A single simple solution to Paladin

[Zagen]

They only suck in healing when compared to a WHM or a BLU with a good MND build.

Don't forget SCH for stronger Cures with JAs, AoE Buffs/Status removals. Sure a PLD/SCH could do this but not as well as SCH main due to only 2 charges not accounting for better cure gear.

Or how RDM can handle curing for a longer amount of time due to refresh 2. Also that spiffy cure pot staff trumps light staff PLD can get.

Or how about a BRD/WHM who is also on the cure pot staff and has access to ballad2/3 as well

Edit: Forgot how SMN is on cure pot staff has access to a cure pot+14% body through battle trophies on top of the buffs/cures their avatars could do.

So yes PLD is a sucky healer.
