It will actually be really interesting to see exactly what abilities on the healer end get put into the new cross role system. Protect, Virus, Swiftcast, etc seem like the obvious strong candidates...

But I wonder if we'll also get things along the lines of Balance/Arrow/Fey Wind?

It would be very interesting if SE pushed each healer back to its core, healing roots and then you choose your utility via the new system. And then, of course, WHM (or any future healer) won't get left out.
