Just my sad little feelings on Whm...

[Seraphyna]

This is the only way I can put how I see SE treating WHM. It's horrible and sad. Their iconic healer, through all their games, they are treating like it doesn't deserve to be.

I've watched SE for four years give my WHM a slow, painful death. The job I mained throughout FFXI and FFXIV.

And I don't know if I want to be around for the final nail in the coffin.

And to people, like the one below, you don't get to tell me how to feel or that my feelings are wrong. So save it.

You're being pretty dramatic considering we know pretty much nothing about what the game is going to look like. The numbers. The overall balance. ANYTHING.

SCH and AST could have their healing abilities dramatically or mildly nerfed. WHM could have healing-based utility, which could still make it a pure healer. Massive healing could be very important come Stormblood.

I remember how many times the FFXIV community has thrown shade at new things before we knew what they really were like. Remember how much everyone hated on Ninja? Yeah, now it's pretty much required...

I agree that ur being dramatic and i love ur illustration- I hope the devs do read this and reconsider any pending negative changes to WHM.

Wow the level of crying and drama with some healers is off the charts. I'm embarrassed to be a healer main after seeing all the over-dramatic posts and threads of the past week.

Yeah same here, the healer community is acting really strange, we know nothing about the new spells except vague ideas and people are crying like they were playing their life
When you look at tank forum, you don't see 50 threads about how dark knight is going to be treated as the new paladin since they will now be able to tank magic damage without much trouble. There are some DRKs who feel afraid but the discussion is always toward speculation, not "omg my job is dead nobody wants me"
Same for the DPS, they just have fun thinking about what their abilities will be

And here you take a look at the healer forum : "Don't touch cleric" and "Whm is dead". Wow...

I think this is an adequate amount of drama. It's also entertaining.

I don't know why this is so hard for people to understand but we know what is causing whm not to be taken to content. It's their lack of utility. Why take a pure healer when you can get the same thing in ast and sch plus party damage buffs? So lacking that as I said before they could put bene on a 2 second cooldown and it wouldn't help whm. The reason you don't see this on the tank or dps forums is unlike whm, there is nothing that obviously suggests a class will be completely undesirable for content.

Remember, there are skills in the video what we have absolutely NO IDEA what they do. Additionally, we also don't know what SCH and AST may be losing. I completely understand that people are anxious, even plain nervous. But let's at least wait until we know exactly what's going to be in the game before we performance art the death of White mages.

Didn't know..it was that serious. It's really ruining peoples lives it seems..should we start a hug a white mage campaign? Pet a white mage..if they're Lala. I'm a white mage..I'd take a hug.

The Proshell / Holy / Stone(Granite)skin wasn't their fault, it was the players. So...look to the left of you, look to the right..two of those two people bi%#hed for no good reason, and that was the result.

You, as well as the others, could very well have a good point and see the issues ahead of time, but really we need to let things play out. In reality, if things are that bad they will adjust. Still a lot we don't know that could make these changes not so bad or they could shed some light to the others like myself on how bad they are. Time..it will do something.

I do like the cartoon though, and the time lapse. The garbage pale kid grew..

All those wasted apples..but you do a better job at writing than I do. Lets see...

"Players saw the changes and thought they were faulty,
really it was just some white mages who were just salty."

Here..take some cards. Now believe in them! AST's..this one is your problem now.

No but really, this was one of the better threads..good job, good luck and see you in stormblood!

I'm just making the point that this isn't baseless at all. They said they want to keep whm a pure healer. We know ast isn't losing cards, and nothing indicates they're losing balance or arrow. If anything they're getting even more utility. Likewise with sch nothing indicates they're losing fey wind. For anyone who understands this game's meta to any degree it's pretty obvious whm isn't getting what they need to be balanced. People are trying to portray all this as just baseless whining, but I'd say those people havn't paid attention to what anyone is saying, nor have bothered to understand the issue.
