Also the jap base forums are heavily moderated and if you say anything negative they probably remove it, cause heaven forbid somebody has an opinion different the SE.

^This.

Try find places like 2ch and suddenly you'll start seeing some real unfiltered opinions - sometimes even worse than what we see around here lol.

They say "Healers should heal"... But the only time I've actually felt like I was healing and not just being a worse DPS so far in all of what I've played of DT was doing Ar4 on it's launch day and the other healer in the party barely did any healing and spent most of the fight dead so I had to solo heal... They only really started healing at the end with the soft enrage.

It felt refreshing to actually heal for once, but it's a great show of how overloaded healer kits are... And it's not even a matter of being overgeared as I was at ilvl 691, with the raids having 685 min.

fact. they only have ONE job.. to dps.. two if you bother to include "dont stand in bad stuff" but they often fail at #2

Don’t tell them that they have also dmg reduction tools. They have a mental breakdown if you do

Sir,

This is blasphemy of the highest order! How dare you suggest DPS to anything other then DPS and stand in puddles!

(I hope the joke/sarcasm is heard haha)

I noticed that! enjoying playing drg, and its been a while so was reading my tooltips.... I have a whole whack of things that I never see used.

I thought they took those all out cause it was to difficult to manage DPS for most people?

Lol DPS could not even use their ogcd aggro dump.

I think people greatly underestimate what the avg player is willing or capable of doing. Hell, we have posts on here and reddit of people complaining about the normal mlde difficulty and speed at which mechanics come out. Because they added a few gotcha mechanics like the floor.

Where are the healer scabs

Playing only DPS in XIV but healer in other MMOs really shows to me that XIV players really aren't mmo players.
I am so used to DPS in other MMOs helping out through buffs, mitigations and aggro control but in XIV they literally just DPS, Its pretty boring. When im on Monk doing extremes in PF I often ask the healers if they have points they want me to use Mantra at and they're always suprised that I even use Mantra let alone talk to them about it. Also no one talks about who mits first between casters, melees and phys range so they don't overstack each other even in savage. XIV players honestly take the Role names completely at face value, DPS need to DPS, Healers need to Heal and Tanks need to Tank don't do anything else.

you can blame that on the people who have spread alarmist stories about talking and being put in GM jail or other nonsense. people dont realize that "do your %(*#$ job" isnt 'talking'. I talk all the time never had a problem
