Has anyone quit healing?

[Grimoire-M]

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.

While BLM has MP management it’s more of a sequencing barrier than an actual resource to be managed. Anyone seeking more attrition will find better healer gameplay in FTL. It’s why I value Energy Drain as much as I do. The nominal DPS tax is literally the only thing that makes me care about being efficient at all.
