I know that there are a thousand and one threads on this topic already but it bears repeating and grinding into dust. Levelling tanks has shown me just how widespread this problem is and the fact that after all this time cure/physick/benefic still remain in the game is flat out unacceptable. It's not funny anymore.
They are flat out useless at high levels, freecure and enhanced benefic are cruel noob-traps, and all they do is actively encourage new healers to play incorrectly to the detriment of their parties. Playing a non-warrior tank at high levels and watching helplessly as my hp drains while the healer spams a literal wasted gcd instead of healing or doing damage, causing me to run out of cooldowns and die is legitimately rage inducing, and it's entirely SE's fault for keeping it all this time. I should not have to constantly tell people that they're struggling to keep people alive at level 94 because of an ability they should not have.
"But coils."
It should be blindingly obvious that balancing the entire game around outdated, 10-year-old raids that nobody does anymore is a bad idea.
Remove cure.
Remove benefic.
Remove physick.
Please have them all upgrade into their better versions or remove them entirely. Please.
