    This is only the recent tier but fight design has always been like this ever since ARR. The encounters all follow a tight script with hardly any deviation from them. Not only that but the damage is scripted as well. Let's say a raidwide aoe does 30k. Doesn't matter if it's the first time that it is casted or the 10th time its casted, that damage always hovers around 30k before mitigations are in place. So not only can ogcds be planned around this but also party mitigation as well with things like reprisal, addle, feint, the ranged mit and the healer mits as well.
    P3S Ot cleave and p4s p2 are a nightmare to heal. While a lot of healers are willing to complain how easy it is, almost none would be willing to do it on min ilvl how the fight was intended.Those that week 1/2 cleared the tier at 580 have my respect, that should have a title. Raidwides hit so hard they can oneshot if mitigation isn't planned.

    At the savage level there isn't a raidwide that shouldn't be mitigated by at least 20% or more. Reprisal / Feint / Addle / Shields / healer 10% mitigation

    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]
