In most average DF parties, however, you can open up DPS windows for yourself fairly easily even if the tank is bad or below average. Sebazy's video is a good example. WHM also has Asylum and Largesse+Regen to keep the tank steady after the first stuns from Holy wear out, not to mention Benediction and Tetra.

AST doesn't have absolute mitigation like WHM's holy, but popping Largesse+Asp.Ben + Collective on the tank gives you a 335 potency per tick on the tank. Extend these two with Time Dilation and Opposition and you can DPS for an absurdly long time, specially considering the safety net of Earthly Star and Essential Dignity.

SCH has Fey-Illum+Roused Whispering Dawn, Excog, at least one Lustrate to weave in in-between Miasma IIs, and also Fey Union for some pulls, which coupled with a buffed WD will heal the tank for no less than 9k HP per tick at level 70.

Every healing job is packed to the brim with very strong passive healing tools. There's literally no excuse for healers to refuse to DPS, and this silly justification that tank and DPS HP bars are going up and down all the time is just ridiculous and false. Please stop this fear mongering other healers and start spreading facts instead!
