another healer role class

[Zheri]

Unfortunately the game agrees with you. Which is frustrating when I have put all my arcanist stats into Mind because I am going to be a scholar and then have to wait 2 hours in queue as dps when I WANT to heal and my heal spell is just as good as the conjurer one early on. Like Raichvent said, the first three dungeons are perfectly doable as an arcanist healer and it's kind of foolish that you can't play as a healer on your way to unlocking a healer.

I've healed the first 3 as a Thaumaturge cross-classing Cure as well. That doesn't mean that THM is a healer; it means that those dungeons are an introduction to party play and as such are very easy. It's a strange game design that you need to spend so much time as a DPS in order to play a healer, but that does not make Arcanist into a healer, even if you dump all your points into Mind.
