Scholar is the better healer...

[kukurumei]

Anytime eos dies, your sch goes poop...really...someone is going to die if your fairy is preoccupied for whatever reason. Anytime the sch runs out of aether flow stacks, you're in trouble. Anytime your pt takes Aoe damage, your sch is screwed. Anytime 2 sch's meet, you're screwed

Sch just can't heal, they patch. That's what a whm is for.

And sch actually have a lower dps then a whm. They can do more damage using instants like ruin2,bio in high movement, but a whm will beat them on pure stats. Sch int and mnd are too close together to make cleric stance nearly as good as a whm who has all the mnd turned into int.

Sch can only patchwork and think ahead, but even lustre is a cheap comparison to one whm cure bomb.

People who have whm, look to sch and think it's easy, sch looks to whm and think it's easy. it's just "grass is greener" syndrome.

Final thought is: 2xwhm will still work better then 2xsch. seriously sch's healing is so limited, you better hope the tank doesn't kill the fary by accident, that can lead to a near wipe if not reacted fast enough.
