[Poll] Create a Healer

[Joe777]

Anything will upset the tank and healer balance. Honestly, I'm tired of raiding getting in the way of fun, interesting job design.

What I meant is the balance between the Healers in the eyes of the meta. Basically which of the Healers has more to offer utility-wise than the others. If a Healer is capable of providing potent, useful debuffs no other job can then that Healer is going to become a staple to Savage content statics, leaving less room for the other Healers to shine. It's like right now how DRK is constantly being ragged on for its lack of unique utility compared to PLD and WAR.

Naturally, casual players and easy content won't care about it, but that doesn't change the fact that it'd get special treatment and be the most desired job.

I say **** the meta. Raiders need to stop ruining games.

"Meta" can't be ignored to make a good game. But it needs not be. If you need to achieve a 1000, you can do so by 100+900, 500+500, 813+107+80...and countless other combinations. It does require time and effort, but balancing vastly different jobs is most certainly possible. The developers just don't want to do that. Yoshida specifically, openly and literally admitted to simplifying the game because it makes it easier to balance. He didn't even try to make excuses that more variety cannot be balanced. Just that it requires more effort and they don't want that.

Every game has different players. Like 2 sides of the same coin, there will always be the casual and the hardcore. We may not get along, but neither side ruins the actual games.
