New Player - Sorcerer or Templar for Healer?

Just about to start playing, have a few people to play with, and narrowed it down to a healer role, prefebly with some DPS so I can survive solo when I need to. Will be High Elf for sure, and had planned on a Sorcerer Healer, but has Sorcerer been nerfed too much to be a viable healer? I was doing some reading, and they looked good, but then I realized that most of the good stuff was from before a recent patch where they may have gotten nerfed. Should I switch to a Templar instead of Sorcerer for healer/dps? There are a ton of guides out there, hard to know which are good and current though, so any pointers to a good and current guide for a this would be fantastic if possible please.

    Though many guides will be considered outdated as of 1.6 I agree that Templar is by far the better choice. My wife is playing a Templar Healer/DPS and she's good with the changes of 1.6. Solo's alot of content I can't, etc.

    Templars have the best class-based skillset for healing. Sorcs have literally no active abilities related to healing others.
