Healers get blamed for everything, but the developers gut healers in response.

That's why PF is in shambles, they haven't had to deal with this in ages, unless they actually, ironically, play pvp.

Devs will probably scale back tbh because JP is complaining. LOL

Sometimes it's just the community's fault. There's no future for this game anymore since SE actively chased off actual gamers and intentionally attracted people who just want to mindlessly ERP and crit farm.

JP is complaining? How much? Is it one sided? Where is this happening?
Either way I couldn't say I'm exactly surprised. Following instructions is something they love doing, without going into cultural cliches, seeing how their classes at school go into chaining high paced memorization games is fascinating to me. The way XIV is designed makes a lot of sense under that angle to me, it really truly fits this mindset.

I believe the new trial
If you run through the middle you get a bleed that tears through your health

While that is pretty spicy, you can still heal it pretty easily. It gets really annoying if multiple people get it.

I wouldn't say they're necessarily complaining about the fight itself, but there's 10 pages of annoyance about the state of job balancing, M6S being 6 instead of 7/8, controller targeting, etc. and knowing how lazy SE is with contentious issues like these they'll probably never attempt something similar again

EDIT: Well, there actually are a few highly-rated posts that are complaining about the content itself; Like "Content that is too difficult, like Cruiser Savage, is simply not fun." which has 62 likes. It's probably cooked

From the limited reading I could gain from that given google translate is terrible at Japanese it seems alot of complaints are directed at the idea that the concept behind the adds phase isn’t necessarily flawed it’s the fact that cleave balance itself in this game is bad

I can’t really comment on 6 vs 7 I’ve never really cared if a preceding fight is harder than a succeeding one

I mean when you look at the certain website and see the spread of healer dp, it is kinda staggering. Tanks are about a 600 difference betweenb the top and bottom. Healers, however, are 2600 difference and it's not an easy thing to solve, given that sch only has 2 aoes, one of which is on a 2 min cd. SGE could see some cleave reductions getting changed but who knows? It will most likely come during when the exploration zone or something for any sort of changes to jobs.

Edit: Also if SCH gets picked by the jabberwocky, they are absolutely boned for the whole fight after that.

From what I've heard 7S is easier to learn but the overall DPS check is stricter (Add phase not withstanding).
