    Not really. I have done plenty of pulls where the healers doesn't have to heal me once. Same with bosses. I am an average tank, what does that say?

    In this thread - multiple people thinking "because I can do something, everyone else must be able to" and then insulting the world when it's different when what they can see form their own front porch.

    Filled to the brim with salt, vinegar, and unpopular opinions.

    Nobody told me Fantasias were addictive, now I have to go to rehab.

    you're missing the entire point.

    every job and role should be engaging for everyone in all content.

    the biggest issue here is there is too much healing responsibility taken away from healers and we have gained nothing in return for losing a lot of responsibility in 95%+ of content as its released.

    tanks still have to mitigate and have actual dps rotations and an over abundance of not just self sustain but party sustain

    dps still have actual dps rotations even going so far as to add more aoe options so theyre always engaging with their kits then on top of that more and more sustain for the party and themselves added

    healers get more and more heals they never use outside of rare occasions having a really inexperienced party or very high end content (of which most can be healed OGCD) and have gained nothing in return for the role responsibility that we keep losing.

    its nothing about well i can do it. its more about that the average player can do it.

    with a good tank healers dont have to use any heals at all now.

    thats just bad design

    I've seen many other WAR and PLD do the same when I was playing healer.

    And for casual player a tank/healer/dps role with very strong specializations is the optimal way to balance the game. That gives far more freedom to make sure any player (from the most casual to the best ultimate raider) still has a relevant place in any team content in a wide variaty of difficulties. Since you're such a brave and valiant protector of the super casuals playerbase, I'd expect you to be a big supporter of the strike.
