    Even if they were consistent in their desire to apply their philosophy of “one person should never be a failure point” across all content we can still call out that their solution of making tanks immortal and healers useless is the worst physical way they could have done this

    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

    100% free to call it out and offer suggestions no one is saying that you should not voice your concerns. I think what people that are confused by the strike are really saying at least what I am saying is. The changes have to make sense within the current frame work and vision they have shown. For whatever reason they don't want to give healers more DPS buttons or some sort of combo action. They took away tools which I also do not agree with.

    For example I would love for aggro to go back to being a group effort but I know that goes against the vision of SE and will never happen, just like I also wish we got old SMN back or a dot style caster added. It seems they want to move away from that play style. Hell, I miss TP and the funny memes with AST haste cards.

    SE clearly has a vision one I do not agree with and clearly many others do not, voicing our concerns is one thing but another thing we do have to consider is that like it or not many people do see to enjoy the current direction. Like I get the healer strike is a thing but personally have not seen much of a difference in numbers but we will have to wait till later to see. Same with tanks I miss old aggro management but for the most part it seems many are fine with the new system.

    End of the day it is possible the game may no longer be for certain people or roles are not meant for certain players.

    their vision needs to be shared with the rest of the class. I for one, would love to know if they intend for healers to have a future or grind it out under Yoshi P's sneaker soles.

    Would be nice to know, yes. Do I personally think they will ever come out and say it outright? Not really, but that is also part of the reason why I play this game in bursts I do not stay subbed like I do for WoW. Game just does not have enough to keep me subbed long term.

    Edit: All that being said I did have a lot of fun healing the new raid with AST and I am looking forward to savage but that could also be I have not played the game in over 6 months so I am not as burnt out as others.

    pretty sad that WoW made a statement aboutt tanks and healers before SE even acknowledges the issue. and that they made a statement about it. SE lost a big opportunity there.
