perhaps the general mentality towards them would be more positive if the UI supported DoTs on multiple targets as well as making their impact on damage more noticeable.
I would disagree. There has been a fair amount of positive feedback towards returning SCH's prior DPS skills . However, that's quite different from having all healers having the majority of their DPS skills being a dot-based healer, which I would be against. I would like a bit more individual identity/creativity (such as with PvP), so that each healer not only feels more distinct, but aligns with their individual design, abilities and offers a range between healing jobs.
