That would be really neat but I don't see it ever happening.

Yeah let's make it so all we have to do is hit one button and make things super easy. Reason smn got that skill was because one they're a dps class and two their primary damage is dots.
Our primary role is healing. Not DPS. Healers were not created with DPS in mind so getting this skill in all likelihood will never happen.
Actually they had stated that they did not take into mind healers dpsing when they created the jobs and the game content. The expac seems to take this into account but 2.0 did not as yoshi p stated in one of his live letters.
Having to explain this fine distinction over and over again is exhausting.
Yoshida specifically addressed healer DPS in raid scenarios, describing how it was not used for calculating what the dev team deemed to be the minimum clear requirement for a given ilvl.
None of that means that healers were not created with DPS in mind. The selection of DPS skills they receive up to and past level 50 highly suggests otherwise.
Pretty much my interpretation of all these comments from Yoshi-P is as follows:Having to explain this fine distinction over and over again is exhausting.

- You don't need to DPS as a healer to succeed if your team is of appropriate ilvl strength
- We have given you the tools to increase your DPS potential if you choose to make use of them
- You shouldn't begrudge other players for how they want to play
Comment #3 is directed to players on both side of the coins.
I will admit though, it a secret blessing that the whole DPS vs Not DPS debate has pretty much disappeared for now with the outcry of AST discussion these past couple of weeks.
Well...maybe something similar but for heals? I mean, Deployment Tactics is a Healer version of Bane. Maybe a 120s recast oGCD ability that Cures 450 potency/Galvanizes/Removes Ailment/Eye for Eye on a single target. Call it Tetra Guard instead of Tri-Disaster!
It won't happen. It's not an ACN skill, it's a SMN specific skill that should remain SMN only.
Yep. The reason SMN had to wait until the expac for more buffs was to avoid buffing SCH dps (they actually said this).
