Why is the healer class basically a one spell dps class?

Honestly idk how this can be possible. I play on controller which has even less space than kb+m(which i’m assuming you’re using) and i’ve never run into a problem of running out of space for skills.

Controller is 5x8 buttons, right? Considering that all healers are roughly at 30 skills or less, it's pretty easy to fit a lot more new skills, since you can fit 40.

In fact, it actually takes more setup to get so many skills working on KB+M because the default binds force you to move your fingers to quite extreme positions if you have more than 15 skills or so.

Depends on how much use you make of mod keys. If you make use of Alt (rebound over Caps Lock in my case), Shift, and Ctrl, very, very little hand-stretching is required. Personally, I never have to have stretch my hand any further than a natural resting position.

That said, I do also use my mouse for 3 job-specific skills, auto-run, a toggle for all my additional menus (gearsets, quick links to most used menu items, etc.), Discord Mute toggle, target nearest enemy, target previous, and Interact/Confirm in addition to standard LMB and RMB functions. So, that also lightens the load noticeably.
