Hello its been a while since we've seen the changes and I've been thinking a lot and I'm pretty puzzled by what we saw with white mage honestly.

I've seen posts sometimes talk about having all heals be damage neutral but frankly this is a BAD THING.

Why might this be a bad thing you may ask? because it gives incentives towards healers just spamming out heals without actually thinking about any risk/reward to when you should heal and when you should damage; which is a big reason why healer is fun in savage as you are planning out your resources and TRYING to not waste damage on healing.

I do not think the devs will also make the healing part engaging on healers, they never have The engaging part should be managing that healing with damage as a reward for good resources rather then healing is a mindless thing you spam for damage gain and nothing matters.

This also effects other jobs, bard got a regen? well thats gonna be pointless what healer damage is that going to save? if both your healers are spamming heals anyway (same with PLD's round table ability we saw) Theirs literally zero point in any job having any sort of healing utility skill now.

I personally think we should actually go back to a Healing vs damage management system, with more engaging damage options on healers (not less with no dot and instant cast) right now healing looks like its in a state thats some how even worse then Dawntrail and heck its going to negatively effect other jobs too by proxy of making Utility heals on tanks/dps borderline useless.

I've always thought the biggest issue with Healer was they had too much healing ogcds (or for white mage lillies built up too fast) Now your essentially giving healers infinite ogcds and making the dps rotation even more boring I feel like most people can agree this isn't the right direction.

Even if Healers should "heal more" do we really believe the content will make healers heal more? whats the difference between healing well now or just spamming heals mindlessly now? This really feels like its bad for both the "we should heal more" and "we should have more damage button" crowds to me.
