I never raid healed on wow, but there is something about doing it in ffxiv that makes it feel almost like a turn based game. You have to map out a few heals ahead what you plan to do, since if you mess up you might not have enough time to do it.Â
It might just be a preference thing, ffxiv has been the only MMO i've liked the combat enough to actually want to raid.
Healing things like the hammerfaust (sp? The big faust after the two little fausts on savage) isn't so much precast, as it's spam cureII and hope that tank is using cooldowns at the right moment and isn't autoattacked for a lot right after being chunked. Raid healing on FFXIV is just medica II and sometimes a medica/cure III depending on how stacked up your buddies are. It doesn't really feel... turn based to me? It just feels like.. WHERE EVERYBODY AT? WHERE YOU STANDING? WHY IS THAT GUY IN NARNIA HUH?
eddited to snip out a lot of convo
..and well, the start of hammerfaust isn't so bad but near the end of that badboy it's real ..clenching.
