    To be a pure hot healer, like a druid in WoW, you need ALOOOOT of hots to stack. ALOT.

    As memory serves....you could have all of these ticking on the tank/group at the same time with some work- two rejuvs if talented, efflo, lifebloom, regrowth, wild growth, genesis, cenarion ward if talented, tranquility. And instant/near instant casts for most of those abilities, plus at least one instant single target burst heal. And a tank cd that reduced damage taken and increase hots received. We.....will probably never see that in this game. (druid was my fave healer in WoW too....)

    Though shaman may not be far off..... the defining shaman heal in chain heal isn't around (though I think a constellation heal would have been very cool for ast) but Diurnal ast has riptide in aspect benefic and ast/whm have healing rain in asylum/kinda CU. I kind of equivocate the sch's fairy to sham totems. Synastry is paladin's beacon of light (but doesn't transfer secondary effects....like paladin mastery shields) The whm is very holy-priest with big heals and some hots (asylum=sanctuary, medica2 is poh w/mastery, regen=renew). I wouldn't go so far as to say sch is like disc though since disc had a lot of shields with no healing component attached, really is a bit more akin to paladin to me with smaller constant shields+heals.

    I guess my point was that the healers in this game are more like bits and pieces from different wow healers, like sch kind of being a combo shaman/paladin/disc priest. Some other WoW style things, like disc/monk healing by doing damage or a shaman's chain heal, may make it into the game one day. I don't think it will be in changing ast though, probably a brand new class somewhere down the line. The heal-by-damage may be a good idea for a red mage or a dancer.
