#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[Zaytex]

Xenosys finally reacted to the strike he caused, and what a shocker, he basically told healers to go play savage if they want to feel needed. Yes, you do need healers in high end content, but it doesn't change the core argument of how fucking boring they become after the initial prog of a fight. You have barely anything to optimise on this job. You mash one button over and over, and even in savage (as I have played it) you're just mashing glare for up to 30 seconds at a time before the next raid wide of body check mechanic hits.

What a shocker every youtuber who went to the media tour is basically dismissive of the healer strike and the general sentiment of healing in this game. I wonder why?

And let's not basically tell our midcore playerbase to fuck off to another game. This game is just two extremes now. Casual content is a complete snooze fest to anybody who puts a little bit of effort into the game, and extremes+ have gotten more and more difficult with current encounter design. Where's the middle ground?

Saying dungeons do not matter, or that literally nobody cares (he literally opened the thread where people care lol?) is just ridiculous too. We all have roullettes to do for tome-related gear and I'd like to do content which doesn't put me to sleep. I'd like for the healer role to be playable under savage and not miserable.

Woah woah now hold up buddy.

Healers are boring DURING the initial prog as well!
