What makes WHM special? Nothing anymore.

Now your just being rude and frankly hypocritical.

A group of angry people is complaining about an imagined problem. They have decided that they are immune to reason.

In a few weeks, this will blow over and Whine Mages will go back to being White Mages when they stop chicken-littling and realize just how much better their toolkit is than AST's.

Having a healing Job who's design philosophy is built around pure healing output is flawed.

Yeah, seriously, who would EVER want to be identified as the best healer in the game?

On the contrary, some1 with all classes leveled tend to to hell less knowledge than someone who didint, that is the flaw of the multiple class system this game has, it encourages casual play. Its easier to make an assesment if you pushed your class to the limits and mastered it to almost perfection than someone who leveled all 3 but isint even taking 50% advantage of the kit. If i was a master monk pushing my class to the outmost boundries of dps, it would be easier for me to tell wht thae class is lacking / what other dps classes have over mine comapred to someone who plays nin/drg/mnk but is doing sub par dps.

...And yet they could be dual or tri-maining classes, meaning they COULD know something about all of them.

Whereas the people who don't have these classes leveled are GUARANTEED to know jack squat nothing about how they play at cap.
