Healers need an overhaul

[Nizzi]

I enjoy a diverse range of activities.

I'm currently waiting for my spouse and our friend to catch up with me on the MSQ so we can do the next dungeon together, standing in Hawker's alley and working on my glam as I write this - one of the joys of having 5 large 4K/QHD monitors hooked to the two GPUs in my system. My spouse and I are on our fourth characters running through the MSQ, and this time we're taking it slow and relaxed.

Edit to add: I'm also eating mint chocolate chip ice cream.

Thank you for volunteering up that information, but I did not ask.

Just correcting your mistaken assumptions.
But if you don't want to be corrected, shut up.

Edited to add: I'm in Azys Lla at the moment. On SCH.

Yeah, there's a constructive contribution to the thread -- NOT.
You had to respond, but you couldn't respond to what I wrote; I wonder if you even know what a strawman argument is.

But, compelled to post, you just post insults and blather about what you weren't going to do, and nothing on topic at all. Was it worth it to you? Are you proud of what you've done?

True, nothing you posted recently was constructive. You just seem to think you can attack me with impunity.

That's fine. The whole thread is useless anyway. SE isn't going to bother taking in all this whining.

This "useless" thread has got you in here losing your mind and bumping it for us, so thank you for your service o7

Big true. At the end of the day the devs aren't going to read each post. They'll see a post named "Healers need an overhaul" with 53 pages and go from there. Maybe read the first page at most.

Well, they're certainly not going to care about you, your "spouse" or your "friend," much like we certainly don't. In that approach, I'm certain we all not only support Squeen, but we unite in it.
Nevertheless, Healers still require an overhaul, better still if it actively repels people with your purposefully disruptive behavior from taking interest in it. We certainly don't need anyone bringing grief to healers, especially while they're still in a perilously shallow state.

To that end, I recommend anyone actually wishing to further the discussion on the state of healers to simply add Silverbane to their ignore list. If you don't know how to achieve that, you simply need to go to their forum profile by clicking their name, and the option to ignore them should appear. After selecting the option, you'll need to confirm it on the next page, and, afterward, their posts should appear with a message that indicates a post was made but only by someone of no actual significance.

If... the healer is overhauled and become harder to play, then say goodbye to the duty roulette because no one will play this role and the newcomer will afraid to play and try the role.

I have bad news for you, buddy boy: a lack of healers in the duty roulette would mean more people would start trying to play them, because they're seeking rewards. People are generally spurred onward by greed and promise of rewards, so guess what "healer in need" statuses in the Duty Roulette mean and do for the healer role right now?

Well, they're certainly not going to care about you, your "spouse" or your "friend," much like we certainly don't.

The difference is, you desperately want them to care about your opinion, and I don't.
I don't need them to care, because I'm enjoying their game they way they intended it.

To that end, I recommend anyone actually wishing to further the discussion on the state of healers to simply add Silverbane to their ignore list.

Go ahead. You're not my target audience. I'll be happy to not have you distort and misrepresent what I post.

It is what it is. I'll adapt.

so guess what "healer in need" statuses in the Duty Roulette mean and do for the healer role right now?

I enjoy a short queue time as much as anyone, but they seem to be more important to you than to me. That said, I queue as tank and DPS too; sometimes depending on what's in need, sometimes on what class I want to level, and sometimes depending on what my friends want to queue as. So your prediction of queue time doom for healers doesn't matter to me.

Maybe it's playing with close RL friends that makes the difference. We laugh, we joke, we point out beautiful things and interesting glamours ... every duty finder run is fun, even the CFs. Having fun is what we're here for, and we're good at finding it. Better than you are, is my guess.

Meanwhile, I made some constructive points to highlight the root of the problem and it got completely ignored over pointless bickering.

Is anyone else willing to ask the big big questions though? Because this lala over here is most curious about why they have five monitors attached to two gpus in one single system. What are we talking here? Editing rig? Graphics design? Certainly hope tis production oriented system or this has to be one of most strangest flexes I hath ever seen.

Can one even run FF14 over Nvlink? Know it crashes with most benchmark software. Post really carries some of that ye ol "Well my daddy's house has *insert bombastic claim here*" energy.
