    Truly the greatest MMO community in the known universe, WoW could never.
    And then some makes a thread mocking this one.

    Taken from that thread:

    But, if the issue is glaring enough, hopefully they fix the healer role and tank/dd role gets a nerf in sustain. Until then healerless party only, let's go.
    It's ironic that they don't realize starting up such threads does indeed support this one because if #FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE didn't have any traction, nobody would even bother to start up a thread like that in the first place. I also know that XIV content creators are always looking for anything juicy to talk about, and one or two of them may very well pick this subject and create a video about it.

    It's only day 2, and I don't have a crystal ball. Perhaps this will fizzle out, and perhaps it won't. I know I will continue to do my part and either way I am very thankful to those of you who are willing to take a stand and/or show your support.

    In addition, on the Discord and in this thread I have caught wind that solo activities will be difficult due to how boring it is to do it as a healer. I feel you, but often sacrifice is required in order to protest. Leveling healers to 100 outside grouping will be inconvenient to say the least, but stand strong. It can be done.

    It would probably be best to link the discord in the first post with an edit, that way it does not get further buried.

    I placed a link to the Discord in my sig. Though, I am not sure how the invite system works. Hopefully this will be helpful.

    I would still put it in the original post, it could otherwise be seen as your personal discord if it's in your signature.

    So much this. Drama gets SO many clicks on social media, and to have that drama be a STRIKE!? You'd be an idiot not to capitalize off it.

    I'll give healer a try up until level 100. If I do not like it, I'm off the role, entirely.

    It's drama about healers though, a role a lot of content creators ignore themselves.

    Xeno did make a video covering every role except healer for DT, so you are certainly correct for the most part, but there are some pretty big Youtubers who do cover healers. Also, no healers means queue times are going to be absolutely fucking ABYSMAL. This is why I feel so confident in the strike; you get value when you become something the community can't ignore.
