1) How long have you been playing?
- I started a day or two after the official launch, pretty much.
2) Do you use controller or mouse/keyboard?
- Keyboard and mouse.
3) Do you find healing too boring, too hectic, or just right?
- Generally speaking, the act of healing or DPSing is boring using this scale. I'll occasionally have some fun trying to push my limits (Spicy thought, but is just Asylum enough here?), but that feels more like metagaming rather than commenting on the actual gameplay.
4) Based off question 3, which content are you referring to.
- Honestly, all of it. I haven't done Ultimates, but even from a primarily PuG perspective, Extremes and Savages aren't that amazingly fun to heal. Mistakes at those levels tend to need to be fixed with a Raise or four, rather than clever usage of healing resources. I don't want to say I feel frustrated or powerless in that kind of content, but to clear the stuff, everyone needs to do decently well, and that means that you quickly end up going back to countering infrequent AoEs or tankbusters with a Rapture or Benediction, before seeing five people rightfully die again to a mechanic the group hasn't quite experienced yet. Rinse, repeat until you reach the finishing line or enrage.
Dungeons, normal raids, alliance raids etc. are pretty much snoozefests since day one - some more so than others.
Bozja was surprisingly fun, but that's thanks to various Lost actions like Chainspell and Seraph Strike giving you lots of freedom and DPS. And occasionally just having fun with zooming around the map with Lost Swift or giggling as you Full Cure the group.
5) How many healers have you maxed and which is your preferred to play? Which is your least preferred?
All of them. White Mage is/was my go to because I used to enjoy the aesthetics and the big numbers. Won't lie, it's beginning to look a bit too feminine and flowery with Endwalker...
Scholar is my least favourite - as powerful as it is numberswise, it just feels incredibly janky to play, and I say that as a Clip Mage main.![]()
