I don't wanna be the one to rain on your parade here, but the mystic's versatility is not the fact that they can do some DPS in groups. You are still the healer.

If I invited a mystic to solo heal my group and they said they weren't going to do much healing, I'd boot them and find another cleric or shaman that would. If I was inviting a mystic to be the 2nd healer in a group and they said they were just going to DPS, I'd... probably not be inviting a 2nd healer because you don't need it for 98% of the heroic content. >_<

It was a joke. You missed the second part of what I said. Through AAs I have 4 different rez spells but only 2 single target direct healing spells. So I am not a healer, I am a rez'er. It makes it that much more impressive when I can single heal groups that typically run with 2 healers.
If I am invited to solo heal then I heal. If I am invited as second healer then I do whatever needs doing at the time - heal, DPS, debuff, whatever. The fun part is that even as the only or primary healer in a group I have other things that I can do besides just ward and heal. That is the versatility I was referring to. I have tried out a couple of other healing classes and they just didn't seem as fun as the Mystic. I think it was this type of versatility that was missing from those other healers.
