#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

Yoshi.P and the dev team clearly stated multiple times healers are suppose to mostly heal. (Their words not mines)

Heal what exactly? There's not a lot of incoming damage in most content in the game. Sure, there are rare exceptions like Tower of Zot, Holminster Switch, the occasional Extreme, Savage, and Ultimate fight. But incoming damage is rather low for most content of the game. If anything, this movement is uniting two groups of healer players: those that want to heal more and those that want more DPS / Support abilities. The Role didn't offer much in EW in terms of gameplay and Dawntrail isn't looking good either as Xeno proved you can clear a DT dungeon without a healer in the media tour.

I'd guess they're talking about the experience of your typical, average player playing with other typical, average players. For example, I heal through the daily roulettes, and my standard experience involves having to be on my toes to keep tanks alive (and occasionally DPS who seem to be doing everything possible to die). What a streamer who's a veteran at the game is capable of doing doesn't necessarily mean anything for what the typical player will experience.

My experience is completely turning my brain off to let a warrior/paladin solo heal and play the game themselves, and if I get one of the other two tanks then I... just press regen on them at the start, toss an aquaveil/exaltation out if I'm really feeling spicy, and then... go back to mashing gravity. For bossfights I wait until we've gone through 2, maybe 3 raidwides before pressing opposition or asylum to heal up what wasn't healed by my healing that doubles as dps. This is basically every roulette experience I've had for the last three years. Just begging for something to go wrong so I have to pay attention even remotely.

My job should not only be fun when people are fucking up, sorry.
