Has anyone quit healing?

Yes, I quit the role.
I'm done.

On paper, it doesn't bother me to do dps during "dead times" when I play healer.
BUT if the game asks me to spend the majority of my time doing dps in 99% of the game content, then : no (regardless of what my dps options are)

Besides, I have a big concern on how the mp jauge is integrated in the gameplay now.
It's simple : even when I actually have to focus on healing (in that 1% content), I pretty much never have to look at it...

To me, mp management is essential in the interest I have to play healer in the first place.
If the game allows me to spam constantly my biggest heals without having to worry at all, then again : no. It's mindless.


Now I'm trying to find interest in the tank role, but if it doesn't match with me, I may go play something else...

-snip for brevity-

Have you considered black mage? I was just trying to think of jobs with MP management and... well, for SMN and RDM it's a nonissue except if you're trying to rez just after being rezzed or spamming a bunch of rezzes. But for black mage, there's actually a minigame to it at least.

But unfortunately if you don't like it, well, you won't really find that kind of "using this big move now means I can't later" style of resource management in FF14 generally. FF14's all about uptime and constantly attacking.
