Healing/Healers

I think the game is taking an approach that every class can fend for themselves, so no real dedicated healer style.
Life leach would be fricken sweet.

"11. Are there defined roles for players, like tanking, healing and sustained damage?

While we don't have concrete defined roles for any class, there's enough customization with passive and active skills that a player can focus on one type of play. A Marauder, for example, can load up on hit point buffing skills and taunts, and a Ranger could focus purely on offensive skills. We do not intend to have a dedicated healer role."

BUT! Keyword: dedicated. I personally think there are going to at least be some gems/skills/etc out there that help out with healing. I think an aura like the Prayer Aura from D2 will make it in-game, but that's just random thinking when it comes to healing-related stuff.
True, I can see the Templar with a healing aura for sure.
Well, to be honest I like the idea of depending on each other as a whole for the more difficult encounters, and not depend solely on a certain person to keep you and everyone alive.
Life leech, life per kill, life per hit.
Life steal on hit, life regen, Minor spell vamp (healing from magic) life transfer to ally's to recover there hp at sacrifice of your own hp *huge heals with huge penalty*
An aura for regen or lifesteal would be cool.

Or something for defense. Anything for a more support type role.

But then if they add these everyone will have the gem for them and it doesn't really change anything.
cleric skill tree off the witch would be pretty cool imo
One step at a time
