Theres a lot of things my SCH can pull of in coil compared to my WHM, its not even comparable.

And the same can be said the other way round as well.
I pulled a save off in T13 phase 4 after the OT died to the holmgang Ankh morn and SCH to the megaflare before Shaker/Tether/Tempest>Giga>shared Ankh Morn. You can see my healing dip in the logs as I raise both people followed by a sustained 3000-4000HPS effort over the next minute as I burn MP keeping people up solo through the following mechanics.
Could I have done that as SCH? If I was being lazy with my cooldown usage and had a few charges + aetherflow + fey illum in my pocket then perhaps. MP isn't likely to be an issue, and even when it is, I can usually play conservatively to get back on track within a minute or two.
As WHM? My cooldowns were a non issue (I didn't have DS in the situation used above) and I'm confident in my ability to pull off huge bursts of healing pretty much on the drop of a pin regardless of what CDs I have on tap. Instead the issue here is that if the same thing happened the following megaflare, chances are I simply won't have the MP to do the same.
As I've said many times, I fail to see the problem with this balance. The issue of course is that the vast majority of this game's content simply doesn't require anything like the raw healing throughput that I pulled there. I average 1200-1400HPS in T13 and have hit phase 3 with a 1900HPS average on occasions when the SCH has been an issue. By comparison, if I'm doing more than 500-600 in the likes of WoD it's usually a complete waste.
Just because *you* may not see content in which WHM truly shines, doesn't automatically make it a broken class. I'm confident I'll still be playing WHM when the push for 3.0 Savage Alex server firsts hits.
