Aoe heal is the real issue. Just give aoe healing diminishing returns. Also fp cost increase may help.
One big thing about healers is that they offer an insane advantage of tempo. Basically, healers are always "in range" to be effective. Sit in a corner, heal, etc... Meanwhile the guy with no heals doesn't get a break. If they let up the pressure for even one turn, and use a buff or something, or god forbid they try to make some distance, then suddenly the healer has won cause woop we get that hp back. Range is extremely important in SL2, and being able to affect the overall hp difference of the match regardless of distance from the enemy means that mathematically speaking it's almost like they had a global damaging skill, that also ignores all defenses. 100 damage to my tank? That's 40 damage. 100 healing to my tank? That's still 100 heal. For all these reasons, healing is intrinsically powerful. Imo, it should just be smaller numbers, especially the aoe ones. Healing your team with malmelo for like 300hp is ridiculous. Healing your team for 100? That's still good, man!
