What do I do for this GCD?

The DPS and Tank answer is always the same: push a damage button. And the entire point of a rotation is that there's not even a choice which damage button it is. It's already been chosen by the rotation; you need only do the right thing.

Healers, in theory, might have to choose between pushing a damage button vs. a healing button. In practice, depending on the content you're running, the answer is very lopsided, and within those two answers (damage or healing), the choices are limited/obvious. Hence my previous response.
That’s a core problem with the way 14’s jobs work as a collective and I don’t think “every GCD there is only button that is the correct button to press” should be used as a way to not get more damage options on healers

If you don’t like rigid rotations then you functionally don’t like any job in this game, healers have extremely rigid rotations they are just also a single button
