Yoshi-P: "If you want more engaging content, go play Ultimate"

[vetch]

Anyone who makes that kind of argument tends to be the one trying to turn FFXIV healers into something they're not. Healers in this game have always contributed to dps and used to have a decently complex damage kit to juggle while actually using GCD heals, most people are just asking for that design that they loved to come back.

If someone wants to mash heals instead, there are other MMOs that offer that kind of experience. FFXIV is not built for the attrition healing model.

Are there actually any modern MMORPGs that have healers healbotting and not contributing to damage? I am curious to see how they handle their healer gameplay.

Every game that I can think of either doesn’t have a trinity system, has healers who DPS, or healers who support via DPS buffs.

So which is it?

'Just go play another game' is already a bottom-tier argument since it demands that the offending players abandon their friend groups and the emotional attachments to their time investments, but if no modern MMOs cater to the healbot players anyway, it's absolutely reasonable for them to request any and all of them to start doing it.
