Some people liked healing in this because it was constantly engaging, from the Stance Dancing Cleric's fun until SB to the fact we could still work with DPSing and healing constantly, still do our jobs while helping out the group in other ways. SE has, for this expansion, basically said "That way of playing is wrong." and left a lot of us in doubt as to whether or not healing will be engaging or fun. It could be, and some of my most fun on a Scholar were the moments where I had to keep everyone alive moments from deaths and/or wipes, but there's been nothing to show that this will actually be the case.

Remember, you can like healing, but if the jobs aren't still fun and engaging, you may not like the jobs. Seeing as there isn't even a new healer to get that brand new healer playtime in, it doesn't surprise me that a lot of healers are getting burned out. This is the second expansion in a row we didn't get a healer, the second they said they were going to balance healers, and the second all the information we have so far looks boring at best. I don't blame people for jumping, and while I will still be going through the story on my Scholar (I don't usually use SMN for solo instances), there is a very real chance that the fun I have currently is just...Gone.
