Healers need an overhaul

[Nizzi]

Yes I am bringing this back to the front because prior to the live letter, There was an interview that was translated over in the ffxivreddit discord and there was one thing that caught my eye.



Now it's going to be the one of the role actions with esuna, rescue or repose because ultimately those actions haven't seen much use, if any, this whole expansion and it make you wonder.

Behold, they've invented a dungeon where you have to GCD heal with Physick, Cure I, etc. We hope you enjoy the healer gameplay you've been asking for!

I would be furious lol. SE please just auto-morph those spells into their upgrades.

One suggestion I brought up a long time ago that's a few people have liked was removing Esuna and adding a trait that causes Cure/Physick/Benefic/Diagnosis to remove a debuff. It doesn't magically make this button amazing since there are less instances of Esuna mechanics introduced each expansion than there are major patches, but Esuna is still a needed action technically. This merges 2 almost never used buttons, clears up a bit of hotbar space for every healer, and allows you to do some chip healing whenever you do need to use Esuna.
