It's not like 1/3 of our +heal goes to +damage or anything obviously OP like that. Oh, wait. Why would we get a nerf?

Priests, druids, and shammies all have very cool toys, but so do we. There are plenty of times in heroics when I'd rather have a priest or other multi-target healer around rather than just me with my biggO single-target heals and a bunch of desperate flashes on the rest of the party, but it all balances out. I like being able to taunt 3 targets off of a priest who's done a shackle pull and just soak up some hits while the tanks get things sorted out. If we had group heals, shackles, etc, what would be the point of having priests? I like the pros and cons of each type of healer for any given situation. It makes the game more interesting. I really don't get all of the pally complaints, though my experience is limited to holy and prot trees. I think we have a pretty nice set of abilities and tons of flexibility requiring just a gear change, and I find myself cringing in anticipation of a nerf bat.
