Hello!

I recently hit 50 (WHM) and was a bit surprised that healers were expected to DPS. Whilst that is not a problem for me, I don't like it. I rolled healer because I want to heal and would prefer more damage that needs to be healed instead of switching to DPS during the times when healing is not really needed.

However, at the moment, it feels like switching to cleric stance seems to be more optional. Like, if I have the time, I should do it. But if I don't find the time for more then the dots than that's fine as well.

But like I said, I'm not a fan of that. So, do we know how that will be handled in HW? How required is DPSing? Assuming I just get into a new dungeon or raid and I'm not sure yet how much damage I can expect, would I wipe the group by playing it save?
