Disrespectful and Dismissive.

The amount of attention to detail in parts of ShB has been phenomenal. The outer world changes as in the MSQ, we change it, and the music changes as well. Clearly, very clearly, a lot of time and energy went into those aspects.

DNC has many procs but most importantly, using them is fluid, fast, and effortless. I can easily use procs as I get them without clipping.

BRD's procs are the same--I rather like that we have more ways to proc Refulgent Arrow, and again, using procs (including the ones from songs) is no problem at all. All the moving parts move in a way that's fluid and feels good.

DPS classes have reported problems and have gotten the response that those complaints are heard and will be addressed.

But healing classes?

Cards are hard to balance, let's turn it into a coin flip with 10 button presses. And let's code Play with lag so it can barely be single woven. It may or may not realize you're in combat and give the seal. No changes at this time.

Having 2 pets is too hard to balance, let's make one a glamour, because hey, people have been asking for a glamour, they'll love it. Oh, and SMN gets an instant (off global? Never paid attention), free summon, because Quality of Life. SCH still has a hard cast. Both have to weave pet cooldowns as their own, which has fundamentally changed the opportunity cost of all our abilities.

From the outside, it looks like absolutely no effort or care went into healer design. It looks like someone said "what's the cheapest, lowest-effort solution for healers? Let's do that thing so we can get back to making sure SAM has an engaging experience."

I see all the quality practically everywhere in this game, and then over in the corner, there's the healers.

Random Dev: "Sir, NIN's DPS is a little lower than it should be."

Yoshi-P: "Red Alert! Immediately form a committee to address this problem by patch 5.1!"

Random Dev: "Sir, WAR's Fell Cleave is awesome, but it could be even awesomer."

Yoshi-P: "Yellow Alert! Tell the committee to make WAR better once they're done with NIN!"

Random Dev: "Sir, healer numbers are way down, queues are locked on Adventurer In Need: Healer, and AST mains have fled to the wastelands to fight over scraps of food in the post-apocalyptic hellscape they now inhabit."

Yoshi-P: "Meh, have Bob from Accounting tweak the potency numbers a little. I've got a BLM to gear up."

That's how it feels with healer at the moment. They tell dps not to worry that Ninja is coming soon, and they are working very hard on it.

They tell tanks to not worry Warrior is getting touched up after ninja so not to worry.

For healer they just shrug and tell us it's fine, and no adjustments are coming......but they appreciate our feeback.

They don’t even say that they appreciate our feedback. They say they made the AST change because of feedback, but they don’t actually say they appreciate more feedback on AST in particular or healers I’m general. Unlike bard, who was also told they wouldn’t be getting immediate adjustment but who were asked for feedback.
