Why dont multiple sch shield stack?

[AquariusHaken]

As it this now. Whm are able to stack the heal over time from their medica 2 on the same target. what I mean is that they can both be applied at the same time. But why is every shielding ability from multiple scholar not in this case? Only the strongest shield at a certain moment is applied, removing the other one. I think it makes it increasingly difficult to have 2 sch. (From exp 2whm goes a lot smoother)

2 adlo + 2 SS + stoneskin... who'll take ANY damage anymore. Imagine if they crit. It'd be way OP I think.

I personally hate 2-WHM combo (dat overheal)... but 2-SCH is also horrible. Shields don't stack--and I guess for good reason. Crit shields stacking sounds OP to me. I don't know if SE will change or implement a new system to shield-stacking, but so far nothing has been mentioned.

Same reason why stoneskins don't stack: Two White Mage stoneskins on a 10k HP warrior is 3600 points worth of damage. Two adloquiums on the same tank is good for ~2500 points worth of damage (up to 8000 with healing buffs up)

Having multiple HoT spells doesn't save you from getting killed instantly (Death sentence, Blighted Bouquette, Raven's beak etc.) but having two stoneskins or two galvanized (especially when it crits) allows you to go #yolo on too many things it would break mechanics.

If SCH shields would stack, there would be 0 reason to ever bring a WHM to end-game content again (there's already little reason currently given that they made all content equally heal-able by both, but SCH adds more utility to the party makeup).

As people said, it would ruin the dynamics at play. It also lets one SCH to go full dps and rotate depending on the situation.

I also greatly dislike sharing the dice roll with anothet SCH. Mogtome is all mine mwahahah

shield stacking its impossible......

Yes, having twice as many mini-Bene's and another of the better-DPS healer is so horrible.

Two Medica IIs and two Regens will still heal for 0 HP for the duration. The awesome thing about Galvanize is that it's never wasted.

You say that, but even when I crit for 3000 the shield goes down extremely quick where as say mid battle if you have two regens on the tank it's gonna get him back to full health in 3 seconds on top of that if you divine seal it's even more likely that the tank won't need much healing. If it was two scholars the tank needs much more attention, because we don't have regen.
