As far as the healer dicussion goes. Thats great for one style. the Lifetap Healer.

but thats not all there is to it. what about a cleric who builds holy power by doing forces with the foes of their gods, and uses those holy points for very powerful nukes, heals, debuffs, or short term buffs? The cleric's main lines would consist of melee damage, damage shields, and long term buffs (which cost from the same pool a warrior's abilities do), and they MUST do battle to heal effectively.


What about the shaman who must actively commune with the spirits, summoning pets and assigning them people to guard/heal? Or placing powerful wards on a player, allowing that player to activate the heal/ds/what have you effect at any given time?

What about the Priest who stands in the middle of combat shouting powerful holy chants that are AE heals, or powerful dots, which require player interaction, similar to eq1 style bard songs? (some method without the carpel tunnel-inducing twisting)

Theres a million ways to get rid of whack a mole to some extent (distraction)--but its always going to be there.
