    Okay sorry, I'll list a few more mechanics in this expansion early on (so not months later) that is "remotely taxing to healing/tanking kits"

    1. Life's agonies (no mickey ast)
    2. Curtain Call
    3. Intermission in DSR
    4. Giga 2 and AM2 in DSR
    4. Literally all of P8S phase 2, furthermore the entire Abyssos tier had an actual PF healer shortage because of the dots attached to raidwides and tankbusters
    5. All of 6 of TOP
    7. Any criterion savage

    Healers deserve more buttons to make gameplay more interesting; it's far from one of the only situations where your healing and mit is "taxed"

    Most of those are way more dependent on mitigation than actual healing. Life's agonies is hard on SCH+SGE I'll give you that, but otherwise lol.

    Yeah I replied because that poster asked for healing and tanking kits. They didn't specify raw literal healing. I think the only examples of actual hard raw healing this entire expansion is life's agonies without healer lb, p8s, and criterion

    Which is in itself a huge problem because mitigation is not controlled by the healer, at least, in a good static it shouldn't be.

    We need way more mechs that require raw literal healing and/or shielding like o8s heartless archangel, o4s white hole, p3s life's agonies, etc.

    There are a lot of ways to make you feel like a healer in encounters but they just don't seem to want to do it.

    Is it that wrong to ask for a little bit more enjoyment for healers? I'd like to press more than 1-1-1 in my normal roulettes.
    I sadly do not have the time to do harder content. I'm not a healer main, but I do play all roles. And I do see a need of change for healer kits, especially for easier content.

    edit: sorry I didnt mean to quote you, but yes there are multiple ways to tackle this
