But now that you mention it, I find it hilarious that the FFXIV community at large considers using 1/3 of your skillset as "Endgame-level" exclusive LOL. Like, WHMs or SCHs haven't had almost all of their DPS abilities by the early lv30s or 40s. Like only endgame level Tanks need to use cooldowns because there are no tank busters in Roulette dungeons?
To characterize Tanking cooldowns as not an actual part of the Tanking role in order to justify the idea that DPS is part of the Healer role is just...
It's disingenuous at best.
Here's actually being disingenuous. Healers don't need to DPS. Tanks don't need to use defensive cooldowns. Defensive cooldowns are just so tanks don't die in Solo content. If tanks just keep hate on the mobs that's all that matters because all healers need to do is heal them. Nothing hits tanks (who gear correctly) enough to oneshot them if they're pulling groups of mobs one at a time. So if a healer just heals them, tank won't die. Party won't wipe. All good right? It's not like tanks should actually do their best to put a healer at ease too. Maybe tanks don't even need to bother with good positioning for melee, forcing the melee to move closer to the other mobs in the dungeon that are patrolling etc.
