As far as NCSoft goes, old Aion was pretty cool back in the day. Even on the healing front, both Cleric and Chanter (and later Bard) had some very nice build variety - both offensive and supportive.

From a pure gameplay perspective though, TERA was sick. Nothing comes close, it is that what Bluehole did to that game only to shut it down last year or so.
Cleric and chanter are light years ahead of any healer in this game, aside from the animations, I will grant FFXIV has superior animations for healers. Aside from that- Aion, with only 2 options, beats a game with 4 options.

While bard was technically a third option , and did have an extremely important role in at least one instance that I can recall, I would say that at least 90% of players remained in DPS spec- but it was an extremely well designed class and fun in either spec.
