    If I were to make a more efficient Tech-based healer atm, I'd prob build it like this:

    (Unnamed Build) - Freeform

    Super Stats
    Level 6: Presence (Primary)
    Level 10: Constitution (Secondary)
    Level 15: Intelligence (Secondary)

    Talents
    Level 1: The Witch (Con: 10, Int: 8, Pre: 10, Rec: 10)
    Level 6: Shrug It Off (Con: 5, Pre: 5)
    Level 9: Healthy Mind (Con: 5, Int: 5)
    Level 12: Diplomatic (Int: 5, Pre: 5)
    Level 15: Quick Recovery (Con: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 18: Lasting Impression (Pre: 5, Rec: 5)
    Level 21: Negotiator (Int: 5, Rec: 5)

    Powers
    Level 1: Sonic Blaster
    Level 1: Experimental Blaster (Rank 2, Rank 3, Death Ray)
    Level 6: Medical Nanites (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 8: Compassion
    Level 11: Sonic Boom Generator (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 14: Conviction (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 17: Molecular Self-Assembly
    Level 20: Arcane Vitality (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 23: Bionic Shielding (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 26: Miniaturization Drive (Rank 2, Rank 3)
    Level 29: Ego Sleep (Plagued by Nightmares)
    Level 32: Energy Shield (Rank 2)
    Level 35: Resurrection Serum
    Level 38: Rebirth
    Adv. Points: 33/36

    Travel Powers
    Level 6:
    Level 35:

    Specializations
    Presence: Repurpose (3/3)
    Presence: Selfless Ally (2/2)
    Presence: Moment of Glory (3/3)
    Presence: Force of Will (2/2)
    Sentinel: Caregiver (3/3)
    Sentinel: Sentinel Aura (3/3)
    Sentinel: Moment of Need (3/3)
    Sentinel: Genesis (1/2)
    Overseer: Administer (3/3)
    Overseer: Ruthless (2/2)
    Overseer: Impact (2/2)
    Overseer: Honor (2/2)
    Overseer: Conservation (1/2)
    Mastery: Presence Mastery (1/1)

    I opted to take Sleep mostly for its ability to apply Fear and Disorient on tap for debuffing enemy dmg, and to help proc MSA. Tech doesn't currently have enough support-related powers, imo, to make it well-rounded as one w/o outsourcing a bit to other frameworks, but the majority of pwoers can still be tech-based. Gears mostly for Pres and Con.

    Adding more attacks isn't going to necc increase ur dps that much, esp if ur filler attack already has decent dps (and PBR does, though I would take R3 cause some of FIE's debuffs boost the target's dmgRes). Ur AoE burst dps may increase a bit, though. If using Orbital Cannon and MSA, you can pair it w/ Particle Smash to put up Disintegrate (though PSmash has limited range).

    If you wanted to not be a healer, and instead play more like a hybrid, you could use a ranged dps toggle instead- less bonus healing then, though. Alternative is to change specs to Guardicator.
