Openly admitting to ignoring the players

[AFuzzyMu11in]

Just remove Broil while you're at it too. Let healers transition completely to part-time team members. No raid-wide or tank buster? Don't bother me, I'm trying to watch Kay's Cooking on youtube.

Summoner is finally getting real summons, but what if we let players be the summons? Just jump in after a big AoE to cast an Indom and then immediately leave. Cast Summon again if you need me, I'll be alt+tabbed.

Now you are just being silly. Why can't you just realize many healers prob majority hate having to balance a healing rotation for “optimal dps” while managing other players life. This breeds toxicity because unlike dps where their rotation is barely disturbed by bad players it is on healers and isn't good for them or the game. If it's all simple and the same parse lords can ignore the classes and go focus on dps as they should

It's true managing a rotation would be hard if it was always interupted when you had to heal. If only they had a way to make some actions not interrupt the rotations... oh wait...

This isn't WoW. You don't have people constantly and randomly getting chunked for 60% of their HP and threatening death if you don't twitch-react to them. Feel free to take it up with the devs, but the running trend for many years now is that damage in Final Fantasy XIV is very, very predictable and on a literal timeline.

Any time healing isn't needed and you're not DPSing, you're not doing anything. If you're not doing anything, you are disrespecting your teammates. Watching health bars like a hawk just means you don't know the fight. Simple as. Get better at playing a healer and you'll realize why it's interminably boring. Just because it's "stressful" when you're worrying about completely imaginary instances of damage that aren't happening doesn't mean it's fine for moderately experienced healers to be mashing one button for the vast majority of a Savage encounter.

What you're proposing is that the healer role should be completely occupied by bad players, and anyone who's remotely good at the game should "graduate" from the baby role. Well, that's already happening. But it completely contradicts your ego about being "the reason everyone is alive." You can't brag about being the thing that holds a party together when you're also advocating that your role be the tutorial role for people who haven't figured out how to use both of their hands at the same time.

Every post they make convince me more that they're either a troll or a curebot and in any way either of those two should be listened

You dont even need to know a fight most of the time, unless you go in savage and stuff (and even there, the healing is not what will kill you most of the time). I don't understand how people can say you have to balance healing and dpsing: an aoe happens, use any healing you want, even a gcd, who cares, one from both heals and everyone is full? then you have 30 seconds of nothing.

What do they do to have a hard time healing? Do they run 3 times the length of an aoe "just to be sure", do they wait 5 seconds after each of those "just in case"? just press your buttons and if something happen you just cancel and press the one you want: stay behind the boss, only move to be just out of the aoe, cast all the time and cancel if something is needed. Even if you only use GCDs and 0 ogcds, by following that, you can probably solo heal and do ok damage up to Extremes.
