    If every post in this thread was a Broil (and others) cast

    You’d have nearly enough to cover the amount of Broil (and others) casts done by healers over the course of…one fight. lol

    I mean it really does feel like you’re hitting the button almost 10,000 times in 3 mins lol

    Now two questions remain, the first one, when will they locked this thread? And two, who would want to start the next section of this with different name or version 2.0?

    At this point it’s kinda pointless, discussion has basically long since moved on from the strike and most of the people who aren’t healer mains have left. This has basically become the most recent in a long line of “general healer discussion” megathreads like the “combined list of healer complaints” before it

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess

    It basically has been from the beginning when the strike didn't start on early access but official release, when people wanted to join the strike, except when they were healing for their FC, static or leveling other healing jobs. When the live letter before DT release came and nobody was flooding the chat with the #healerstrike.

    This never was a strike because nobody wanted to commit to it.

    It’s a good thing not to answer your enemies. I scarcely ever do. Perhaps Emily is more like me than I am like myself. Perhaps she would rather not answer her friends, even. She keeps it all in her heart.

    This thread did what it needed to do: which was get media attention because the dev team wanted to ignore these issues for years hoping it would go away. Plenty of people have brought up not only the Strike when it first happened but even after the hype died down still made a few videos afterwards.

    And its not like it hasn't made an impact. A lot of veteran healers have left - either to go back to WoW, to quit the game entirely, or to pick up a class from the other roles that they enjoyed more and said screw the healing role. Those that would queue for DF for randoms have stopped and only do so for friends/static. Those who would help with PF clears, the same.

    People have stopped playing healer and it was noticable enough to get attention. Just not enough for the dev team to make a comment on it. Big whoop, nothing new.

    For my part I haven't even cleared 7.0 (on this character) because I need to level a class I'd like to play to finish the final trial cause I can't do it with trusts. I've played AST maybe twice in PvP since DT dropped and the only reason I'm considering to drop my own personal vow is to heal Chaotic and see if its worth it (it probably isn't).

    At no point was it agreed upon we'd wall queues across the board and flood the live letter with #HEALERSTRIKE (it was strongly DIScouraged actually) to be a disruptive force. This was basically a peaceful protest where people could commit however much they wanted to not unlike a donation.

    I'm tired of being told to wait for post-patches and expansions for fixes and increased healing requirements that are never coming. Healers are not fun in all forms of content like all jobs should be, they're replaced by tanks and dps due to low healing requirements and their dps kit is small for 0 reason, when in the past we had more options and handled things just fine. I refuse to play healer in roulette come DT. I refuse to heal EXs, I refuse to go into Savage, and I am boycotting Ultimate.

    The way people in this thread are still lying to themselves. There was zero media attention that would make any dev go "huh, maybe we should change something".

    Well we will just see what happens now. They are kind of at the same situation they were last expansion with the fitst tier recpetion per say and now are they gonna go the route of abyssos again or save that for the last tier? Or do Anabaseios first and then abyssos for difficultly in the last one?

    And I'm they taken noticed. Remember they were silent on whm lilies in stb for 2 years before shb. I'm sure it's more they don't know where to go.

    You're lying to yourself if you think that no one noticed the strike. It's been covered by many gaming journalists and youtubers. Yeah, it's probably not going to get the attention of the dev team as much as we've hoped, but that doesn't make it a lie to say that people are talking about this.

    We definitely know that the dev team is aware of the strike, because the streamers that Yoshi P says he watches have touched on the topic.

    What's uncertain though, is whether or not the dev team cares about the growing discontent.
