#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[gllt]

Stat differences affect how much I heal, which comes between 111121111 gameplay, but do not alter 111121111 gameplay.

Half solution and honestly people are used to getting gear to crush content when going through MSQ and it's very RPG progression and should probably just be allowed in at least MSQ dungeons. I think it's good that the average player can get an edge with gear and we constantly reinforce that they shouldn't have, seemingly, any barriers to completing MSQ content.

There are other variables you can touch to change how much I heal and what my core damage rotation looks like. I would like to look at those.

But looking at ilvl and gear for other content that healers might want to do isn't a bad idea because people who want to heal more should also be accommodated. I just don't want to fall asleep in ARR dungeons.

Also level sync needs to be overhauled finally and the game should be balanced around it.

Is your argument really just "they should fundamentally change the game for everyone else so it suits me and I can play DPS on what is supposed to be a defense-oriented role"? You're not being "excluded". You have personal preferences that are different than what the developers envision. There are two other roles and a slew of other games that feature dynamic, offensive gameplay. This is one game that has one role for people who want to focus on support and defense/healing first (on a healer no less). Are you fine with "excluding" those people instead? Heck, you're playing a game developed in Japan, where the gaming culture itself leans heavily toward healers being healers first, and doing offense as an after-thought. So let's change an entire culture just to fit what you want.

And second, if you feel you can't enjoy the game because of how healers have been designed for several years now, then why are you even subscribed right now? Your argument would make more sense if they had just radically altered how healers work for DT. They haven't. Heck, earlier in your post you even mention that this is the 3rd expansion in a row with a different philosophy toward healers than what you want. If this is somehow stopping you from playing, then why are you even subbed at the moment to begin with? (Meant as a legitimate question, not implying you should unsub.)

When will White Mage get more hammers?

We lost access to nature's hammer in ShB, a big rock.

Know what I miss? Leeches and Exalted Detriment. Each had their own particles and animation, only to be replaced by esuna which takes up the same slot and does nothing different…I really can’t understand why they did this, even more because the tanks 30% oGCDs all stayed with them. I still feel jaded about it even tho it’s gotten worse since, this homogenization of the healer (and other classes of course) role. RIP leeches I miss you every esuna I did.

Dude, WTF are you doing?

How many times are you going to argue before you just give up?

They don't understand how to read logs, they probably haven't beaten MSQ, they've done literally a fraction of the content you have, and have literally zero interest in acknowledging your opinion or stance on anything that ever disagrees with them in good faith. In their eyes, you are below them. A nuisance. A minority. They're just coming here to make you, specifically, engage with their nonsense and then discount it because you don't matter to them. They're an enemy to people like us, who want the game to live up to it's gameplay potential. You cannot change the mind of a cultist.

Why are you wasting your time?

Stop debasing yourself, have more respect for yourself, at least more respect than this zealot will ever give you.

If you're going to respond, at least snip their post so I don't have to have this drivel appear on my computer monitor for even a single frame. Waste of the processing power to display the text.

It’s true that a decent number of people don’t read anything what we posted already in this thread but we are playing dps (at least I play dps) so I have a decent wait time anyway and can do a lot of different things. Also lucky for me I have 2 friends that give me fast daily’s because they aren’t bored of healers yet (god bless them)

I'm just playing other video games.

Playing healers in other MMOs then touching it again in XIV is always insane. Its so weird to have such a large healing kit yet a single oGCD can normally heal someone close to full hp.
I seriously don't understand the current healing potencies for the amount of healing tools there are.

I crossed the line and became a WAR, so much fun and feels insane.

At one point, it gets boring to play with "invulnerabilty cheat mode : on".
But yeah, it's definitly fun at first !

Have fun mate

I quiet quit healing years ago. I still keep WHM (at least) at max level to play with friends should they require something, but I never use roulettes to get there and I don't play in group content with it anymore. It's always one of two situations - some terribly undergeared and overconfident moron pulling wall to wall and expecting me to compensate for his inability to manage cooldowns, or a warrior and I twiddle my thumbs while pressing the 'spin' button.

Not at all engaging. Don't blame folks for being sick of this shit.
