SCH is gimp, pls buff, WHM is too stronk

Guys, please buff SCH. I have both jobs at i120 and SCH is so bad is not even funny anymore.

All I can say is this, if you are trying to heal like a WHM on SCH, you're playing SCH wrong. I macro my SCH a lot, healing on SCH is so easy a result for me. Also, WHM is all about catch up heals after the damage is already done, SCH has some mitigation that WHM doesn't, and can help a ton if you use the spells at the right time and place and actually can have SCH outdoing WHM as a result. Like all those times someone missed a door in Lost City and my Sacred Soil and Succor saved everyone's butts by limiting the damage taken, for example. WHM doesn't have nearly the same options when it comes to mitigation.

Yep, probably the biggest issue is many attempt to play SCH like it's WHM, a reactive healer and end up not playing the job well at-all.

Of course for mitigation all they have is Stoneskin and cross-classing welfare-versions of our EoE and Virus, if they even use them properly.

Not causing a stir here because I main both jobs

Haha, yeah. Just because we can't make the hp bars go up until they go down is no reason not to anticipate the fight and set up via precasting or whatnot.
