What is the be Healer?

[DamianFatale]

I\\\\'m training healer classes, so I wanna know what you think. What is the best healer in the game right now.

Scholar*



* Not even kidding

[Velox]

As of 3.1, SCH hands down. Can heal, buff, debuff, mitigate, DPS...it's the perfect jack-of-all-trades job.

[TatoRazzino]

Depends on playstyle and your objectives.

Scholar also has the highest skill cap to play it WELL.

WHM is probably the strongest "pure" healer.

[NorthernLadMSP]

The best healer is WHM.

The best DPS-healer combo is SCH.

The best buffer-healer combo is AST.

A true healer would have all three leveled and geared.

[Mimilu]

It comes down to playstyle:
If you want strong heals and HoTs, go WHM
If you want to deal with damage mitigation and also want to do the most DPS a healer can, SCH
If you want speed, mobility, and buffs, go AST

[Naria]

It depends, under what circumstances are you going to be healing? I prefer sch overall but tend to play it mostly premades, when I know the tank or other healer. For the DF I mostly play whm, since it gives me more abilities to compensate for mistakes.

The class that is "best" is determined by your own comfort and ability with each role.

[Roxas_Andrade]

The best one is the one you like most.
