    I don't really remember that many people saying it's faster, but I do remember a lot of people saying it's pretty sad that it's possible in the first place

    This is the reason why its a point of contention. I'm sorry, no trinity game (healer/tank/dps) should allow one of the trinity to be irrelevant, in this case healers, because the outgoing damage is that friggin low. Even if we discard W2W I'm pretty sure on my GNB I can solo an EW boss. In fact, I have! From above 50% hp.

    That's not a sign of good skill expression. That's a sign the devs have made healing far too low for w/e reason they claim to be a good one.

    I'm tired of being told to wait for post-patches and expansions for fixes and increased healing requirements that are never coming. Healers are not fun in all forms of content like all jobs should be, they're replaced by tanks and dps due to low healing requirements and their dps kit is small for 0 reason, when in the past we had more options and handled things just fine. I refuse to play healer in roulette come DT. I refuse to heal EXs, I refuse to go into Savage, and I am boycotting Ultimate.

    It does seem like the lower dungeons, after the stat squish, were rebalanced to the mini ilvl instead of the max.

    I got put into a Hero's Gauntlet as a Warrior where the group died at 50% and I proceeded to finish the dungeon, but there were multiple "oh sh!t" moments where I got REALLY low HP because the boss was hitting that hard (glad I keep potions on hand).

    Meanwhile in EW, if in that same situation, I wouldn't even go below 50% hp.

    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]
