Some games and bosses aggro on healing others. I remember one game where I was pulling exactly as much aggro as the healer if I was healing full time and attacking half the time. Which meant I could manage aggro myself, and take over as an off-tank for the main tank when needed. That also sent the rest of the party into panic, because they underestimated how much I could tank, and thought I'd die the moment I got attacked. Until they learned.
never heard of random super effective overwork attacks?
Tanking sucks too.
Maybe she was expecting it to be like FFXIV, where healer gameplay is the very exciting "1,2,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1," attack "rotation" that only occasionally gets disrupted by the highly scripted raid wide attacks that can be recovered from with one or two aoe heals.
So no mana management, no buff management, no prioritisation... Sounds like a game that doesn't actually need a healer, just has the classes because you have to have that class.
Mana management ultimately comes down to pushing one button once a minute, and you'd only really need to do that if everyone is committing suicide regularly.
She said it doesn't matter right now because the rumor brings her (lower level employee) unhappiness due to too much work coming her way. She cares more about her work more than the rumor. I think if the rumor doesn't affect her work, she'll probably never care what is happening around her.
I think it's more about the pleasure of being alone and doing things by yourself. She probably meant that she doesn't care about drowning in wealth, she's cool with having only a bit to spend on what she needs.
I know what she means, but her words are somewhat poorly chosen, so I make fun of that.
My exact thought! Damn the Lyra girl is smooth.
That's bizarre... Makes me wonder why they would design the game like that.
Partially because they have no class designer for healers specifically, unlike the other two roles. They had one, that also happened to play the role when testing, but they removed them from those positions for getting "too good" at healing during testing. Feel free to take a moment to let that sink in if you need to.
I find this interesting because I wonder how it impacts all of these "kicked from the party" stories, where 95% of the time it's healer or support who gets kicked. And I wonder if this is problem specifically with Japan (and e.g. not S Korea). And I wonder which comes first: cultural reluctance to heal, or MMOs that make healing weak.
