Healers need an overhaul

[Zebraoracle]

Astrologian - The Time Mage/Fortuneteller (AKA, the Buffer)

Trait - Any direct damage or healing the astro causes is repeated X seconds later at a lesser effect
Trait - The astro's HoT tics increase in speed based on the astro's spell speed
Trait - The astro's direct heals place a buff on targets that cause a portion of the damage they take to be taken over a period of time instead
Trait - The astro plays a random card from their deck whenever they cast a targeted spell. AoE spells receive a lesser effect. The astro also has a chance to play the lord or lady card whenever one of the previous cards is played.

Balance - %damage buff/%damage debuff
Arrow - small haste effect/slow effect
Spear - crit and direct hit buff/suffer additional % damage
Ewer - attacks/spells/abilities heal the user/attacks heal target a small amount
Spire - reduces CDs by a small amount/applies a DoT
Bole - % damage mitigation/[honestly couldn’t think of anything right here and I’m tired of spending time on it]
Lord - deals damage around the Astro and causes a DoT
Lady - grants the Astro an MP regen


Benefic - Basic heal that applies an HoT based on the amount healed. Grants a stack of Foretold Fortune to the astro (repeated casts by the trait do not grant stacks). At X stacks, the astro may cast Divination.
Helios - Party-wide heal that applies an HoT based on the amount healed. Grants a stack of Foretold Fortune to the astro (repeated casts by the trait do not grant stacks). At X stacks, the astro may cast Divination.
Essential Dignity - heals the target more based on % missing hp. Grants a stack of Foretold Fortune to the astro (repeated casts by the trait do not grant stacks). At X stacks, the astro may cast Divination.
Collective Unconscious - the astro t-poses, placing a bubble around him, all allies inside the bubble gain a large health regen effect while the astro asserts dominance. Additionally, all allies share any astro buffs active on them (other HoTs, cards, barriers, divination) for the duration
Malefic - basic damage spell that applies a stack of Foretold Demise (repeated casts by the trait do not cause stacks). At X stacks, the astro may cast Gravity on the target
Combust - places a debuff on the target that deals damage after a certain period. applies a stack of Foretold Demise (repeated casts by the trait do not cause stacks). At X stacks, the astro may cast Gravity on the target

Are you thinking of restricting when gravity can be cast? If so, I don't see why you would want to do that. Secondly, I wouldn't want to track dots AND multiple card events AND multiple possibilities upon when divination could come up on GCD heals that typically I would want to avoid- unless basically your point of view is "I want to force more GCD healing" .

Basically when it comes to healing, you've focussed on skills that I touch under specific circumstances but there are skills that aren't mentioned that are very well designed such as earthly star, macrocosmos, NS- and some that you mentione.
