I don't play on console but I use a wireless controller with my PC to heal just fine. You can set the different filter for party/enemies, etc to define what target you want to cycle through. Disable the upper half part of the filter windows to make it stick. With a little practice, you can do healing on a controller with ease. For FATE, run it in a party so you gain more EXP and you can use the up and down on keypad to select your party member while using the PCs filter for other people. They have no plans for voice chat atm, already brought up.
