#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

[CStrife912]

Saw some websites comment on this and the comments section in them think this is pointless. But then I saw someone mention that they did a sort of similar strike for healers back in shadowbringers but nothing came of it. The thing is if the complaints have been going for years you would imagine they wojld have noticed… so it makes me wonder if they’re truly happy with the direction or this strike is just a very loud minority.

You must be one of those "ffxiv 1.0 was great, no need to complain" people.

I was a 1.0 player also... soo yeah I know what it was like...

1.0 holds a special place for me for personal reasons as it was the only company I had while I was in and out of hospital, but yeah i get you.

Nothing is pointless if it means something to even a small group of people.

I have little doubt that this is a vocal minority, and that most players are either content or indifferent with how healers are setup in the game, but I fully support them issuing their complaints and taking peaceful action.

I've seen those same comments, but they also have people telling them off. You also don't need a subscription to FFXIV to post "lol strike" comments on YT and Reddit so who knows if they're legitimate or just being trolls.

Also, most of us know the developers don't read the forums, so complaints since Shadowbringers being ignored isn't much of a surprise. The only way for NA feedback to be seen or heard is if it comes from content creators' videos/streams which Yoshi-P has said he watches, or game journalist articles. Remember, Yoshi-P wasn't even aware NA had ping issues (ie: MCH and double weaving), and thought only JP had issues with the playerbase gathering on one Data Center for raiding. They sure as heck don't read the role subforums either.

I've shared my thoughts a few times, regarding the "SE has ignored out feedback for years" statements.
I can hardly see that they could've missed feedback for so long.
And if that's the case they probably considered said feedbacks to be unneeded for the direction they want to go.
So worst case scenario, when/if SE adresses this strike, they might just say that it's not how they want things to be.
And if that's the case, maybe it's time for some to reconsider if FFXIV still is an MMO they wants to commit to if they aren't having fun and things aren't going to change.

We'd focus a lot more on our healing even in current design if we couldn't vomit out free healing continously between both tanks and healers themselves. As it stands it's pretty difficult to actually tax our free healing when there's so much of it.

Whether it's more energy drain type actions or a refocus on GCD heals we desperately need decision points instead of just doing both. Sprouts can just focus on healing while high end content and more experienced players can squeeze more damage out while carefully making sure people don't die. This is already how low level content works, merely transferring it upwards.
