You don’t need a healer in 4 man content, 8 and 24 man only need 1 healer and even that one healer has far more tools than they need, why is it okay a role is being this neglected
Again the argument is also made that you don't need DPS either, it just takes longer without them. People only attempt and are successful with non-healer runs because it can be much faster as long as everyone is at peak performance, it's hardly consistent enough to do so regularly with random groups of people put together through something like the duty finder. The healer role certainly does need something to improve it's play, and simply adding more DPS options to the role isn't going to change anything about the fact that these things can be done without a healer. In order to change that encounter design itself has to be changed a great deal.
