I don't get why people would rather just stand around doing absolutely nothing rather than throwing out some dps. I LIKE that the devs of this game have made it possible for Healers to contribute to DPS as it makes some healing abilities like heal over time and shields more significant. You can let those tick and do their job while you throw out some dps rather then stomping your own hots with direct heals because you have nothing else to do.

Well, ultimately the goal of any encounter is to kill the enemy. I don't think you have to be obsessed with "MAD DEEPS!" to recognize the fact that you can't heal the enemy to death.
