Will Healers Still be Forced to DPS in 4.0 Due to Lax Content?

[FoxyAreku]

If there isn't enough healing to be done I'll roll a damage dealer instead. My intention wasn't to heal easy content and twiddle my thumbs.

The question was "will there be enough damage to keep a healer busy purely with healing" not "can I get away with not doing damage if the content does not stress healers."

What you ask for just simply does not exist in this genre.

Even playing the highest difficulty raids in WoW with very high heal checks-you're still expected to throw dps when applicable (some classes even reward you for it by giving mana back!). There is no such thing as a class that is made to heal and only heal in any MMO that I have heard of. You will always be deemed lazy for doing so, it's not just this game. Some communities are just more accepting of lazy players than others, but really I'm not sure why people are surprised by this. Why would it ever be acceptable to just stand there not contributing at all for any length of time?

Unless we end up with a boss fight where the goal is to heal an NPC up to 100% while protecting them, there was a fight like that in WoW before, the only time where damage spells were bad lol.
