I occasionally have to use the mouse when on DPS because the tab cycling is so annoying, esp when I forget I have filters set up, but my keyboard's purpose now is mostly for chat :P

as for healing, I only got to party up until haukke, so I can't say it's not gonna hurt in higher dungeons, but I don't know, switching between 2 hotbars wasn't much of a task with practice. I eventually learned to part-time DPS too with the right set-up, and I'm not using any macros (though it might help improve my skillz)
the game was originally designed on the PC.
