Yeah, since Shadowbringers launched I have noticed an overall decline in quality healers. There's still plenty out there, don't get me wrong, but this "ease of access" really took its toll on the role. Tanks? Not so much. If anything they are thriving right now. But I know someone who mained a healer for years and switched to MCH with Shadowbringers. They loved AST, but with the complexity gone, the game has lost another quality healer. Sadly, they are far from alone.
