#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

Some HOT TIPS


If you (collective you) want to GCD heal: Remove OGCDs from your hotbars.
If you (collective you) want challenging dungeons, may I introduce you to Criterion?
If you (collective you) want to compare a bunch of top gamers crushing the very first leveling dungeon in an expansion while wearing level 100 AF synced to 92, why?

If you (collective you) want a DPS rotation: Put Glare on 1, Glare on 2, and Glare on 3*

* Dare you to tell me this is somehow better than pressing 1 1 1, potential skill animation variety aside.

This is a silly thread. Everybody is saying "If you just make it how I personally like it, it'll be fixed" and these same people probably never played current AST, never tried optimizing, never spammed mentor roulette in progress. Some of you want dps buttons, some of you want to heal more, some of you want others to heal less; it's a cacophony of disparate ideas bound to be steamrolled in 2 days by the PLL and a week later by Early Access to DT.


Come up with better, clearer concerns for patch 7.2. Queue times are not going to be impacted by this "strike".

If you (collective you) want a better haircut, just do it yourself, while your friends the dps see the best salon experience ever, and the tanks see a subpar aesthetician, but the haircut at least isn't terrible. In the end, you end up with a butchered cut, while your other two friends have either a great haircut or...a decent one that some might find flaws in but is still presentable. Do you not see why this might be an issue? I mean you're free to like healers as they are, but the problem is very glaring to say the least. You shouldn't have to go above and beyond to make your experience better, it should already be good to begin with.

Now, you can have a good salon go, and then get highlights to make your hair look absolutely flawless (in the case of criterion), but if your hair is a rat's nest and you get highlights, it doesn't change the fact your hair is still a rat's nest.

I don't think it's necessarily about changing healers. It's just about how a Warrior can survive a double pull on their own. The packs could, collectively, do more damage. And the amount of self-heal potency on Warrior seems excessive.

That said, as you mentioned, AST feels a whole lot more interesting than playing the other healers. My attack/damage buffs include: card buffs, macrocosmos, lord of crowns, divination, astrodyne, lightspeed, earthly star, the standard DoT, spamming my attack button, did I mention card buffs because that comes up a lot and sometimes need redrawing?

Comparatively, the other healers are more just spam 1 attack and manage DoT. A haste buff on WHM and Energy Drain spam on SCH with a rare Chain Strategem. That looks like it'll be a little better in Dawntrail though, but we'll see.

Even the japanese players think this thread is a circus. Thanks trolls, lol.

edit: Man, I wish SE would put better barriers for (forum) account creations. It's really disingenuous, that new accounts pop out of nowhere and smite any valid concerns.

Sorry JP players.

And this is how feedback is generally ignored because we don't have active moderators to remove the nonsensical replies.

If you didn't catch it, they were looking weirdly at it as soon as they heard "Strike".
The trolls just added to it.

Ah yes, thats why they're having a serious discussion about healers in general and come to conclusions and ideas.
Right. At the moment, this thread is being flooded with nonsense just to keep up the entertainment. How else would you bridge the content drought until early access.

Sorry JP players.

Which ones? FFXIV JP forums or JP Chan forums?

The former is as bad as r/ffxiv and should be ignored.

The ethnocentrism and anti-Japanese rhetoric in some of this thread is shocking and disgraceful. Gross.

People are arguing over the gameplay direction of a video game. There's no need to throw in sociocultural stereotypes.

Honestly, there's no reason to not be polite on these fourms. Remember that the person on the other end of the screen has a different background and different experience from what you had.

It behooves you to phrase your arguments and criticism in ways that will resonate with your audience. This is basic rhetoric.

I am part of the strike, but I do not want to be precieved as loud mouths and children crying over spilt milk. We are well reasoned adults who are escalating the situation by encouraging others who are unsatisfied with the role to stop playing it and join us.
