Oh, and 1-2-3-1-2-3-1-2-3 is just so much more exciting, right?
What you seem oblivious to is that knowing the right DPS key to hit depends on the combat situation, and can change pretty quickly, even if you do spam the one you pick until the situation changes. Understanding that and adapting to it on the fly takes some intelligence you don't seem to have.
Have you ever out-parsed good DPS on a trash pull? If not, you're a disgrace to SGE, because if you understood all the ramifications of your kit, you typically would. The exception is when the mobs are too brutal and/or the tank too squishy, then you have to adapt, heal a bit more and DPS a bit less. That's part of the fun: watching the tank's health bar (and your own) there among the sea of red mob health bars (generally from straight above the fight), evaluating the rate of change in each bar to see when you need to toss off an oGCD heal or mitigation (or, in the worst case, stop DPSing and just heal). And all the while watching for telegraphs of AoEs you need to dodge, and keeping half on eye on the health bars and any debuffs showing in the party list.
Ever done that? If not, why not?
If so, where you bored by it?
I genuinely enjoy running SGE. You don't. But rather than asking:you just insult me. Not that I care about that: it's not like you're anyone whose opinion I value, after all, and when the only response you have to my remarks is a personal attack, to me that says you've lost the argument.
- What is Silverbane doing that I'm not?, or
- How might Silverbane's reasons for enjoying the game be different from mine?
So why don't you ask questions like the above? Are you afraid of the answers?
And why are you so desperate to convince other people that, in a world where people can all have legitimately different values and goals, no one with a brain can possibly honestly enjoy running an FFXIV healer?
Oh, and don't even try to argue I don't have a brain. I clearly do, as my writing demonstrates.
