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

I know Adventurer in Need doesn't count, but it ... is probably still used as a metric to see if we still have more healers ... Before you get the pitchforks out, I have actually tested it out too. Since I was seeing way too long periods of tank being needed for hours and started to suspect something wrong. It was as you said half the time, Supersnow, with a 5 - 8 ish minute wait as a tank who is supposedly "needed". Switch to healer right after that and I got in instantly with no AIN bonus >.>

So... those mounts that were needed as tank queuing achievements ... It looks like the healer versions are needed too now >.>

I think it has to do with the fact that it's easier to queue as a healer for the rewards than it is a tank. Tanking is more challenging and more intimidating than healing because you're the one who leads the party. How many players will flex into healer and how many are dedicated healer players is a different metric. Meanwhile there are far less players who will flex tank, but far more players who are dedicated tank players.
