(Unless they can afford to spend **several** gcd heal on prognosis and emergency+adlo.

And to promote AST+WHM (assuming they want everycomp to be viable) they'd need to reduce RB which can OS your party as up to 1 per 2mins, so that AST+WHM can use Neutral+Wings on those uber RB.

Another thing could also to heavily increase damage on tanks as to make Regen gcd more competitive (and thus reduce SGE+SCH strength). A good example was P7S, the double autoattack + TB were extremely taxing for double barrier healers.

If anything increasing the overall healing requirement wouldn't hurt, it is way too low at mostly every level. Beside P8S-part2 with the ice/fire mechanic and the insane DoT on 2 players, nothing felt extremely challenging in term of "raw healing requried". The only challenge was to have enough mitigation to not be oblitarated by half the RB.
It'll make sages cranky but just dial down their raw healing to be more on par with sch. SCH/SGE works because sages raw healing can burst as much as whm without having to sacrifice anything to do it.
