New WHM class trainer announced!

With the upcoming level cap increases, the Padjal of Gridania have nothing left to teach you.


Now you will learn the mysterious art of healing from your new trainer:


Eos.



The fairy has a thing or two to teach you about AOE Heal over time spells specifically.

WHM hot gets lowered ---> Better complain about Eos

Because Eos aoe doesn't have cd's.

sigh, Whispering Dawn has a smaller radius (15y vs. 20y), and a 35% uptime. Though it can be quite powerful when combined with Rouse, and comes Enmity-free and without mana-cost, it is a complementary heal. Before 2.1 there was virtually no way of controlling Eos's timing on this, making it largely wasted. Now .. most capable SCH will use it when required .. This means .. for the typical WHM/SCH group, the ability to output reliable AoE healing has gone up with this patch and the Medica II change balances this to some degree.

Think of SCH as your complement, not your rivals, that's how I think of the WHM alongside me in raids, and I think you should too.

Or you can use double scholar and Rotate whisper dawn CDs since aoe damage typically comes in bursts rather than sustained which you conveniently ignored.

Um you just keep eos on steady. When you want her to spike heal you activate rouse, click on fey illumination and she will then cast whispering dawn on her own...

I agree with everything else you say though :)

Sort of how you conveniently ignore that without a WHM none of your party have protection from magical damage.

The same can be said for Eos' fey illumination, sacred soil, super virus and the reduced CD on an eye for an eye which all serve to reduce or mitigate damage to the same or greater effect.

It's situational but the fairy can cast fey covenant which provides magic defense up to 20%.

i think he just trolling SE becoz medica II HoT is halved
i'm fuming here
2 stack HoT medica 2 now from 2 WHM = 1 whispering dawn of Eos
so much of my pride... all gone lol

it's funny how people "migrate" at the slight hint of trouble ...

THATS IT IM DROPPING BLM CUZ SCATHE WAS NERFED ....

You know what, I was lvling bard FOR FUN, PRE patch. Guess what ? I'LL STILL MAKE IT 50 !!!!

Why !? BECAUSE IT'S FUN .. you know that 3 letter word ? Yeah not S.E.X ... F U N ... although they relate.

I'm sticking to my guns, and i'm no hopping on the bandwagon. I like healing as a whm, I like dpsing as a brd/blm. I'm having fun, and that's what counts. It's a balancing act, sometimes there are nerfs, sometimes there are buffs, have faith, we can't have all the candy on every patch otherwise we'll all be fat lalafells.

OP is just having a little joke lol .

Reaction healing is fine, right until something reduces your healing. Then what? Granted its only twintania atm but thats also the thing everyone wants to kill for those shiny ilvl 95 weapons. You still need to prestoneskin and roll a heal before death sentence lands.

You HAVE to be proactive, you just have less tools for it.
