That's exactly why i went through EW as SCH and SMN for all solo duty fightsDefinitely a valuable perspective. Healers are incredibly unfun in the MSQ solo duties as well and it feels like nobody at SE has thought of this as the game moves towards a more "solo play" focus. I played through all of EW on SCH, and the final solo duty at the end of the story made me laugh with how awful it felt. It wasn't hype, it wasn't satisfying; all I could think about was how much fun it would've been if I was playing a job that wasn't spamming their 1 spell over and over. Broil Broil Broil Broil Broil Broil Broil at what was supposed to be the climax of a 10 year long story arc.




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]
I just wanted to end the first arc on SCH same as I began back in ARR, and because of the Roe SCH in the lore that has ties to Sharlayan as mentioned in the lore for the ARR SCH relic The Last Resort more than anything. I'd have done it all on SCH if the solo fights on healer wouldn't have been so dull as I correctly assumed.
