    I'm fairly certain they just forgot Undraw exists. Healers were definitely rushed last minute and untested. It's as simple as that, there's no intended design or real thought process behind any of the healer changes, they were simply done as a side thought with a fraction of the resources by an unqualified member of staff.

    Similar to a number of other things, they didn't put in enough time or effort to get around to even looking at Undraw or thinking about whether they should remove it.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Yes, the changes got delayed. But they said they will be communicating their intentions with the adjustments.

    Just think, if they'd done that years ago we'd have been playing polished versions of each healer for quite a while by now, including AST. Instead, we're waiting months more with our badly designed mess of a role and even when they finally get round to it the changes won't even be that good, because again, they have no qualified staff.

    Small indie company and all that.

    Na thanks, I'm honestly very happy that the destruction of two of the few fun classes left is postponed.

    If they had more than 4 people handling the 20 (+1) jobs that we have now I'm pretty confident things would be better than they are now.

    Having more man hours on hand would allow them to better think things through rather than having to constantly make knee jerk changes only to have to go back and spend half the expansion cycle putting out fires.

    Some change gone happen for AST in 6.2 not as big as they announced but some small change will occur.
    I hope they at least rework the card system because in this current state it's clunky.
    I don't think we will get cards with different effect even though i would love to see that (maybe in 7.0 ? )
    I was really disappointed when they said it will be postponed but maybe for the better, they will talk in the next PLL what they want to do for the rework of the class so we can give feedback before it happen

    Cards definitely seem like a prime candidate. Handing those out to everyone can be tedious and it definitely gets lost in some situations. Then you have people that get absolutely butthurt over not getting a card during a fight. I remember one bard actually broke into verse over it. Maybe there's a move to drawing group effects like in PvP.

    Maybe, but in any case just having enough people to make it come earlier rather than making it better would do it no good.

    All of their problems would be solved with this one thing they could do. They just absolutely baby temper tantrum on the floor level 5 meltdown refuse to do it.
