#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[Myrany]

It turns out that when the dev team dumbs down a role, dummies make up more of the role's population. Dummies are attracted to the role because it becomes a ticket to getting carried through fights, and skilled players abandon the role because they don't want to be carried. The resulting poor performance is then used by dummies and non-healers to clamor for further dumbing down in a never-ending ouroboros of stupidity.

I have never asked for dumbing down healers. I have supported your efforts in this thread. Simply commented on how sad it is that things have come to this point.

Trust me I understand the amount of hate that comes from being dumbed down. I played summoner before all the big changes and loved it. Now I rarely touch it. Getting your class gutted is never fun. Being ignored by the devs for years after the gutting is worse.

I wasn't arguing against you, or saying that you were asking for that. Just venting some frustration at the devs' bizarre insistence on designing for people with room-temperature IQs.

"room temperature" might be very generous on the part of who the dev's are designing for.
