You clearly haven't visited the healer forums recently. The fact that people are complaining about little cosmetic things doesn't mean they're the only issues. There are also plenty of threads complaining about balance between the melee damage classes, about the feel of SMN with its billion OGCDs to manage, about how DRK now feels like a clone of WAR, as well as a lot of unhappy AST and SCH mains. It pains me that I feel bad about advocating for fixes that my job needs because other jobs also need that attention.

And while I might not have wanted to delay the expansion for cosmetic issues, I would happily have seen the expansion delayed so that MNK and AST could have started the expansions with the fixes they got in 5.05 (and preferably more, in AST's case. Can't comment on MNK since I haven't ever played it at cap). When the expansion launched there were 3 whole jobs which were bad enough to turn their columns in that reddit poll blue within a sea of red satisfaction at the other jobs.

So yes, I think that the devs could use some more time and resources to work on the core elements of gameplay.
