The biggest controversy about the class in 4e was its ability to heal by inspiring others. This kind of "cheerleader healing" bothered a lot of people. What I'm wondering is, for those who are hoping that the warlord class will be in 5e, how important is it that they be able to heal? Couldn't the class be just fine as a warrior type that has powerful leadership and tactical abilities, without being able to shout wounds away? After all, when I hear the term "warlord" nothing about healing pops into my mind. To me, the term evokes images of generals, tacticians and warriors.So how big of a deal is it to you that warlords have (or not have) the ability to heal?And please, let's not turn this into another debate about how abstract hit points are or aren't. That topic has already been argued to death, and its dead corpse beaten until tenderized. I'm just wondering how important the healing issue is to those who like to play warlords, and whether or not it's something they'd be willing to do without.</blockquote>
