Like you I am a healer strait to my bones, but I love what Vanguard is doing for healers. For instance, a group without good healing has to take a defensive combat approach which drastically increases the time to kill anything....so now when adding a good healer, groups DPS actually goes *up* just because a good healer is there to let the group do what they do best. Also something that probably not a lot of folks have paid much attention to yet is locational damage. If a mob slashes at a group members arm, that arm specifically needs attention...during or after the battle, at some point that specific injury needs patched up. Talk about adding a whole new dynamic to healing! Healing won't be just a press-and-forget game like it has been in some cases....there will definitely be skill involved and those players who really care about their healing will stand head and shoulders above the rest once again...Folks will get to know who the really good healers are. Personally, I think that rocks.
