Would tanks be okay if SE swapped the damage between tank and healers?

[Venks]

So I was wondering would tanks be okay if say healers did more damage than tanks, and tanks did around the same damage healers do right now so healers are not sidelined in the speed running meta?

Sure. But I don't think this changes anything. Tanks would still be necessary in hard content, but healers could still be sidelined by dps for faster clear times.

The way I see it healer players shouldn't worry about being sidelined as it isn't a real problem for 99% of all players. Hop onto party finder right now and you'll see the role most parties are waiting on are healers.

Healers are in high demand.

Healers being boring to play is the real problem that needs addressing IMO
