Every problem with the current iteration of healers.

[tikiwiki]

i understand that, i truly understand the fact of wanting to have also a class that can balance those two things.
thats why i gave scholar as an example,there different types of people and different types of play style.
healers who want to do both dps and healing at the same time,those that prefer to have versatility and answer any case in their kit and even have the simple old school healing.
but again a healer is a healer,u can give him dps,give him different buffs to answer to situations but in the end of the day his job is to heal and support the party.
so for u who want to be able to do both its good,it a different contribute to party, but your still a healer and your role in the end is support how u do it up to you.

the devs do seem to agree with your sentiments but keep failing at it is the thing they need to think is it worth trying to chase something weve failed at reaching since the base game or do we work with what we have
