Ahh but he removed that from his sig so now it's fair game

I mean, he's not wrong in some regards. I am pretty stupid at times. But, even so, I have the presence of mind, and knowledge of game design principles to understand that 'making it damage neutral to spam 'Cure, Cure, Cure, Misery' on loop is a bloody stupid idea'. From MP economy balancing, to how much extra sustain that provides 'for free', to the fact that your damage would be entirely sourced from a 1240p move (meaning you're ENTIRELY at the mercy of Crit RNG). Seems like one of those ideas that was not thought out beyond the original 'oh this feels like it'd be a good idea'. And then, after he calls me out for homogenization (because I suggested a 0-100 gauge, something done by one other healer so far, and SE hasn't exactly done a great job with it), he suggests 'not-Eukrasia' for WHM to use a Lily to make the regular GCDs instantcast. Like how E.Prog and E.Diag are instantcast? But I guess this doesn't count because Eukrasia is free and WHMukrasia would have a cost attached? I think me and him are working from two different dictionaries because his definitions of things seem a bit... different

As for the original post of 'WHM needs to stay boring and braindead so people who put in no effort can purple parse' (or whatever the exact wording was), I'd assume that to mean 'so that players can hit whatever buttons in whatever order, and still get told they're a good player congratulations we're so proud of you', which... I'd say the 'Blood Lily is nourished by any GCD heal' idea would lead to that particular result? Regen, Cure2, Cure3, Medica2, the Lily heals, just hit whichever one you like, at any time you like. Even if it's overheal, who cares, just whack it and press Misery every 4th GCD
