I get why it was made like it is but maibe make it aoe heal around mesmer so it would be worth for mesmer to actually invest into healing power beacose just for self sustain healing power is not worth it

Also I got cool idea what if healing power increases area of aoe heal skills so let’s say 250 healing power increases range of all support skills by 120 making stat more attractive for all support classes

I agree with you, mesmer needs some on-demand AOE healing for healing power to be a more desirable thing. Right now, mesmers have only

  • Restorative Mantras
  • Healing Prism
  • Regen (mostly thanks to Illusionary Inspiration)
  • Well of Eternity
    as AOE healing. The problems are:
  • Mantras are clunky to use for the healing as you need to waste your mantra charges and then cast a nearly 3s mantra to get the heal. Also, barely any HP scaling
  • Healing prism is tiny
  • Regen gives good background heal, but not “on-demand” burst heal
  • Well of eternity is 1 heal every 30s.

Long time ago (see my mesmer rework in signature) I suggested changing restorative illusion to:

  • base self-heal with low HP scaling
  • AOE heal depending on number of illusions with high HP scaling

This way you don’t get too much AOE heal, but you do have some on-demand AOE heal.
