    They generally nerfed healing power across the board so we'd have to heal more.
    Funnily enough, on scholar, I'm still healing as much as I ever have.

    Make SCH great again! Seriously though, we just want our class to be fun and engaging again, not OP, is that too much to ask for?

    Despite having 8 or 9 weapon damage more, you're only doing roughly 9% more healing.

    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]

    Then encounters have to be doing less damage or something, because I still find myself spamming broil 90% of the time, unless I have the occasional paper tank.

    No, the answer is SE didn't scale up damage to meet their "healers need to heal more" philosophy. Most people thought that would be the case because if they did increase damage to higher amounts the casual player base couldn't meet the challenge.

    Decent healers are still doing as much DPS GCDs as they were before. The only difference is now it's just 21111111111 as opposed to what we had before.
