#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[PercibelTheren]

There's a lot of satisfaction in being the party member that helps bolster everyone else and let them do the parts they find fun. I like being in a position where quick thinking can save a wipe. I enjoy supporting the tank and making sure they're comfortable doing big pulls, since everyone likes big pulls. I can be reactive when I need to, proactive from the start, and pitch in with DPS when needed since dead mobs stop dealing damage. Dead players also stop dealing damage, but that's what I'm here for.

Is this where I pull out the "clearly you don't do Savage" argument? Because there have been so many "one person screws up and the party wipes" body checks lately that this just isn't the case anymore. I too love it when I get to save a disaster pull by running triage and dragging my team to the finish line kicking and screaming. Sadly, the encounter design has been moving away from it lately.

I just still find it odd that all of this came from a video by an experienced static team running story dungeon content. .

It didn't and claiming otherwise is being disingenuous. The video was more like the last straw for a lot of people (not me, my last straw was the AST lobotomy they are calling a rework). Healers have been expressing their dissatisfaction for literal years. This is just the first time it's gaining any actual traction outside of the forums.

Furthermore, acting like they were some god gamers running the dungeon and so they could do it without a healer is also silly. They were repeatedly eating mechanics and the tank had to stop mid fight to find Nascent Flash and put it on his bars. And he was clicking all his buttons. Peak gameplay, right there.
