I’ve always wanted to try Savage, and I just cleared my first one. Before anything else, I’m not going to complain about the raid’s difficulty it’s my first Savage, so I honestly have no point of comparison.
Same thing for job difficulty. That’s not really the issue here.
After a few pulls, we managed to kill Vamp Fatale, but when I checked FFLogs and Tomestone afterward, I realized I performed really badly. During some phases especially the flails I felt completely overwhelmed. The tanks were taking huge damage, we had to kill the flails quickly, there were raid busters to handle… it felt like everything was happening at once.
That’s when I really understood what Savage difficulty means.
I’ve basically only done Normal content before, and as a healer I never had any issues there. I felt useful, comfortable, like I was contributing properly. In Savage, though, I mostly felt like a burden especially for my co-healer, as you can see on tomestone : https://fr.tomestone.gg/character/40...ivity/77353025
Now I’m not really sure what to do. I’d like to continue doing Savage, but I don’t want to repeat the same catastrophic performance. At the same time, doing Normal doesn’t help me improve for Savage at all. It feels way too easy, and the mechanics are completely different compared to Savage.
Any advice on how to actually improve as a healer for Savage content?
