I have no idea how you can look at that healing graph and see anything but like every tank graph since ShB launch WAR is overpowered in self sustainIt's a bit more naunced than that. Before 6.X PLD had 0 selfhealing in any normal situation, which wasn't nearly compensated by the slightly higher mitigation, and didn't feel very good imo. This was the state of PLD sustain in 5.X https://www.fflogs.com/zone/statisti...unt&metric=hps, and for dungeons https://www.fflogs.com/zone/statisti...ps&class=Tanks Like always it's a balancing act. PLD sustain now to strong, but it did actually warrant some buffs after 5.X.
Removing healing from the Requiescat combo and Holy Sheltron would feel a bit jarring when you level up. At level 84 you finally get some much needed self healing. But a few levels later, that would be significantly reduced against when you switch from Requiescat > Holy Circle/Spirit spam (with selfheals), to the level 90 Requiescat combo (without selfheals). For PLD selfhealing nerfs I'd remove healing from all attacks, and increase the healing from Holy Sheltron a bit.

Yeah it’s definitely the 1.6 that’s horribly underpowered
As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.
I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess
