But healers no longer being able to downrank spells will show up very obviously when it comes to balancing content, and that won't be a problem. Sure, you'll think, "if I could downrank I would have had mana through this fight." But the reality is that if you could downrank, then the fight could have been made correspondingly tougher.
This is not why priests downrank. A top geared priest's highest rank Gheal simply heals for too much. If you were to heal efficiently on your highest rank, you would need to let the tank drop a lot of HP, and then you risk spike dmg killing your tank.
