#FFXIVHEALERSTRIKE

Healers keep dying and letting the party die to raid-wides.

I think healers just need to get good, or we'll take away your dot next.

when you bake responsibility out of a job in the quest for braindead..... you get irresponsible healers just looking for a fast queue.

I'm so glad they reworked the only skill expressive healer into being smooth brained with no flavour or soul just so it can remain unplayed.

Damn, you put it so beautifully, I can literally visualise Yoshi-P's "Surprised Pikachu" face

No need to make excuses, just improve.

Now if only the Creatively Bankrupt Unit 3 have the balls to tell this to their playerbase instead of endlessly dumbing down based on the absolute bottom denominators... a fever dream, that is.

omg I said the thing I'm an elitist now

oohhhh nooo! I'm soooo scarreeed I will lose one of the last dps buttons!
If you intend on threatening us, please try harder. That is one of the blandest threats for "not getting good" I have ever seen. We having nothing to lose at this point.

Here's a thought: Maybe you get a lot of inexperienced healers because a lot of the experienced healers left from how the devs keep stripping its agency? Maybe less and less experienced people play it because when they get good they are rewarded with healing less and spamming 1 button? Taking away the DoT will only make more people leave and thus making the problems much worse. Or maybe barely anything changes because as it is 1 1 1 1 1 spam would still be a thing. When you have a role with no responsibility and nothing to do you get players who queue for the instant queue and to try getting off of doing very few things scot free.

I think healers need an Auto-Cast feature for Glare, Broil, Malefic and Dosis to be added (like, right-click on the spell and the AI will spam it on your target), so that healers only need to weave an oGCD every 30-ish seconds, when predictable and expected damage is incoming. At least, save healers' hands from hurting, when clicking on the same spell over and over for several minutes straight?

I am trying to level a healer but I am running into the issue where I am falling asleep because I spam 1 every fight and usually my tank requires 0 healing.

Frontlines and wondrous tails, friend. I have SMN/SCH at 97 without playing either of those garbage jobs. MNK is next.

Wow I looked at stats on the particular site, AST is only 14% of all healers doing EX1/EX2. 3x more people play WHM.

It's nice to have some stats backing up my observation, then. I have seen barely anyone playing AST since DT launched. It's nearly all WHM all the way down with the occasional SGE sprinkled in. SCH seems mostly non-existent, too.

My Healers will be OnlyFATEs this expansion. Need 100000 Bicolor gems since I never got around to getting the Wivre mount from EW...
tbf, with that mentality i'll probably be leveling the rest of the jobs I have left to 100 exclusively on FATEs as well.

Your post reads like a joke but honestly, I have gotten hand cramps before from spamming Fall Malefic when progging Savage in Endwalker.
