I will agree that SOME of the healing, shielding, and mit should be taken from the other roles and placed back on the healers, but speaking in hyperboles and over-exaggerations kills any sensible conversation.
And that is just a semi true fact. Yes ofc they have “less heal then healers” but the fact is pandemonium 5-8 flopped healing wise for casuals because healer aren’t the sole reason for mitigation and are forced too trust dps and tanks to press some extra buttons (something in a pug scenario that rarely happened) If the dps and tanks have such a massive chunk of the mitigation (something healers should have let’s be real here) and you effectively are in the mercy of these roles for a massive unavoidable aoe bleed then tell me how this doesn’t hamstring healers.
