How is that relevant to what I said? Being able to main heal the entrance areas to those zones, which are not the hardest zones to begin with, hardly means you were able to main heal for the majority of the content. Moreover, you did it as a SHAMAN. I specifically said Shaman could main heal some areas of the game at the later levels because of how powerful their slow was and their mana regeneration. Druids, however, could not. Unless you are talking about a group being able to kill 1 blue-con monster every 10+ minutes because the Druid has to burn their entire freaking bar of mana just to heal through one monster. Such a thing is hardly means you are being effective and is in no way desirable.

At some point, the holy trinity became prevalent as it was the most effective way of doing things (group wise) but it was in no way mandatory, nor was it the only workable group backbone.
You are 100% wrong, unless you are just talking about random exp groups where you are kill easy monsters. I'm talking about a 6-man group actually being able to take on some of the harder (not "hardest", where it's certainly fine to require specific classes to be able to beat it) content of the game.
