been either silence or the middle finger.
