It’s all about positioning. In RvR, I typically churn out >5x more healing than I take damage, so glass cannon is not an issue for me. If I die, the WB is typically dead anyways.

I have an AM and a RP. I've personally decided to make my RP the tanky boy healer, and AM will be my squish healer.

RP is fairly obvious. Destro has one more spellcaster in the magus, and generally speaking you can deal with ranged damage much better than mdps. (disrupt from willpower, stagger/silence) So you're worried about melee, and you can slot up some 136 armor talis, and put Ancestral Inheritance on to better survive the melee train. Regenerative Shielding is there as well, so you can reasonably get your armor values approaching 4k.

For AM you don't have those two tactics, so even trying to build armor is a pointless endeavor. Also you don't have, Do Somethin Useful, so toughness is also not viable. Instead I would go willpower/wounds. Even with the better willpower scaling it seems wasteful to spec entirely into willpower talis. I'd go half will, half wounds. I'd say 8k wounds for a healer is a minimum.

Personally I check my heal values with the big 2 second heal. If it's hitting for 1500 non proc, you're probably fine. That means you'll get heal crits in the 2800 - 3k range. That's plenty of healing potential. Even my RP with mostly armor talis heals for 1600 non crit Rune of Restoration. If your boon of Hysh hits for 1500 non crit, you have adequate healing imo. At that point invest in some wounds to survive WE KD and morale damage.

AM survivability, as far as the melee train, comes down to puddle, and walk between worlds. If you're having trouble with survivability I recommend Run Between Worlds tactic. It is underrated imo, and you can play very troll/agressive in your playstyle if that appeals to you. It is particularly strong into baiting mdps in scenarios, you just have to be good at positioning, and willing to take a few deaths.
