I can't help but feel like warden isn't good enough tho its probably just me that isnt good enough.
And these are the skills i use. If anyone has any alternative setups than by all means let me know.

3) minor sorcery for the Group from templar. warden has no such passive ... (no, minor toughnes does not Count. you got that from warhorn)

Wardens can grant minor endurance/intellect via Enchanted Growth. Not saying it's comparable to minor sorcery, but it's better than a sharp stick in the eye.

Seriousely, warden makes a passable off healer but if things go to the wall i still think Templar is vastly superior, it's the same with tanking, given the choice I would always want a dragon knight because it's just better in general. Warden magic dps is useless and the stamina version only kicks ass because it mostly uses weapon and guild skill lines... like every other stam dps...
Could you get away with it? Yes, but don't be surprised if you get more of the blame for a wipe than a Templar would.

you have this on sorc empowered ward already. uptime of this in our raid is usualy about 70 - 80% without any warden.
In terms of group buffs there is nothing a warden can do that is "unique" like the minor sorcery, minor prophecy and so on.
Im not saying warden healer is bad. i have a warden healer myself and its no problem to heal with it. in fact the warden healer is more viable than the tank or DD spec
But templar healer still top notch.

If a Warden Healer wants to use the sta sub assault, they can reliably keep up major breach and fracture which if anyone wants to test, may out perform minor sorcery (only spell damage).
Really though, this argument is all about talking in circles, both play a little bit different but do the same task effectively and efficiently.

Pffft.
As a tank, I NEVER rely on it.
A good tank knows running out of resources is bad. An AWESOME tank knows how to sustain without help.
