Dying as healer

[LibitIncarne]

In tera they solved this by just allowing healers to cast a buff on themselves that would auto-revive them sort of like the Regulators do for the characters in Solution 9. In this way, healers essentially had a second life since they were squishy and vitally important. Made learning new content as a healer feel way less nerve racking too, because it didn't feel like everyone else in your team had infinite opportunities to screw up except you.

Here's an idea.

New Healer role action (Level 64): Reraise.
Cast Time: 8 seconds (Recast 2.5 seconds)
Cooldown: 60 seconds.
Effect: Grants "Reraise" to a target for 120 seconds. If target reaches 0 HP, "Reraise" is consumed, fully heals the target, and is replaced with "Aether Sickness" for 60 seconds.
Aether Sickness effect: Decreases Strength, Dexterity, Mind, and Intelligence by 10%. (Essentially a weaker version of Weakness/Brink of Death).
*Can only be cast while in combat.
*Cannot be cast on a player under the effect of Aether Sickness.
