Healers need an overhaul

[Eisi]

No, what you said is right if we're talking on "paper". What I'm talking is right when taken into the realistic context. Currently you have enough oGCD that most of the time you don't need GCD heal and thus incure a DPS loss.

I can't even say you're wrong, because I don't understand what you mean. Do you view spells that are rather meaningless in a realistic context as nonproblematic and inoffensive as opposed to Energy Drain which more frequently confronts you with the same choice?

They are not. They clutter the spellbook with so much boring and highly situational bs that gets introduced at lower levels as your basic healing toolset to get basically completely dumpstered at a later point because of them being DPS-negative, not only unneccessarily confusing players but taking up a significant chunk of buttons that would be needed for actually useful, interesting and fun abilities. Viable healing GCD options no less!

Also I have a feeling you're missing the point, the reason I said it's a milestone is because it's only now we reach this point, the majority of the healers toolkit are still legacy carried over from 10 years of development.

This milestone was reached by Shadowbringers, I assume Pneuma and Macrocosm are hysterically cautious steps in the same direction as the lily heals, we will probably get another spell in the same vein in the next expansion at this rate.

If anything, your post just re-enforce my point about the healers job may go through a complete revamp like SMN did.

Well I hope you're right, they should!
