Therein lies half the problem. We're not all looking for the same things and yet some will jump to conclusions that because a few players asked for something, everyone was asking for that something. That's almost never the case.

So who do the developers listen to? In the case of healers, they listen to those who want healers to be DPS because they've outright admitted that healing isn't a strength of their job design team. So we're getting more DPS tools while healing itself continues to be ignored.

For those of us who want a good healing experience, not DPS, we're better off going to (or back to) WoW because healing design is mainly ignored in this game in favor of DPS design. At least in WoW you feel valued as a healer and not as Green DPS there solely to resurrect players who can't figure out how to do a mechanic.

That doesn't do this game much good. The matchmaking systems are still designed around the Trinity even if the Trinity isn't strictly needed anymore. How are queues going to get filled when there are very few left willing to queue as healers?
Doesn’t this point pretty much agree with the concept they aren’t listening to healer feedback

Let’s take you as a representation of the “I want to heal more” group and have less focus on DPS, you aren’t getting what you want because everything is designed around spending GCD’s on attacks and healing with oGCD’s, let’s take me as a group that wants more complex DPS options (not mutually exclusive btw), I’m not getting what I want because my damage options are still 111111111111

Who is this job design actually benefitting, it’s not even a compromise because both sides hate it rather than “well it’s better than giving everything to the other side”

Then if they ever give vague notions they are following feedback they seem to mention feeling happy with the current position of them……..based on what, who wants the current healer design
