You seem to contradict yourself, On one hand you recognize that there are already skills that integrate healing and DPS.
On one hand you acknowledge that there are issues with healing design, then you seem to indicate that actually it's fairly well designed, then you go back to- well no there are issues.

The final touch which seems to indicate that you aren't arguing in good faith however is that tired old cliché of "if you want more DPS options, play a DPS job". At that point, anyone who adds that is just trolling, we're gone through this so many times at this point.
Yes, I do recognize that there are issues within the healer role. "Existential crisis" is not the term that describes them, or the state healing is in. Do I really need to spell that out? How much of an overdramatization that is? It is however, indicative of the emotional state of the person who states it that way. And if you think it is really that bad, then I honestly don't know what to tell you. When I log into the game, and group with players. Everything proceeds apace. Again, I can't speak for Savage, but for Barb EX and below, everything is fine. There are some issues than can improve current gameplay, but a lot of that has more to do with refining current skills, not adding new ones.

When I say, "Play a DPS job". You can call it trolling if you wish. It really doesn't matter to me. But it has more to do with the exhaustion of letting players know that moving in the direction of having more DPS skills to tangle around with isn't happening. And even if it was, it's not happening this instant. You're not going to log into the game tomorrow and will need to find a way to add 3-4 new DPS skills to your hotkeys. If healing sucks, and you're not enjoying it, and the state of them is in an "Existential Crisis", what else am I going to tell you? Honestly?
