    So you want to change it from tank to healer? So if a healer makes a mistake in 91-100 content and dies it's a mandatory wipe? You aren't in every party and your skills aren't representative of what's possible in DF.

    In this game healers deal damage and SE expects healer to glare bot. I didn't made the rule and I'm not responsible with job design of this game. I also tend to play whatever job is in "need".

    If YoshiP won't go out during Live Letter saying they are shifting their job design, content philosophy from what they have now you won't get anything you want. If they say they are fine with current direction then the only thing we could bargain are better buttons that look and feel better to play.

    Are you physically capable of holding an argument that doesn’t just immediately devolve into literally the most intense hyperbole that the situation can possibly call for?

    Not having the tank do the entirety of the healers job for them while also have 600% eHP and doing more damage would not immediately devolve into the healer dying being a mandatory wipe because for the 19274029510682859069268386th time your useless hyperbole is disproven by the fact that we used to have this and the game didn’t come crashing down around us.

    Yes thank you I know how healer design works, I’m saying if the prospect of healing more (regardless of if it’ll be introduced or not) doesn’t excite you then why would you ever play a healer. A healer using broil constantly is playing to how the game is designed, a healer who intentionally wants to barely heal and offload half the responsibility to the tank isn’t a healer. Improvement of the DPS rotation is completely exogenous to this

    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

    They spent entirety of Endwalker making the game compatible with single player FF players to scared of multiplayer games... allegedly. They changed how healing works since few expansions and now it's expected DRK will get more self-healing to bring it inline with other tanks rather than SE going through jobs, existing and future content and ripping self-heal from tanks. The game had a lot of things but now they are gone and we have no info that it's going to change by 360 in 2 years at 8.0.

    If you want to influence their decision don't play a healer and convince others not to (#healerstrike) or unsubscribe. If you are paying and complaining they don't care because they already have your money and they know you are addicted to this game. Blizzard had the same attitude until people actually quit in Shandowlands which tanked their income during that expansion, under-performend Dragonflight preorders and post-launch even with good reception of the expansion. Lack of cash led them to provide what players wanted and trying out more new things to bring new and old players into the game. We got copy-pasta templated expansion for the 3rd time with zero innovation for the next 10 years.
