Actually that’s not quite trueThe "give" is that we're not playing a Healer role - which is going to be in high demand in a week and change. You'll still have Healers, but they may not be that good depending on the skill level of your healer. Let alone, it's not the first time we've had instant changes in a whole patch. Warrior is the only job that has gotten ability changes mid-expansion, namely to Shake it Off. PLD got reworked to fit the WAR paradigm that has cannibalized everything a Tank represents. If they're going to change anything? They need to start with healers since they've been hurt the most by the changes since Shadowbringers.
SCH got in patch ability changes
It got nerfed
You know the thing WAR mains would rather burn the game down than get done to them
That’s not the point I was makinguh no, you are wrong, I know a ton of healer mains. They aren't going to strike. I've been playing this game since beta. We have a massive influx of new players from xbox, returning players from breaks. There will be plenty of healers in the game as always. People are not abandoning the role at the rate you claim, if that was the case there would be issues period getting in to all content for both tanks AND dps and that's not the case, queue times for content are unchanged.
As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.
I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess
