    I know I'm getting off topic here, but I wanted to expand on this a bit more because I disagree with this point.

    I personally prefer running Mythflox SRs on WHM because I feel the WHM toolkit does it better than the SCH toolkit. Holy, when weaved correctly, provides a straight 10 seconds of stun time on every single mob, as well additional damage (further compounded if you have a BRD using Foe Requiem). When combined with Divine Seal + Convalescence + Regen + Medica II, you're looking at least 1,000+HP/tick, as well as Benediction in a pinch (save this for pull #1, don't need if for pull #2). Even without Foe Requiem (I believe the preferred group is WAR BLM BLM Healer), you're now helping down mobs faster thanks to Holy AND providing a straight 10 seconds of 100% mitigation while your HoTs are ticking.

    I am wondering how the SCHs toolkit excels past this, because I personally cannot see it and I would like to understand the "why". I've done the SR with both healers (though I admit that I have done it more with WHM than SCH) and would like to further my knowledge of the SCH SR tactics.
