I'm bored when I heal because I need more complex DPS rotations

[Aravell]

I've noticed that people who try and defend current healer design always nitpick the "press 1 button" line. It's like they can't defend anything else, so they just focus on that one line and say you're just lying and exaggerating and it's not that bad.

Makes you think, don't it?

It’s also funny when people act like phlegma or assize is “another button” to press when there is not a single piece of interesting interaction they actually do with them (assize isn’t even a GCD), really the only remotely interesting healer damage button is energy drain because that actually changes how you approach the class (ShB lily’s would have counted as well)

I had a trigger happy medica 2 spammer in euphorsyne yesterday to the point the only healing I did in the entire fight was Eos embrace, I still only cast energy drain 1/8 th of the amount of times I cast broil and you cast energy drain almost 3 times as much as phlegma or assize, they are not remotely good as “meaningful damage buttons”

Don't you get it? You actually have to move closer to the enemy to cast Phlegma. That means it's special.
