Nah I’m good. Keep things the way they are. Bad enough trying to get healers to heal with just one dps skill spam. I can’t imagine the disaster it would be if they gave us more dps skills again.

Trimming dps skills down was probably the best thing the devs did for healers. I’ll get hate for this post but idc. I been around since 1.0 so I know everything healers went through up until now. I main healer too. So yeah.
What would he the problem with leaving the GCD heals the same and diversifying the damage kit

The only really problem with healing back then is cleric stance actually impacted almost all healing

If you left the OP GCD kit alone then bad healers can be bad DPS dealers while still keeping the party alive, glare mages causing party deaths are exceptionally rare compared to sylphies and functional sylphies

Plus there is the added effect of the fact that the changes just weren’t popular with anyone as per the job satisfaction surveys released since 5.0
