I really enjoyed Warrior Priests and Disciples of Khaine in Warhammer Online. Melee classes that had casted heals but also some attacks that did a percentage of damage dealt as healing to a friendly target. You could have both a enemy target and a friendly target in that game so you constantly had to switch around both the target you wanted to damage and the one you wanted to heal.

I've been looking for a healer that plays like a Warrior Priest ever since...
@Yukmarc ; I have not played the exp (caveat subject to change) but it used to be that shout specd warriors in gw2 were a very similar play style. One of my fav mmo class/specs ever

Yeh someone advised it, Return of Reckoning
Ah they've got the Return of Reckoning servers up now for WAR, I'll have to check that out :]

WAR had some great class mechanics all around. From tanking that was actually meaningful in PVP, to mage types running the risk of nuking themselves, to healing mechanics that you mentioned. I still miss that game irregardless of it's flaws.
Aion's cleric was the most battle tested healer ive played. used to beat the crap out of people 1v1 or groups... healers are fun in final fantasy XIV. Ive also started a healer in tree of savior which i find fun to play. in TOS i actually have to teach the people how my healer class works since its kinds different then most trinity games

Yeah, that game had several of my all-time favourite classes. There were a lot of really fun mechanics in that game.
Healing in ESO was pretty fun from what I remember but the most fun was playing healer in the latest WoW expansions where you could run dungeons with random guys from LFG tool and you could play ''God'' if you didn't like their attitude , deciding who lives who dies :pleased:
Purely PvE - Vanilla EQ1/Project 99 Enchanter is unmatched IMO
Sort of agreeing with that eq enchanter, except I would extend it to including PoP expansion, and in the same breath name eq bard as a close second. I also like(d?) the Sorcerer in Neverwinter and the cleric to some extent, although fast paced combat with mouse targeting is different there is good depth to it in Neverwinter and player skill matters. WoW shaman healer was pretty fun (but ONLY with that clickheal mod.. I forgot its name).
Possible some others I can't remember right now, but those are the ones that stand out.
Upcoming mmorpg Revelation Online has 2 healers, one works with "light and dark" magic, other is a summoner style class that summons animals to assist,
Edit: This doesnt really showcase the classes too much but i cba to google, ik that the games received a graphical update since these vids were made tho...
For me it's very easily the Bear Shaman from Age of Conan.
It's hard to put into words how awesome this class feels. You heal by damaging, and you heal more by damaging more. If you are specced right, then you build up stacks of wrath as you are DPS'ing and it makes your heals much more powerful.
Not only that, but you have a dozen buffs and debuffs. You can give your entire group 40% extra melee damage, AoE buffs for the group, AoE debuffs for the enemy, Fantastic elemental damage resistances for your group... and the whole time, you're smashing things with a giant two handed hammer and literally ripping NPC's heads off and throwing them over your shoulder.
It also requires a lot of thought to master as there's a ton of stuff to micro-manage. If you want to look simply amazing on both the damage and healing parses, then master this class. You'll leave raids wondering how you did it.

I rather enjoyed playing as a Debuffer though but that is still a very narrow world view
Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.
