    Yes, there are a lot of players who doesn't understand their own job, no doubt of it. Healers are fine by itself, indeed. They need such survival ability in Wolf Den, I also agree. This is why that I bidding when they adjust Scholar in 2.35, they won't touch anything but tone down rune 2 and cleric stance as sub action.

    Yet, you have to admit that skill floor for FF14 Healers are much lower, average players can do much better on healer roles than dps roles. Also, JP recently has a developed a strategy for premade party of White Mage x 4, scholar x 2, summoner x1 and black Mage x 1. With this formation, all this party need to do is Zerging between outpost and nodes.

    You can't beat them in capture the flag, because of 4 whims at flag zone with holy spam. Even you manage to kill one of them with greatest teamwork you can show, they still have a lot of instant Rez to spam. Not sure if you notice, the healing potency is much higher than dps potency at ilvl80. Monk's ramping time is too long, drg has restricted directional requirement, bard need to be with in 15 yards for best range attack potency, balm requires long set up time. How effective is smn's dots against this setup. The only chance is you throw in 2 parties to over run them, but that is pretty much mean you are throwing away your game.

    There is not a learn to play issue but issue of job stacking. What is your resolution for this? I don't want to nerd healer' survival, so may be put back role restriction? Que will be horrible, especially for Primal Malestorm.

    I am not ranting, just point out the obvious and I would like to hear about your resolution for this type of healer stacking tactic.
