OMG Give us an AOE heal that is not worthless!

[Alpheus]

I'm surprised they didn't keep the relationship that SCH and WHM had from FFXI which was while both had access up to cure IV WHMs had CuragasI-IV (Medicas) and access to Cure V (static enmity and capable of healing large amounts w/o having optimal builds) and Cure VI. SCH had superior Regen and specialized in heal over time and the capability to manipulate a spell's recast MP cost and whether it was single target or AoE in addition to increasing the duration of buffs. I'm mainly surprised since Arcanist specializes in DoTs you'd think the healer variant would be based on HoTs.

I recommend using the guy's idea of having it eat the shield to boost cure amount or give it a innate chance to crit (although that might give way to huge enmity spikes) via trait. I just hope they add "Enhances X ability/Action" gear with decent stats I'm surprised AF is so plain w/ their stats.
