Good point. Virus with E4E is extremely potent. The only difference between the mitigation is Sacred Soil, which isn't exactly a wonderful spell (considering CDs vs. Aetherflow CD).

I can see why they don't give us the AoE heals from WHM, because that largely defeats the theory behind a SCH. I like how monks can cross class their healing buff. I like how WHMs can get our mitigation abilities, because they matter and are needed. If you are a WHM and you don't have Virus and E4E - shame on you.

I don't want WHMs to lose those cross-class abilities, but it does cause a situation where SCHs get shafted. Perhaps in it's place we should be able to pick 1-2 traits? You'd have to be careful with that since traits are potent stuff.
