I for one am glad that we got both of these abilities. CMs are supposed to have a profession to counter them and Doctor is exactly that. And if you still feel that you won't be able to do jack in PvP please try to find other ways to get around that, be resourceful and find a way, we can't have everything in this game and we have to make do with what we got, and CMs have a lot they can still do.
Sorry no pal, Docs got everything. Doctors are the most efficient combat healers in the game. Cms are left to pick up the scraps with the ability to heal a grand total of 5 out of 13 types of combat damage.

To be honest, CMs aren't supposed to be the ultimate healers in the game. Otherwise you would be called Combat Doctors. CMs are given the ability to do ranged things, such as healing and applying poisons/diseases, you are like an advanced Master Medic that can also dish out damage. You are trying to compare a CM to a Doctor when there shouldn't be a comparison as each class has it's own pros/cons. Sure Doctors get all the neat things like buffs/rez/cure states/poisons/disease/fire, but no offensive power in nature as it should be. CMs can target every single stat in the game, heal someone about to die 64m away, use "almost" every type of wound packs available, and heal the mind (even if it causes mind wounds its better than having someone die).

Otherwise you would be called Combat Doctors. Doctors have nothing Combat related in our skilltrees yet like Gnuut has pointed out we are the best combat healers.

The power and skills given to Docs while not offensive in nature have a direct effect on the outcome of PVP. compare that to the power of poisons and disease with these changes and I as a Doctor have to agree it is overwhelmingly unbalanced in the favor of Doctors now.
CMs can target every single stat in the game, Doctors can buff practically every stat and heal almost every stat and 12 out of 13 types of combat damage according to his posts.
heal someone about to die 64m away, The Ranged and AE heals for CMs have a much lower range than their poisons and diseases.
use "almost" every type of wound packs available,While they can use most wound packs they have nowhere near the bonus we do for wound treatment. In that respect they are just like a Master Medic. That argument is totally useless since it is a requirement for both professions.
and heal the mind (even if it causes mind wounds its better than having someone die).As many CMs have pointed out the healmind ability has limited use since it is so debilitating.
Thank you
