As a Conjurer, I can nuke better than most Thamaturges. I have heals to keep people alive, and I'm not afraid to use them, but I am not a healer.

I chose Conjurer specifically because it had access to healing and nukes. Specifically because it was very versatile. Hell, I chose this game because classes were so versatile. If they get rid of that versatility in favor of pigeon-holed roles, then they are throwing away the one good thing they did with FFXIV from the start.
