    Famitsu's Shadowbringers Media Tour Interview about Job Changes and the Trust System

    Completely ignores healers.

    Very in-depth interview that hits every other topic though.

    Translation:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comme...our_interview/

    Seems the developers absolutely don't want to talk about this issue.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Not surprised, seeing how they ignore it starting from their very job design...

    I find that comment about BLM raises really odd, but that may be because I came from City of Heroes where there were two raises that had effects on enemies around them. Obviously there would be no way we'd get the one with the massive stun baked into it, but one of the other ones, "Power of the Phoenix" is literally a massive AoE that targets off a dead person and raises them. This would continue giving BLM destructive abilities while giving them a raise. On the flip side, I would give this an actual cooldown as opposed to what SMN/RDM raises have, because it does more than just picks people up.

    Now, this probably wouldn't work so well in FFXIV (Dead may not be near enemies and no "Recall Friend" analogue) but there *are* options.
