A summary of healer issues

[Ketojan]

Commenting to put my voice in the pool that healing these days is a shell of itself, like many classes but I feel it more so as a healer because I was a healer main. Not anymore since we got told to go play ultimate.

Ever since they simply took the Esunas from SCH and AST (Leeches and Exalted Detriment) I felt the uniqueness bleeding away until here we are, every healer is essentially the same thing, same boring dps skills, same boring heals, same heal rotations no matter what. I also ask, is rng so bad to have? What was so wrong with the little happiness or annoyance of getting balance or spire cards respectively? What about the feeling of tossing a boosted arrow on the BLM? Id argue this was a flavor that is now lost and I miss that AST the most.

Please look closer into healers and other classes who suffer from this blandness and rethink this path. FFXIV is a wonderful mmo and I have many memories on it, I just want to have fun and feel different from healer to healer, not like if I played one, I played them all.
