In the spirit of being semi-open minded, I did go ahead and try it. My first run through however did nothing to change my mind about how awful this is going to feel. First of all, seeing as almost the entire group was new, it was a mess for both me and the other white mage I was co-healing with. Every fight it was a frantic game of trying to keep each other alive so we could not only help raise our entire alliance from the ground two to three times a boss, but also to help raise the other alliance healers when they both went down. It might have at least felt a challenge worth the reward when finally on the last boss a pair of healer gloves dropped. Guess what though, neither I or the other White Mage roll high enough and they end up going to a Red Mage who spent most of the run eating ground.

As someone who A. Levels other classes on actual different characters and therefore is only there to gear the Job I'm actively participating as and B. wouldn't roll on job gear I wasn't playing as in an all greed situation anyway, I was more than a little ticked off. Ticked off enough that if it happens again before the last boss, I'd be very, very tempted to stop paying any attention to the person who did it. You die after stealing healer gear while on a DPS job? I hope you figure out a way to bring yourself back to life. Have a nice day.
