Proposal
Revert the change to shared cd for bacta shot and bacta toss.
Justification
Effectively removes 1 heal from being useful for Mdoc/MCM builds in heroics or pvp.
Motivation
I think the sperate cooldown for both abilities was better for pvp and heroic groups.
I am wanting to get community input about the change to the Bacta Toss and Bacta shot sharing the same cd.

Well everyone already knows my position on this. This change was totally out of left field and no one has been able to articulate a vision for what the healer role should be. The full healer is nearly a 100% support role. You can't "balance" it the way you would an ordinary dps class, for example. You have to have a clear vision for how many people the healer ought to be able to support. And this vision is woefully lacking.

Aren't full healers supposed to be support role?
 
I think the CD is shorter for both now than before the patch, I can see a method to the Devs thinking, Bacta Shot is still a larger heal but with higher Mind cost. Bacta toss is using significantly less mind then before and can be sustained over longer time. So your not losing healing your gaining options for healing tempo and mind management for longer fights because of the faster speeds of both.
 
No, Bacta Toss was a 2s CD and Bacta Shot was a 4s CD. That's another thing that made this change bizarre. Also, since toss has enhancers and shot doesn't, it's actually toss that heals more damage... plus it has 5m more range.
