I know it is not appropriate to **edit** in the Top 5 thread, so needed to start another one to do it!
In response to the suggestion about giving mind healing to doctors, SoE said:
"It has been decided for now that mind healing is going to stay with Combat Medics. Combat medics have been in need of another unique healing ability, and they feel this fits the bill nicely."
That makes absolutely no sense! Combat medics SHOULD NOT have any advantages over Docs when it comes to what can and can't be healed.
CMs have the ability to heal at range and apply devastating diseases and poisons, which Docs can't do. This makes sense, given their role in SWG. They are critical in guild war and group PvP. A CM just won a big PvP tournement on Bloodfin. Their offensive and ranged healing ablities should be enough to differentiate their profession from Doc without allowing them to heal something that a doc can't heal.
OK, done bitching...

I would take any of the Dev responses there with a grain of salt now., Primarily because of the Combat Revamp. One the Revamp goes thorugh there will not really be any real reason not toa allow mind healing at a more accessible level and my personal guess is that it will just get added back into stims, making mind exactly like health and action. So I personally think this is a non-issue until we see what happens with the Combat Revamp.
