I don't know what WoW you were playing, but every healer was supposed to DPS as well. Disc was just the best healer WHILE DPSing. Holy had a Chakra for that. Fistweaving was a thing. I know you can't have forgotten Shockadins. Even Druids and Shamans were supposed to DPS. I know for a fact there was some bonus for my heals if I DPSed while healing on a Shaman. And tanks there were also supposed to DPS. That's why they made Vengeance a thing, so even the MT could beat things down. So if you're going to use WoW as an example of why healers should get to be lazy and not DPS, you're doing it wrong.
