Look man, I need to weave something between my million Glare casts, it's either this (which I would like to think, along with everyone else echoing the sentiment, stirs up enough noise that the devs are, at the very least, unable to say 'see everyone loves current healer design' without a big western-public backlash), or more recently, clicking to do something in OSRS like cut tree or fish. That's pretty damning for 'how engaging is healer' really isn't it, that there's people (not just me) who alt tab mid-GCD or watch netflix on 2nd monitor? It's not like EX roulette hits hard enough to require our full attention, or even 'any' of our attention.

Maybe I should weave something more productive between Glares, maybe learning a language or something. Imagine if I were to learn fluent Japanese, specifically to ask Yoshi-P, 'yo when are you fixing healer engagement, and no weaseling out of answering with some BS about "oh but tanks too..." we don't need to hear it. Healers, fix, when', no 'lost in translation', no 'cut 2/3 of Recon's question off and miss ALL of the context'

As for that last bit, I don't think 'mental health issues' is a reason for holding opinions that would be fairly obviously detrimental to the game's design. Heck I've probably got mental health issues of some kind, but I suggested a couple ideas that, by and large, seemed to be received positively here. Well, positively by people who partake in even trace amounts of optimization on the healers. To be fair, I did go to uni to study this kind of thing, and how to make games, so I have a little bit of background. Not much, but it's something, and might slightly explain why 'Samantha idea actually not complete trash whoa'.

Yo SE, I'm still down to do all the potency balancing on the WHM/SGE ideas, you'll have to come up with a good AST one yourself though cos I don't play it much now, I got boomer hands and the APM gives me joint pain if I do too much prog on it
