#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[Maltothoris]

Starting from Stormblood, the first tier took 16 hours. In Shadowbringers and then endwalker, it took 14 for both of them.

Edit: Then for this one it took 9 hours.

It's a little frustrating on DPS when the healer thinks I can survive a raidwide at 30% HP as a squishy, but it is what it is.

Usually the only time I see some DPS get left near death is when they feel like disappearing off into the horizon to be out of range. Or they keep going out of their way to stack up so many vulns there's basically no difference between 30 and 90 or even 100% and likely have Brink of Death as well.
Granted, I have noticed the general decline in healers so maybe I'll see actual full on neglect eventually.

more players, better more stable connection and overall skill improvement of hardcore savage players. Unless cbu3 do a blizzard and overtune savage on a purpose the world firsts will only get faster.

Oh how I wish they would have the courage to do a REAL shake-up of the savage formula.

We're getting reports of even the PF progging M4S right now. It's not just the "hardcores" finding this easy.

I've not seen the new Savage runs so can't say if the fights are as scripted as "every other fight".
But if they are, and I'm sure they are more or less scripted as FFXIV fights usually are, one simply have to watch a guide and get the positionings right & be able to click buttons (skills) to get a clear.
FFXIV fights are more in line with a memory game than a test of skills.

That's changing how the healer design works.

What you are "supposed to do" in this game, is use only GCD's (for WHM that is Cure 1, Cure 2, Medica, Medica 2, Cure 3) until you actually need the oGCD (eg burst damage, tank busters) because you literately do not have the time to GCD cast, and can't GCD cast while moving. If a player is using only their oGCD's, they are likely not playing efficiently, especially when to access one oGCD you need to use Afflatus Solace (the oGCD version of Cure 2, which has no MP cost and has no cast time) before you can access Afflatus Rapture (the no MP cost OGD version of Medica.)

I'd vastly prefer it like this. OGCDs are way too powerful and should cost MP to make up for the instant cast. And to incentivise healing why not give a DPS buff if someone is above 80% HP or something. Suddenly everyone would want to be healed to full. lol

I wouldnt mind that. but I prefer healing and people at almost full health are far easier to save if they make a mistake than someone at 2%. would also get the glare/broil spammers to actually learn to heal. which is probably why we would never see it. I am sure Yoshi and crew would say it causes... "stress"

Just play ultimates.
>ultimate gets cleared in 8 hours

I was sad to see the lack of changes to healers. Not because I play one, but because it seems so many are unhappy with them.
