What if DNC is SHOMHOW a DPS?

What if dancer had something similar to astrologian's sects except it changed the skills to between pure dps and heal/lesser dps? And they need to use whips.

Part of me wonders, with them talking of potentially making two 'main tanks' and two 'off tanks' if they would end up making say WHM/DNC regen healers and SCH/AST shield healers. That would mean taking the choice away from AST though, which may make it easier to balance but also remove something people like about the job.

Or maybe they don't get regens, they get minor group heals based off damage, and your standard big heals that have nothing to do with dps?

astrologian's sects

*Triggered*. But anyway the only part of this that bothers me is those times you come across an AST who either don't use a sect at all or uses the wrong one and then you get to deal with that for the entire run. Even though I am an AST main I'm not a big fan of the sect system with them. Of course this isn't a skill problem, it's a bad player problem. Only so many times I want to tolerate Noct ASTs with a SCH.

I'd like a healer that can play smoothly with another of the same job. Two ASTs can be a pain in the neck with card coordination or sects (usually the former).
