#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

Have you tried healing a pug in EW trial 2 normal and planning? Maybe a few synced ex? It's not about that, it's about the homogenised kits.

ASTs maleficent used to be 1.5sec, whm glare 2.5sec now they are the same..?

That was straight off the too of my head btw. That's how much I heal.

Malefic is still 1.5sec. That never changed.

All other healers got 1.5sec Broil/Glare/Dosis.

It was actually an improvement because it allowed healers to do their jobs with ogcd heals when needed without breaking their DPS stride.

The negative consequence is that it highlights the flaw of the 1-damage button even more than before.

Something that I've mentioned long time ago: I have mixed feeling about the Trashologification of the healers. In hindsight, it makes sense from the standpoint of "because it allows us to make use of our overabundant oGCD that they've been drowning us with since past couple expansions."

However by doing so, they've also eliminated another vestige and opportunity that (may) make each healer gameplay feels 'different', such as:

1. WHM's lilies were more valued back in ShB vs early 6.0 because they were used for healing, weaving, and/or mobility. Come EW 6.0 they became something that we try to avoid because filler at 1.5s just devalues the last two points in addition to the lack of Afflatus Misery potency adjustment (although to be frank, I did not see this as much of an issue personally). They should've focused on improving the interactivity of the gauge & maybe add more lily spells (Hello, Afflatus Purgation) instead of adding bunch of random actions here and there that shares nothing but its similarity in lily-esque VFX yet doesn't interact with the gauge at all lmao.
2. SCH is a debatable case considering many of their powerful actions are oGCDs. However, one could argue Ruin II and Energy Drain both served exactly for that purpose back in ShB. Come 6.0 EW, it should've been a good opportunity to reintroduce multiple options of DoTs. Say give a 21s dps gain DoT with 1.5s cast time (i.e. Miasma III) and a 12s dps neutral/situational dps gain DoT with instant cast (i.e. Bio III or IV). Suddenly, you now have way more weaving spaces without deleting the 2.5s cast time - it could've been an opportunity to introduce a personal job mechanic that uses those DoT ticks as well or add back Deployment Bane to spread those DoTs! But here we are...
3. AST can remain 1.5s cast time. Speaking from personal experience, their 1.5s cast time felt distinct enough to me that everytime I zone in as one back in ShB, I can say "Oh right I play an AST now". It should've been their perk, not to be given willy nilly to everybody else.

Something to consider regarding healers being unnecessary is that we are approaching a new expansion where many people in this very thread and the rest of the game will encounter the time wasting tank effect at some point or another. The fact it's observable and the team has done nothing about this behavior is pretty incredible when you think about it.

Oh its fine chick, I'll just level mine in pvp as I do all the jobs I dislike. Many don't know the switch method anyway in pvp.

WHM was 2.5 it got changed to match the 2 min meta.

Not sure what point you’re getting at. It was in EW that those times were reduced.

Apologies for english. I'm from NA and our playerbase whine about anything they can. I don't get this either to be fair. They will still play their class regardless. Just think that the "strike" will force the devs to bend knee to them.

The audacity to go over to another region's thread specifically to try and trash talk and invalidate players from your own region in a foreign language to the people you are speaking to speaks volumes about your character, or lack-there-of.

Unhealthy obsession much?

Wow that is absolutely incredibly rude toward not just this post, but the JP forum...to interrupt their conversation and not even try to convey your thoughts in their language while bringing rude
and untruthful remarks to debate over there. I am absolutely speechless. I question some people sometimes, this thread has been quite civil...and to call it whining is...childish to say the least.

If you don't like what's being discussed, you don't need to chime in...but please don't go out of your way to interrupt a foreign forum with your own personal complaints. You can ask for their opinion on the matter, but please remember you are playing by their rules and customs.

This went from simple trolling to me genuinely wondering just how mentally unwell these people are.
