    Also even this healing situation is too much for weaker healers in PF. What is Yoshi-P to do to then, since healer population needs to be big enough it must be made even more accessible? Add even more healing tools to other jobs and further dumb down healing?
    Have you seen PF the role is already dead. Why are you acting like doing anything to healers will completely ruin them, they are already ruined, nobody wants to play them. If you are in PF waiting you are waiting for a healer

    And healer DPS parses already factor in GCD healing, people just don’t like GCD healing because it isn’t really necessary in modern fights

    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

    Because there is not one reason people don't want to play healers, there are many.

    And unfortunately the JP complaints are different than yours so if SE will make changes based on that it won't turn out how you would expect.

    F. e.

    今回ヒールが相当に厳しい(天獄OH除算HPSで倍)なので
    週末の断章PTが出るたびにヒラ不足どんどん加速していくぞ
    4層まで安定で回せるヒラの絶対量が全く足りてない
    This time, healing is particularly tough (double the HPS needed, excluding Heavensfall OH), so every time a token farm party appears on the weekends, the shortage of healers keeps accelerating. There's absolutely not enough healers who can consistently manage up to the fourth phase."
    So they are complaining that its too hard to heal

    You used an example of an ultimate that actually has proper HPS checks given the tanks and healers don’t have overbloated kits for the most part at that level, I’m not quite sure what you intended from that example.

    And let’s say that example filtered down to JP PF for savage and they actually did move the game in a direction where the healer is functionally redundant and it makes the healer population explode. GOOD. I’m not selfish if the majority of healer mains want the healer role to be redundant then they can have it, I’m simply pushing back against your weird assumption that we can’t do anything to healers because it’ll break the role when the role is well and truly broken already

    Its google translate gimmick, some slang. Maybe they are comparing HPS checks to Heawensward?

    Context is about current savage. Its from thread complaining about healer shortage in JP PF.

    You misunderstand me, I am behind healer strike complaints (but not strike itself) and I think healers right now are boring and need help.

    Just my fix for the problem is fundamentally different, I don't want game rework, just better reward for optimizing than more glare.
