Imagine doing all that and also having a rotation more interesting than 70% of your casts be glare

I fail to see how pressing 123 instead of 111 changes the conversation. But anyway I gave my opinion--what did you think of the savage tier?

[Reinha]

This is not the gotcha that you think it is. For starters, healing is at its most interesting when we're going in there with minimum vit and minimum mind, and both I and my cohealer rate the pacing highly.

The tier is substantially more recoverable with the punish for failures being things like dots, or not killing all 8 people, and with reasonably easy to hit dps checks you can take a few of these deaths and failures and be okay. Further, both my m3s and m4s clears were on the back of my lb3, with the m4s clear being extremely clutch and sending my friend's stream chat over the moon.

My experience was intense, dynamic, and clutch, and my peers told me that they felt that I was playing out of my mind. It was a lot of fun and it rewarded what I see as my strength which is thinking quickly and triaging problems and finding the way through a mech going sideways, which was not a muscle I got to flex much in endwalker because of the high percentage of body check mechanics, but dawntrail has been really leaning into. I also had a blast doing other cute utility things like dashing forward to give our black mage an am target in some spots.

The notion that all of that is invalid because I cast some glares as filler between intense healing spikes and clutch recoveries makes me really roll my eyes.

Although I am happy for you, you enjoying healing despite glarespam doesn't make me enjoy it. Not having to press the same button over and over would make me enjoy healing. People tell me to do different content. Does that content change my rotation to have less glarespam and more GCD healing? I'm asking you since you said you completed the tier. I won't waste my time healing anything if it's not fun for me.

Dawntrail demotes all WoLs to different colors of healer.
Jokes aside, I suppose the Raids are fun then?

There really is no true random damage as all random damage has a window in which it could happen. Once you know those windows it easy to be ready for that damage should it happen eliminating any threat it posed.

The easy solution would be enmity management. Suddenly tanks and healers in all forms of content would have something to do. But we can't have that because "muh numbers".

If you mean this in any way similar to what we had before, then you'll have "solved" the lack of things to do for about the first 10 GCDs only and have cost us each 4 buttons to do so...

And if not, you're going to need an actual description.

Enmity "management" wasn't removed merely over "muh numbers". It was removed because it's a permanent and inflexible table that therefore has little to no optimization available to it beyond not overEnting, much like GCD healing.

the real issue is that SE and CBU3 are the ones that allowed someone to reach 100 without knowing how to play their job.

Considering they remove devs from (healer) job testing for being literally ‘too good at healing’, is it really so surprising they’re catering to the very bottom 1% of players lol.

I mean it’s sort of like a reverse elitism lol

I wonder what passes as "too good" for them... Probably beating Hall of the Novice.

Maybe they noticed Freecure is a scam and started using cure 2 instead. Perhaps, worse, they decided to use they free GCDs to cast Stone...

Edit: In the unlikely case someone on or related to the dev team does read this, I apologise for the tone and implication but I was tired and fed up when I typed it and it does feel that way sometimes.

over 800 pages and SE still won't talk about this.

Edit: OMG my 123th post!
