Why are some of the prior skills that were removed irrelevant to this discussion? I don't think that it's irrelevant to review those decisions. Are you saying that development teams never make mistakes? If so, I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.
Why are you now diverting the discussion into veterans versus "newbies" and once again your presumption of some "vibe" that no one else gets -in this case around superiority, or "newbies" vs veterans - unless once again- you do post in order to start arguments that won't really achieve anything?

Finally..your statement about outsoourcing..is just ..ludicrous. Yes I"m talking about " it's not unreasonable to.. outsource dps duties to dps and tank duties to tanks.. seems like they were outsourced to healers to begin" Once again, repeating a fallacy over and over does not make it a sound nor a valid argument. Can you provide examples or not? I think not.
I said previous now removed spells are irrelevant since people who started playing as a healer after the fact didn't experience those spells to begin with? because how would people weigh in on content they simply didn't play before and have no way of playing now to have a sound opinion on it? pretty sure I stated multiple times that the current state of healers isn't good, but it's what we have, implying that I do think the team is very much capable of making a mistake. it's implied that the people who played the class back then want it back to how it used to be with more dps involvement, implying they've been around long enough to be called "veterans" of at least healing if nothing else. newbies implying people who only know the current style of play, and often across this thread there have been people believing people who enjoy the latter style of playing as simply incompetent.

it's very unlikely anything in this entire thread will change anything, considering that the developers are clearly happy with the direction they're going. that point is rather moot, considering not a single one of us appears to be changing anything at all.

if you don't understand what I'm saying, you can ask me to explain it again.
