Adding Stances

[Duskane]

cleric stance removal was for the best
so many times you got a 200hp heal at lvl 60 because they forgot to turn off cleric stance

Despite the massive dumbing down of the healer role as a whole, there are still Cure bots everywhere regardless of the level. Making a class simpler doesn't turn bad players into good players, it just downplays their mistakes and make them believe they are doing the right thing because they can clear all the story content.

Saying that the removal of CS is good because some people misused it is like saying "some tanks don't use their defensive cooldowns so we should remove them all and give them an additional 15% passive mitigation instead"
or "some black mages only use blizzard spells so we should remove the ice/fire stances".

Bad players should step up, instead of forcing classes to step down to their level.

they will appeal to the masses
and cleric stance was a awkward tool, healer damage being based on Mind is a good thing

Doesn't have to work the same way (swap int and mind). It could simply work with percentages of damage and healing outputs.

im not against stances in the slightest i even wish there was even a job that worked around stance dancing
but "old cleric stance" was not good design
and i also think this is not really what healers need to make there Job a bit more engaging
