From my little understanding, currently healers avoid having to use GCD heals and view it as bad, so a core part of the healer toolkits is being ostracized or something which is confounding.
The thing is too, i called this before this expansion even came based on what i saw in job changes. I knew once i saw almost every single dps getting different forms of heals and extra mitigations, healers would be in an even more dead zone than they were in ShB and it turns out i was right…sadly. No one listened to me though.
