will xiv's pvp ever be as robust as wow's?

healers being overpowered (These are supposed be the guys in need of protection, not the ones you avoid like the plague in 1v1 situations), etc.

There are a lot of things keeping me from enjoying XIV's PvP even a fraction as much as WoW's.

As a healer main in pvp, I think you missed the point of healers. It's not quite about how killable they are, it's all about juggling your own survival with the survival of your team mates. Sure, a healer can be quite unkillable (if Dps and tanks don't work together and use all of their toolkit) if they focus all their heals on themself. But this means their team mates will die from no heals, and they'll most likely lose. The feast is a good example of this.

Or let me put it this way. If a healer and a Dps are doing a 1v1 in frontlines or feast, both if them are stupid. Dps cannot take down a healer without help, and is wasting his time. A healer 1v1 a dps would win the fight, but lose the battle, as their team is dying due to their healer 1v1ing and not healing them.
