Lul, I can still basically play WHM with nothing but Regen and Medica II for anything that's not Extreme or Savage (and even then I forget to use a lot of abilities because I simply don't need to). Or an Alliance raid where everyone stands in mechanics.

Healing is such a joke. It's the class I play when I want to turn off my brain and just concentrate on mechanics, because only needing to use less than 6 buttons aside from movement is pretty laughable.

The fact that current Savage tiers have been completed without healers is proof enough that the role is practically superfluous these days. We're more a safety blanket for the greed-god DPS players that mistime the AOE snapshots.
