Healing Focus or DPS Focus

[Allegor]

There really is no justification for why tank rotations are actually rotations while healers get nothing

Pick one side or the other, either tanks should be slapped by the boss so hard they are using GCD’s to cast defensives and can barely do damage or give healers similar damage options

The same “I’m a healer I want to heal” can be applied to tanks “I want to tank and hold agro not do damage” yet tanks aren’t punished for this segment of their playerbase in their design options

Not only are tanks expected to hold aggro and be wary of when to use their own defensives, they also get to assist the party if/when needed with healing and mits (specially PLD and moreso WAR), and have a handful of dps buttons to keep them engaged, all the while thinking that the average healer player can't handle half of that without getting overwhelmed.

I will never shut up about how absolutely patronizing this double standard is.

ALSO: seeing the new tank actions, only WAR seems to be getting some sort of defensive shield, while the other 3 get even more damage skills! exactly what they (don't) need!
