On Zaleria at least. I haven't noticed a single thing the strike is allegedly trying to change.
I was just wondering, dont mind me.

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
Just wanted to post that people are refusing to heal and tanks won't voke when I'm tanking. I admit I'm not that good but I try to mitigate as best as I can and it's getting really annoying when I'm trying to get the mounts. I feel like I'm being blocked or people are gatekeeping certain classes at this point so I'm verry much fed up with this healer strike. FYI I have played the healer classes and at no point have I said welp I'm going to que for it and just dps.
I don’t understand.
Folks are just not playing a role that they no longer find fun. Now you’re left with the bads (mostly) & suddenly fed up with the healerstrike? If any, it just put more spotlights on the bad apples of the role now that more and more veterans are jumping ship. But suddenly it’s the veteran’s fault?![]()

Except we have plenty of people posting various screenshots throughout the length and breadth of this thread showing it constantly switching between healers and tanks most "in need" for PF, which...is just par for the course anytime in FFXIV (or any trinity-style MMO, for that matter). Individual snapshots in time don't really mean anything when other snapshots say different things.
I'll also point out that for the 7th week in a row now, when I just did DF queuing for the Raid series, I had instant queues on my PLD but 1-2 minute queues on my SCH.
Because it isn't accomplishing anything productive. The only thing it's effectively doing is letting people supporting it just frustrate themselves more.On Zaleria at least. I haven't noticed a single thing the strike is allegedly trying to change.
AIN has always been bias towards Tanks. We have just as many screenshots of Rivers of Green in PF so what's your point?Except we have plenty of people posting various screenshots throughout the length and breadth of this thread showing it constantly switching between healers and tanks most "in need" for PF, which...is just par for the course anytime in FFXIV (or any trinity-style MMO, for that matter).

Do you have any of these magical screenshots. Because all you have done in the last like 4 weeks on this thread is go “your anecdotes are meaningless and your data is flawed……but also here is my anecdote that is totally meaningful and is why I represent the silent majority that agrees with me”Except we have plenty of people posting various screenshots throughout the length and breadth of this thread showing it constantly switching between healers and tanks most "in need" for PF, which...is just par for the course anytime in FFXIV (or any trinity-style MMO, for that matter).

Because literally anytime you get a subpar healer is definitely the fault of those darn healer strikers who aren't even playing healers right now.I don’t understand.

The strike is just a very easy thing to blame, I guess, even if blaming it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
Oh come now, there's not nearly as much text.
Everyone should /ignore Striker, he's just a big talking pile of crap, the thread is way more bearable when you don't have to read his nonsensical stupidity every 50 pages.Do you have any of these magical screenshots.

I will summarize it for you (and it will serve as a reference for future complainers) :Just wanted to post that people are refusing to heal and tanks won't voke when I'm tanking. I admit I'm not that good but I try to mitigate as best as I can and it's getting really annoying when I'm trying to get the mounts. I feel like I'm being blocked or people are gatekeeping certain classes at this point so I'm verry much fed up with this healer strike. FYI I have played the healer classes and at no point have I said welp I'm going to que for it and just dps.
-1 : SE dumbs down healer jobs for 5 consecutive years, up to DT where the 4 jobs are carbon copies of each other, are extremely easy to play and have 0 room for skill expression and optimisation. And, in the same motion, they make healers irrelevant for any content outside ultimate/critrerion (M4S no healers no lb no gcd heal clear week 2).
-2 : Veteran healers bail out of a role that nowaday brings them nothing at all, either with the healer strike, or simply silently quitting (because tbh the state of the game is unbearable, I've left, many have left, and amongst the players I know still on the game, they are all using trusts and never DF anymore).
-3 : In DT, the vast majority of healers you'll encounter will be either/both lazy incompetent players, because by designing a job for single brain cell amoeba SE attracted a certain type of players to the role, or off role players (mainly DPS) who only see healers as a "fast queue without responsibilities".
It's both SE and these people who are the problem, not the healer strike, which only aimed to draw attention to this massive issue (which it did spectacularly well).
P. S. : Unless you're playing DRK, you mentionned farming mounts so I can assume you're talking about current EX and Savage, either pick up healer so healing isn't a problem or get better at tanking, because you litteraly don't need help to tank the current content. And if you have a TB swap and your cotank isn't voking ? Just invuln lmao, it's not like you need it anywhere else.
