    They never said "they don't want healers dpsing" what they said was that the fights were not tuned with healers dps in mind. Huge difference. Also if they don't want healers dpsing then why are they giving them dps moves and moves specifically designed to allow for healing dps combinations?

    The whole "they don't want healers dpsing" has been debunked several times over. Beyond this they have confirmed that accuracy will be added to the healer geaer later in the patch cycles just like they did in ARR.

    They have said that healer's dpsing during light and full party content was unplanned. Cleric Stance and DpS abilities were intended to make doing solo content less painful for healers. In several other MMOs healers could not even level without partying with either a Tank or DpS.

    I have not heard anything about healers getting accuracy added in 3.X. Do you have a link?

    How would a healer solo open world content without any form of DPS? They'd be forced to group to get through quests. That's why they have DPS abilities. They've said this before.

    They've removed accuracy from healer gear, nerfed heals like Lustrate while in Cleric stance and moved way from that design decision. As far as them saying they didn't want them to DPS I believe it was said in a Live letter. Could be wrong though.
