That said the general idea of having heals and dps buttons is completely correct.

Not one of the "healers should only heal" crowd own up to the fact they need to do damage in order to clear their job quests or msq if they didn't deal damage.
I healed all the time in other games and during any raid or dungeon I DPS'd during a burn phase on the boss(es). I did; however, keep my eye on my tank as they were keeping aggro and healed as necessary. Should this not be the same way for all healers in this game too? I know I follow the same method of play so far on my WHM and SCH. Buff w/regen or equivalent, single heal/hot, cleanse as required, aoe for everyone, and DPS. Rinse and repeat. However, I do not engage in DPS when we're dealing with mobs, especially when tanks in this game love to round up 6 to 9 plus targets to tank and smash. That gets a bit trying in low level dungeons when your sycn'd down to 2 healing abilities! LOL
