Worst Fanfest Ever

We don't need a new healer. You people just want one. Anyone who thinks we legitimately need a new healer was probably a shit healer anyway.


What would a 4th healer actually do that the other 3 can't do already?

And DPS is a term that describes 3 different roles. NA seems to be the only section of the community that doesn't seem to understand that.

I hate it when people say this. Sure we don't need a new healer. We certainly don't need a new tank or dps either.

Dps has 9 classes not 3. Your dumb lame pathetic excuses why not having a new healer is good thing. I really hope all healers strike and you have to wait hours in a que...

Do you have eyes??? Pretty sure they said ranged physical DPS and weren't at all talking about the total amount of DPS roles as a whole.

This huge exaggeration some of y'all have with 'waiting hours in the queue' is also really hilarious. You really believe All Healers Could/Would/Will Strike and the queue will be ruined. Like, this isn't you joking, you're really bandwagoning something that'll absolutely never happen. Come on now.

Ok, then on the next question. What will a 4th healer contribute to the overall game balance? What will a 4th healer do that the other 3 don't already do?

You don't know what your talking about. You probably never healed before, or rarely do... You're getting to have 10 DPS and we only have 3 healers, end of story. I don't care what you to make up to make it seem this isn't the case...We don't need another DPS you have 9! I really hope and pray your dps ques are insanely long..

Well my personal contribution would be a healer that doesn't have any direct heals (except for maybe one ogcd direct heal), and only works with regens, shields, and more raid utility than all 3 healers combined. Make it a difficult class to play, but more valuable to everyone due to raid utility.
Personally I think this would work if they made Dancer both DPS and Healer, depending on which stance you choose before you que.

There you go.

EDIT I'm also sure the SE dev team can come up with much better ideas, too. I'm just disappointed we didn't get anything. They can create a new unique healer job.

No direct heals eh... boy, raid wide airs are gonna suck. Yeah no, that would never work. Maybe in party finder, it will be worth it if utility is good enough to justify running it over astro. But otherwise, no. Itll especially be garbage in in PUGs since the lack of direct heals would make it terrible in dungeons and the risk of getting 2 of them in a trial/raid would be a nightmare.



But you are the first person to legitimately try to make a suggestion and I respect that.

You could make a raid-wide shield aoe, plus a raid-wide regen aoe You could prevent damage whilst also slowly building the team's HP back up. I think it could work with enough thought put into it.

I think they’re saving them for much later announcement.

But if the regents could heal the raid as quickly as direct healing, wouldn't that be a bit broken? What you're suggesting would either be absolutely terrible or completely invalidate the other healers if it were in any way viable.

If you want a class with lots of raid utility.... that's honestly what RDPS is supposed to be. But it was so poorly implemented in Stormblood that RDPS (aka the BRD role) is only really viable because of dragoon. I'm honestly astonished at how few people understand this. Just look at their role actions.
