New healer or else.

This is the most hilarious thing I've read all day.

Annnnnd Live letter done, no news or not a single word for healer again. Feels so great to be totally ignored. At least, they could give us an explanation, or tell us that they did not forget us and to be patient. Instead of that, no, nothing.

Right? Not a single "We're sorry, we're still working on balance" or anything. Literally just 30 minutes of silly movie promo that has nothing to do with game content and not a single nod to all the disheartened healers.

I'm sorry to tell you this, but it has been confirmed that a new healer isn't going to happen. As a result of balance concerns.

"―― Since Gunbreaker, which is a tank, was announced first, many thought the next job would be a healer. Please let us know why you decided to make Dancer a ranged DPS.

Yoshi-P: The decision to add another tank was made very early. I felt that the odd number of jobs for the roles of MT and OT was badly balanced. By adding a distinctive "Final Fantasy" weapon to the game, we hoped to appeal to those who have yet to try their hands on the game. And when I thought where we were going for the next one, it was decided to add a ranged DPS, because it only had two options for the role.

As for the healers, it is difficult to balance them, so I would like to focus on balancing the existing jobs in 5.0 before adding new ones."

DPS queues were no slower in Stormblood than ARR or Heavensward, though.... You might want to pick a different warrant?

I just lost interest at that moment for the expansion. And looking at the forum, I'm not alone. So, you have 3 months, make a new healing job already.

stop being entitled. you are no one to make demands. besides it takes two years to make a new class they said. we have plenty of melee dps yes but not enough range. who cares if it is still a dps. range players have just as much of a right to get new toys too. dancer not being a healer is bringing the worst out in people (although most healers are the toxic players anyways.)

Translated text using ImTranslator:

At the very least, he could have said something in the keynote yesterday, like "For every healers, sorry, it won't be this expansion. I'm sorry, I said last year that we will balance tank/healer, obviously I didn't do my job and need another 2 years, sorry for that." That would have been clear and better, than just answering on a secondary website.

Get lost, you are no one to tell me that. There is 3 healer jobs, 11 DPS job, we have every right (healer) to be mad.
