So I have been thinking about healer and I thought back to the EQ 2 shaman and how much I liked it. Out of curiosity, what would you think the impact of a ward versus healing focused healer would be? For example, instead of casting cure wounds when someone is beat up, you cast ward that blocks an equivalent amount of damage, lasting up to say 10 minutes with concentration required.
The obvious pro to me is that it helps much more against spike damage that could drop a party member (this is what I like about it). The obvious con is it's less easy to be sure you're expending the resource at the right time.
As an added bonus, some parties might move a little faster from time to time to avoid wasting the ward.
