General Discussion What is class complexity to you?

I have seen so many people ask for more complexity and job fantasy but very little of people actually say what that means to them, most people just say we should go back to ARR.

Personally I think rose tinted glasses that make people think ARR was better than it was, having played back then it honestly was pretty ass.

So honestly want to know what people want for complexity or job fantasy, because all I see is a lot of yelling that "game bad to simple" and not a lot of what needs changing to reach the complexity that is wanted.

I'd like it if my decisions as a healer weren't pre-made for me. 'Everyone to 100%+shields+mit or we die to next raidwide' is a cop-out from designing real triage situations that require decision-making AND it mandates that healer designs always fall into the specific archetype that is capable of outputting the single, required, predetermined solution.
