    I don't see how healer DPS uptime upsets the concept of teamwork at all. If anything, I feel that healers being able to DPS this way reinforces the concept of teamwork. Tank: uses a solid cooldown rotation. All four players: dodge and do mechanics correctly. Healer: gets free reign to DPS as well as keeping up their healing duties. All four players benefit from a faster clear. A tank not using cooldowns throws a definite wrench into healer DPS, as do DPS that stand in all the stupid. I'm well aware that I'm a healer, but the fact of the matter is that Scholar is very true to its Arcanist roots. Played correctly, you can be both a formidable damage dealer and a formidable healer and I'm still failing to see how that's any sort of problem at all.
