What game are you playing where Healers can prevent a wipe with healing? Because at least ime, it isnt FFXIV. Most unavoidable damage takes 1-2 oGCDs to heal the whole party up again. And a lot avoidable damage just kills you if you stand in it.
In fact most wipes i see in EX+ content is the result of people eating instant death mechanics.
And i haven't seen any wipes in normal content outside of week one, where noone knows what's going on yet.

And ESP. During dungeons, there's little to no use for Healers depending on the Tank in question. WAR just never needs healing and half the paladins i run into start spamming clemency if they are below 80% health.
And even DRK and GNB are usualy more than fine with just throwing them 1-3 oGCDs each trash pull.
