Whether that is still true or not, they won't really say.

Which is extremely counter-intuitive. As ilvl goes up, dps goes up as does tank survivability, meaning healers will have less to heal and MORE time to dps.
Admittedly E8s is the exception,rather than the rule, t
But even in full bis, you need healer DPS to clear. You need around 90k rDPS or so to clear Shiva. The 2 best tanks and 4 best DPS in the world, combined, right now would pull 85.9k in Shiva. Granted that 90k may have been from before they removed add phase from the parse, so it could be "lower" now. So, at best, you'd be able to clear Shiva by the skin of your teeth, assuming your tanks and DPS were absolutely flawless. Realistically, you need them to clear it, no way that fight was designed for people to play perfectly so the healers could do nothing, not even ultimate is designed for people to play perfectly.
