I remember that being really fun and the payoff of having heals I placed early go off at just the right time felt good. I wanted to capture that feeling again. But at the same time I’m much more conscious of my DPS nowadays. In the end I decided to give it a try on White Mage and I’m glad I did. I had a ton of fun doing the fight on White Mage! I still need to optimize more and get better at weaving heals and using certain parts of my toolkit, but I’m enjoying myself and my damage was actually not too bad!"

To be honest, I never wanted to do harder content, but all my friends wanted to try it and I didn’t want to be left out so I just said fuck we ball.
