I like to give my character roles other than DPS. It’s not like I’m not attacking the enemies when in parties, but I’m equally focused on supporting with heals and boons.

I would like to know what you think is your Profession’s strong points when it comes to support.

Let me start with my Engineer:
I believe that the Engineers are the closest thing to a true Healer!
Almost all of it’s healing skills can support allies one way or another (with the Elixir H being the most selfish, giving only a random defensive boon when thrown).
The Med kit drops bandages that can be picked by anyone, and comes with a weak heal for me in the tool belt.
The Healing Turret heals me half of a normal healing skill when deployed, cast regeneration to a gigantic radius, and when overcharged it gives everyone half a heal while removing 1 condition. When picked up, it has only 15 sec cooldown, and I can cast regeneration around me.
The Elixir gun has a small healing skill by it self, and it’s belt skill cast regeneration around me, despite not being considered a healing skill.
Finally my Elite supply drop comes with a healing turret and bandages.

Engineers also have other cool support skills like setting barriers, removing conditions, and giving the occasional boon, but none of them is as strong as our heal.

I’m an engie too and the healing turret overcharge now cures 2 conditions. We also have a trait to make our bombs heal.

As a thief I know one thing good and that’s to “spam”. You know what? I can spam your combo fields too. Enjoy your 2k aoe heal spams when you drop your water field next time.
