Remember we've had 0 communication in the form of "we have been listening to your feedback and plan to address this". The AST changes basically just removed MP as a resource and reduced APM a little. And this is the team starting work on 6.0 at this very moment.

It's quite worrying.
At this point what new abilities could they give Healers? Yet another healing spell? We have plenty of those. Are they going to remove certain skills only to give them back but with a fresh coat of paint?

What skills could they add for 6.0 that are not redundant for a 1 damage button 1 dot design.

Truly, they can only build up on damaging skills at this point, it's the only part of healers kit that is open to building up onto.
