Next Job Should be a healer

Is this all the forum is now? Person A makes a thread espousing an idea (or gets hijacked to do so), Person B doesn't like this and the idea of merely disagreeing in the original thread is just simply not enough no no they have to make their own thread disagreeing with Person A's dialogue, inciting Person C to argue against Person B and maybe make their own thread! Soapbox Forums XIV™: 1,000,001 Threads and 20 Topics!

But yeah if we get a healer it should be dancer. It's always been a support class, even up to its appearance in XI where it was support/debuff/heals with the ability to deal decent damage.

"Now"?

But yeah, I get you, it's asinine

Well we gotta fill it with something until we can complain about Eureka, then revert back just in time for Tokyo Fanfest.

Welcome to the official forums were everyone bitches about everything and someone has to always derail positive posts, lol

Which is frankly stupid, because instead they have us DPSing because there's literally nothing else to do. I really wish that instead of doubling down on their bizarre "we don't expect healers to DPS even though everyone else in the community does" mentality they'd just embrace it

Believe me, I'm 100% with you on this. SE is surprisingly stubborn with things. If dancer really does come out as a healer that needs to DPS to heal, I hope they'll also knock off their stupid pure healer stance with WHM.

honestly I don't care what the job is dancer, geomancer, shaman, oracle, whatever

What i would like is a job that does it's shields/regens/etc as separate skills from the heals.
For as long as I've played this game(1.0...) it still irks me every time everyone is at full health and i need to blow a ton of mp on a completely wasted heal because the group needs the shield

Even if i need to be a dancer meleeing for combo points or whatever they'll do in 14 it would be worth it to me

We better not get another dps job for the nxt 2 expansions ... since stormblood added 2 we should get 2 tanks and 2 healers before new dps

[Jandor]

DPS has NINE jobs, and ten if you count Blue Mage. Tanks now have four, and healers currently are known to have three.

I agree next job should be a healer, but does anyone honestly consider blue mage to be a proper DPS job?

I certainly wouldn't count a healing job introduced in the same fashion in the healer pool.

Yoshi-P basically confirmed that the next job will be a Healer, when he was asked why Gunbreaker is a Tank. It was to presence balance. There is the possibility of 2 new jobs, but that seems unlikely.

And not technically.

And not technically.

What do you mean not technically? I didn't say it was confirmed, I said it was all but confirmed. Why would his answer be to preserve balance then?
