So, yes, adding 2 twilight to the pool to heal Boromir is an expensive cost, albeit for a good cause. But at the end of the day, Defender of Minas Tirith's ability outpaces its cost because of the fact that there is no limit provided to the number of times that he can use it. You still have to pay for each wound you heal, of course. But imagine:

Boromir can lose to an Uruk Hai at site 5, stop, and wake up on your next turn ready to lose all over again. Better yet, if you give him the {{Card|Blade of Gondor}}, he can clean house on Orcs and Uruk Hai, and then reload for the next round. Or, if you're playing in a format that allows it, Boromir's ability can allow you to use the game text on the {{Card|Horn of Boromir}} all game long. Perhaps you've run into a wounding-based minion side? Give Boromir {{Card|The Saga of Elendil}}, and he can act as a powerful renewable source for Free Peoples vitality (just watch out for sudden-death cards like {{Card|Hate}}, {{Card|Greed}} and Shotgun Enquea).

Boromir is decidedly not a choke-card, so don't let the '''Ranger''' keyword fool you. But that keyword does give him access to [[Site Manipulation|site manipulation]], expanded skirmish-phase options, and various forms of minion removal such as {{Card|What Are They}}, {{Card|Pursuit Just Behind}} and {{Card|Gondor's Vengeance}}. 

As a final note, DoTM's Gandalf signet can also make this version of Boromir a good candidate for inclusion in a {{Card|Trust Me As You Once Did}} deck.
