#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

You summarized my point pretty well: The vast majority still needs a healer.
I agree that healer gameplay can get boring, and I feel they've been addressing that even before this all began, but they also can't flip the game over in a month and a half.
Let them cook lol.

I run a lot of huuh... not organized content, and man, it's chaos. The number of times I save lives with my pld and my war, and that is with healers. :P

Where are these fixes, these complaints have been present since literally everyone laughed at how easy and boring Titania and Innocence ex were with the “new and improved” healer kits 5 years ago and in that 5 years we have got………..1 nuke you press once every 2 minutes and more healing bloat

They can’t turn the game over in a month but they’ve had 5 years to do it

“Enforced burden because your average party isn’t good enough to dump you for more DPS but remember it’s perfectly feasible” isn’t a fantastic place for an entire role to find itself in

Them failstate dots feel like one step towards making healers more interesting, giving sge more dps options is another.

I don't feel like "they have had 5 years to do it" is accurate, endwalker was braindead for everyone, not just healers, and that was the problem there. :P
I certainly didn't feel myself that healing was getting boring until Subterrane dropped. Been healing since ARR.
Anyways, I said my piece, like I said, whichever way it swings, I don't really mind. Please all take a deep breath and have a nice night.

EW was braindead on execution for everyone (ie the game functionally has no failstates anymore) but DPS and tanks still had the inherent fun design of their DPS kit and not having another role do their main job in casual content. Healers had literally nothing in EW and this was after the negative reactions to the ShB changes to the SB kits, so they’ve had feedback to work with for healers for years now

The avoidable damage DOT’s in normal are good but they will be outscaled by tomorrow when the crafted gear drops. SGE got literally a single oGCD nuke per 60 seconds so I’m not sure where that counts as DPS options, the AOE DOT doesn’t even stack so it adds near nothing
