    That's cute. Doesn't matter if you're the proest healer in the world if 1 attack will just interupt every spell and they can do it while moving. I'm glad you were lucky enough to not being focused the whole frontline.

    Issues = Stacking of healers in Frontlines
    Possible solution = Focusing one healer
    Focusing one healer = other healers being free to do as they wish
    Free healers = heals the healer being focused.

    Solution deemed a failure. Try again.

    DDs focusing on a single target => DPS > HPS
    DPS > HPS => HP_t = 0, t -> ∞

    Proposal deemed acceptable.

    He doesn't mind us conducting trials so close to his bazaar, so long as he's properly compensated... Yes, Portus, we pay him in sorcery-blasted bird flesh. - Cocobygo

    This part of your equation is flawed.

    HPS will ALWAYS exceed DPS, especially if the healers are unburdened with interrupts.

    The only possible solution to a healer-heavy party is to have one DD each focus on one healer each, but good luck getting that kind of coordination with randomly matched groups!

    Always doesn't mean what you think it means.

    As SCH sometimes I receive a lot of attacks but I'm totally terrified by FLARE.
    It can lower your HP almost to half of your maximum,
    other healer can heal but god, if 3 dps will hit almost together that healer will die
    really fast, also 1 player has anyway to AoE healers, just to interrupt some cast.

    I noticed that usually 2 or 3 player focus a random player and not the marked, THAT
    is the problem XD
