How would you solve the boring "damage rotation" of the healers?

[Aravell]

I should clarify that I in no way think that intensity of healing should be applied everywhere, just to the very highest end content. If healers in the very highest end content are bored from how much spare time they have to DPS, that's a problem that transparently goes against the devs' stated design goals.

Healers in less intense content should require less healing. There's plenty of room for a more nuanced discussion about what that would look like and how adequately it would solve the overall problem. But when it comes to the very peak of high end content, my opinion is that Yoshi-P's stated goal is a good one, and I'd like to see it realized.

How would that solve healers being bored in anything below savage though? That's 90% of the content that they would get to be bored in.

It's not just high-end players that say they're bored, you know? There's been quite a few people who made a thread on the healer forums saying they only just picked up healing not long ago and are bored out of their minds and they're making a thread asking if things will eventually get more fun.
