    Both of them sacrifice some damage for utility but Dancer sacrifices more damage but buffs the party damage to make up for it.
    RDM gets a ress and healing instead and a smaller dps buff.
    Altho you won't be healing, there's very few situations where throwing a heal might be useful mostly it's just the ress people want.

    I wouldn't rule healing out entirely. WhM is a very relaxed class to play once you get the basics down. You could level it via Squadrons and Trusts to get a feel for it without grouping and in 8 man content at 80 you have a co-healer to back you up. I have anxiety myself, but healing ended up being my main role.

    If it helps any you can practise with friends. I had horrible tank anxiety when I started FFXIV... Now tanking is something I do to relax. If you start with low level duties, tell people you are new to tanking or healing, most players are pretty reasonable. We're both on Primal so you can always poke me. I am a tank main though don't mind healing, if you want someone to play with that will foster an environment more conducive to learning at a pace you are comfortable with.

    If environment won't help with coping with anxiety then I guess that's fair enough, though I think it cuts us off from a breadth of experiences that are like nothing else. Especially since we are probably getting another healer next expansion.

    There is nothing stressful in those roles as long as you keep your standards a little higher than average, and by those i mean:
    Pulling more than single packs and rotate CDs
    Not overhealing and using dps spells from time to time.
    Keeping EQ up to lvl to make things easier.

    The requirements for those roles are set so low in this game that even kids could do it.

    If you're going to overblow MCH, you better not be suggesting dancer.

    It's far more difficult to handle and there's nothing the player can do about it because it's all rng.

    The truth about MCH is that outside the opener, it's a really slow paced class. You're never playing whack a mole, it's the opposite, you're waiting for something to do.

    The fastest it gets is during wildfire where you hit 6 gcds and at least 3 single weave ogcds in 10 seconds. It's not difficult. And that's once every 2 minutes. It is markedly slower paced outside that window.
