So I'm all for it in theory. However I think a healer having three different DPS spells used in rotation is going to be the big hurdle here, given what the're doing with healers at the moment...
Back in the other Geomancer thread awhile back there was something put up that had a caster concept that you started with full casts that ramped up into instant spells with positionals, ending with channeled finishers. It was a fun take on it!
