But somehow this always succeeds in distracting people, make the animation and VFX flashy and suddenly everyone ignores how braindead the new ability actually is.
Warrior is the biggest example of this phenomenon. Most people consider a job that has to work for nothing and gets a majority of it's damage from just being able to press a cooldown every 60 seconds "well designed", it's baffling to me.
I mean there is a lot to be said about how visually impactful your rotation feels and tanks do this infinitely better than healers and they retain alot of their DPS complexity while also getting quite good upgrades (I hate the short CD’s for what they did to tank healer balance but damn do they feel impactful when you use them) that fill gaps in their kits, healers continue to get more of what they don’t need

Tanks certainly aren’t flawless but you just have to look at the job action trailer to see, tanks get a new 1-2-3 upgrade or an AOE version of one of their best abilities and healers get medica 3
