Dancer is a DPS

[Bonbori]

I was hoping it would be a healer but I'm actually okay with it being ranged physical. It was the only alternative I was willing to accept because we only have 2, and ranged physicals are a de facto fourth role. I feel that their near-mandatory inclusion in 8-man content as the support slot does justify a bit of distinction from all other dps.

But what makes this even better is that 6.0 is definitely going to have a healer now, and it's now possible that it might be Chemist as our first non-mage healer! I'd love that!

I'm honestly suprised by this but to be fair we only have 2 ranged melee and haven't gotten one since heavensward so....

Many months ago, Yoshi said that he wanted the next healer to be Chemist. As we are going to the first world, that means were NOT going to Garlemald. We wont get Chemist until we go there and thus, we get Tank / DPS. In the next expansion I predict that the healer will be Chemist and play like Mercy from Overwatch, some kind of shooting heals at people. That's all I would expect, no more jobs after this. Why? Because by adding new jobs and having to rebalance all of them every expansion is becoming too much of a burden on the team.

Soo, here are my prediction for the expansions:
2017 SB: mDPS / cDPS
2019 ShB: Tank / rmDPS, end of new races
2021 Garlemald?: Heal / END OF NEW JOBS - Yoshi starts to pull back from his current role and becomes the executive producer
2023 More dragons or go west?: game focuses on new content only or goes into maintenance mode

As it always has been. The shocker here is that it's ranged.

As much as I was hoping for a healer, it looks pretty sweet as a ranged DPS. I'll most definitely be taking a shot at that job.

The fact they didn't add a healer makes me even more angry that Gunbreaker is a tank and not a dps. Oh well.

So 4 years of no new job for my main role?

Well there goes most of the interest I had in shadowbringers.

Wrong. It's 6 years!

I had a feeling that dancer would be a dps. I had a hard time envisioning a dancing healer. But the fact that they didn't make a new healer class just screams to me how unimaginative the dev team is. What can't break the regen/shield dichotomy? I'm just salty.

Suddenly I don't feel like healing.
