I'm bored. I love the healer principle in FFXIV. The mapping, the "you have to plan ahead and know the strategy" part.
But overall, and despite my little experience on this game (came when Shb was out), 60% of the time I spam a key. Two when I have to refresh my dot. Even sage, which is a dps based job according to the description given, has only one main button for dps.

Give us more mechanics to deal with. Please. Most people will always choose dps anyway.
Sages Job description is nothing more than Quality Bait at its finest. It is still the same generic Healer as the rest are, with the exception of having 1 (!!!) more Dps Button than the other Healers.

Healers are faulty by design and dont fit into their Game enviroment, theyre bloated with a silly amount of raw healing and dps abilities and even if you cut away half the number of the former, all it would take is some small potency adjustments and noone would notice anything amiss.

I for my part, gave up on Healing entirely, once i have them all on lv90, i wont bother using them ever again until they get a full scale rework. And THAT, providing we keep Squeenix typical schedule in mind, will ONLY be possible on a future expansion release that will NOT feature both a new race, as well as a new Job, provided they even care and want to.
