I'm scared that a 4th healer will either come out and be just as bad as the current 3 "spam 1, MAYBE 2, buttons, then some times someone gets an ouchie so you kiss it better then back to spamming" or they make a healer that actually works in that system,and actually has something to do in downtime that doesnt cause carpal tunnel, but at the expense of the other 3 healers. I would love for SE to prove me wrong and do both, make the current 3 healers amazing and fun to play while also giving us a 4th healer who does the same. But this expac has made me lose all faith that SE know what they're doing with healers. If it weren't for the Savage/ultimate scene and my FC, I'd have unsubbed and found another game to give my attention.
That's unfortunate and kinda right. I used to main SCH back in Stormblood and the Job feels a little alien and weak compared to White Mage and I feel lost whenever I play AST, but that might just be because I'm paying too much attention to drawing cards then DPSing or Healing. I now spend my days either Tanking as a DRK or healing as a WHM
