But double checking seems it did try to teach to use aoe then the combo on multiple enemies, i just had other guides in my head so kept using aoe ^^"
And checking the dps exercises i don't see any of them being about taking enmity off the healer. But more to support the group as a whole by focusing down enemies that target the weakest member. both have the same mission but completely different priority in the novice exercise.
It teaches you to grab aggro of your teammates who just happen to be a healer in the tutorial.
For the DPS check the reinforcement tutorial where extra enemies would spawn and go for the healer while the tank is too busy eating dirt.

Either way it's an outdated and terrible tutorial and anyone who uses it as the basis for their arguments should be disregarded in a similar fashion
