We should just have a macho fairy that just acts like a personal trainer. "Did I tell you to quit dpsing?! We don't quit in my gym maggot!!
Should be flexing the whole time as well. 10/10 SE please we need this for balance reasons
One thing I have noticed is they pretty much created a healer job that you really don't want to DPS on. When I don't feel like DPS as a healer I play my AST since their DPS is so abysmal that you can become a hinderince due to mana costs. And I'll play SCH when I just want to get crap done quickly.Pretty much my interpretation of all these comments from Yoshi-P is as follows:
- You don't need to DPS as a healer to succeed if your team is of appropriate ilvl strength
- We have given you the tools to increase your DPS potential if you choose to make use of them
- You shouldn't begrudge other players for how they want to play
Comment #3 is directed to players on both side of the coins.
I will admit though, it a secret blessing that the whole DPS vs Not DPS debate has pretty much disappeared for now with the outcry of AST discussion these past couple of weeks.
AST DoTs are unmatched (Well, combust II anyway) and have no accuracy check. You can spent a lot of time out of cleric and still do pretty decent DPS. WHM can do better DPS but you basically have to full time cleric to do it and losing even a GCD or two to healing, or even misses, will see your numbers plummet.One thing I have noticed is they pretty much created a healer job that you really don't want to DPS on.

Now healers can pull better numbers but AST, you can get by with just 2 GCDs in cleric stance, heal the rest of the time, and still sustain pretty OK damage for a healer.
