Why is Warrior a healer in all but role?

[Kozh]

Another day another stupid healer doing anything but coming up with to have fun without it being at other people's expense.

You mean like how WAR main refuse to have its healing kit nerfed even if it comes at other role's expense?

Ask for something that makes sense like a healer dps kits thats just dot into 1 button spam. Or maybe a form of healing that's unique like a dot that leeches health to all allies near the afflicted enemy.

... do you really think we haven't asked for this already? Just look at the healer strike thread (where people still ridicule healers for asking this even though they're not healers themselves, for some reason).
Considering yoshida's stance and statement, it is very unlikely that healer will get something more that isn't a "here's one more dps button" pity (at best). Healing should be team effort? Yeah we saw how it went with "aggro is team effort".

Currently the only easiet solution that doesn't heavily affect the whole system is to nerfed WAR self sustain. It's more realistic than the what-if scenario. It's not ideal and if I could chose, I would actually choose the ideas you presented here. But alas, the devs seems allergic to making healer role fun.
