    so, how would you solve the issue? you cant delete tanks from the game as they are


    also just play tank yourself, if you want to be one of the cool kids. Leveling it takes no time, you dont even need gear inside

    The issue is the way gold farming as a concept is structured because it can be cheesed by invulns (which is exactly what it does)

    As a stopgap solution you could just make enemies that are over 6 knowledge levels above you hit through invulns which removes the tank Strat (I’m not saying this would be fun but it would return the design to the “intended” chaining of normal mobs)

    But really gold should be built around something to do with distribution and use of phantom jobs. Like thief sorta has something but imagine if you got gold pieces based on geos bell stacks or oracle could proc a gold fountain prophecy. Silver should level phantom jobs to funnel into gold farming, not nuke it with overpowered tanks

    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
