I'm bored when I heal because I need more complex DPS rotations

It definitely also an issue when they keep trying to do too many things at once. The mizzteq interview before endwalker show how they were trying to have it many different ways, https://www.fanbyte.com/games/news/f...sage-endwalker



They want healers to heal but they don't want it to be the only thing they do. They want to make it harder but not too hard not that it is a challenge for causals. They also don't want mp to be a hard focus either. They kinda set their focus to be too board I would say.

Also I will always stand by the fact that the devs may play healers but they do not main healers.

If they don't want mana to be an issue they should do what they did for TP and remove mana and have all abilities/skills/spells accrue stacks.

...Why this, especially the bolded part?

Yes, those not already Medica II spamming could have a near-identical later-game GCD experience after removing MP (and, presumably, removing Lucid Dreaming Cure, Physick, and Benefic while revamping Diagnosis and nerfing GCD AoE heals), since you scarcely used them anyways...

...But, (A) what do you mean by "stacks" here (and are they applied to the ability? the healing recipient?) and (B) why would that be necessary?

I probably shouldn't have said "all" I was worried if I didn't specify or used the word skill instead of ability someone would be facetious about my terminology. I was thinking about how sharp and triplecast function currently where you can hold a certain number of uses and they recharge overtime. This would stop people only spamming heals or only spamming dps skills and also take pressure off of people who struggle with resource management. Like you said people that already don't spam medica2 [or equivalent] would functionally be having the same experience but as mentioned above if they're worried about mp management being another thing for healers to worry about then removing it and just having each [or certain] skills having a number of uses before they go on cooldown eliminates the MP pressure.
