Right, they play like supports, they have support kits, and playing like a 'pure healer' is kinda griefing.

But the role is called 'healer' in OW, not support. Which is my point, the word 'healer' or 'support' is too broad in overlap to get hung up over. Trying to justify why healers in FFXIV cannot have more 'support' stuff with 'because the role is called healer, not support' is really not-sensible imo, because we're in the same boat here as OW: heal allies when they need it, help kill enemies when they don't. Issue is, in OW there's gonna be people in need of healing a lot more often than here in FF, due to it being PVP and this being strict spreadsheetable fight timelines
