Bard. 13 kills, 130k damage in a 12 minute match. Lulz

Two things strike me about that image:
1. That damage actually isn't very impressive (I manage about that much damage regularly and I'm a warrior)
2. NEARLY 300,000 DAMAGE HEALED. WTF?

As someone who was in that match can confirm I've seen those numbers regularly. Divine Sealed medica 2 + regens rolling on 8 people, it adds up quick. Specially if you're on a post that's hot most of the match.

Both Equanimity and Surecast don't stop stuns nor silences, that's my main gripe.

Its a shame scholars won't see such numbers because Eos does most of our healing. While we either just mitigate damage or dps. :3

If only people could actually work in team...

Mass Sleep + BLM/SMN AoE 2 = many dead.

I believe it is quite balanced at the moment, far from perfect but it's quite balanced.

we will never see those numbers because whms are burst healers and SCH just the migrators.
fairy Whisp dawn is weak too and only worth a damn if you rouse and fairy ill. it and even then its not as good as the divine seal + medica + regen combo.
plus it takes to long to set up your rouse+succor+whisp+ill combo even if you macro it. XD

i was facing BRD, SMN, SCH and all others 1 on 1, they don't really stand a chance against a pure DPS like DRG or MNK. Even MNK vs DRG

Not even in your wildest dreams you can 1v1 a good SCH with a MNK/DRG.

Unless you are a terrible SCH, like 90% of your SCH heals (without counting eos/selene) will be succor/adloquim. Only a noob uses physick and lets his team die, and you have enough mana regeneration tools to never run out of mana (Aetherflow and Mana Draw). In other words, as a SCH, you are healing as much as you are mitigating, so if you heal 120k as a SCH, the real numbers may be around 200k because the data doesn't take shields provided by adlo and succor into account.
