@ezlin Yeah, I ran Mistwake yesterday as an AST, which I've never had issues healing for and I had a PLD tank that was straight-up DYING every time there was a tankbuster. I couldn't even bother with using my cards or DPSing because the tank required *so much babysitting.*
DRK's I expect to be squishy, they always have been. It's just been weird for me to have a rougher time than normal healing all the other tanks, but PLD and GNB especially. WAR is still god mode with self-heals. XD
Hey other #FFXIV Healer Mains:
Do you guys feel like tanks, especially GNB, are taking more damage than before 7.4?
I've had several tanks get nuked from orbit by -trash pulls- that I know I've healed them easily through before. Especially on lower-level content.
I'm just trying to see if it's a me thing or if something has actually changed.
I feel like people need this reminder. Don't waste your time and effort on people who won't return it. True friendship or any relationship, really, is about give and take. Stop giving leeway to takers, find people who give you as much as they themselves receive.

Xochitl reflects on friendship struggles in Eorzea, highlighting feelings of betrayal with Yumari and Garret while finding solace with supportive friends like Gohin, Briar and Oxomoco.
All these K-Pop Demon Hunter x FFXIV music videos are great. Kudos to the talent that put them together!
I've played through LW: S1 and S2. I'm working my way through Heart of Thorns on my Level 80. Started feeling like I needed a better mount or better Masteries to really make progress and got kind of discouraged.
So, I switched to my leveling alt that's currently in her 50's. She's still in her Personal Story. I'm basically clearing maps as the Story sends me to new zones I haven't cleared. XD That feels like a smarter way to do it for myself.
I've come to realize that I enjoy the leveling / progression part of MMO gaming, but I don't like the late-stage end-game grindfests for iLevel, gearscore, reputation, whatever-else-have-yous. XD
None of those activities really feed into the part of me that enjoys progressing my character, even though getting up your gearscore /is/ some kind of progression. It feels less tangible to me, whereas getting the next Level or Talent Point or clearing a map feels much more rewarding.
I've been playing #GW2 in my downtime from FFXIV and I've found that I actually enjoy leveling the new character I made more than I enjoy playing my Level 80.
I feel ... very lost on my 80, like I'm painfully behind the times. Maps feel hard to clear because I don't have the right mount or the right Masteries to interact with certain elements.
I can see why people find it hard to get back into after a while.

Xochitl ruminates on the past week of adventures, the needs of the township of Nightcross, and the needs of those among her friends.
Somehow, I missed posting this yesterday.
August 16: Snow
Like pirouetting
Dancers drifting to the earth
Melting at touch down
