LB is fine, WHM's kit between LBs is garbage compared to every other healer's, they are wholly reliant on landing big LB hits to make things work (which is why WHM falls off hard in high skill games.) They fixed the Cure 2 bug in the 6.11 hotfix. It's fine. They probably actually need Misery to go back to 12k because they currently have the lowest DPS output of any healer over time.
WAR: High DPS, high control, and they are by far the most fragile tank because of it after the Bloodwhetting nerfs in 6.11. Orogeny and Onslaught cost a substantial amount of HP and their sustain got nerfed, making them much more tricky to play. Unlike DRK, they don't get invuln with their LB. It's fine.
BLM: *Probably* overpowered now after the unnecessary potency buffs in 6.11a, but it's hardly gamebreaking. LOSing is very important against BLM because of how much time they need to spend casting spells. Standing in the open is a death sentence if there's a halfway competent BLM around. They should probably revert the potency increases, but it's otherwise fine.
DNC: Strong class, but it *needs* a coordinated team. Which makes it pretty unreliable in forced solo queue. DNC is extremely powerful if you have a competent DPS on your team, weak otherwise. It's fine.
GNB: Highest DPS tank, reasonably tanky, and even moreso after the buffs. DPS and Healer junctions are by far the best to use and they are also the most likely you'll have reliably. 20% boost to healing output from No Mercy is no joke, it's quite significant and means Aurora and the AOE healing procs can provide an immense amount of sustain for your team and yourself. GNB with DPS junction has DPS output equivalent to a melee DPS while being tankier than all of them except MNK, and has extremely high burst potential. It's fine.
No offense, man, but I think you aren't playing in high skill games. Pretty much everything you said is stuff you only hear low skill players saying.
