Which healer do you suggest and how to lvl

and their DPS is locked hard behind very short DoTs and ACC issues.

Read again more closely ~.^ I'm saying the DPS has utility in a raid environment, not the CC.

DoTs are a bit weird, Aero 1 being a DPS loss and Aero 2 being OK but meh. Aero 3, however, is pretty amazing even single target. But the burst DPS comes PoM + Stone III which is amazing even with accuracy issues. It can really help push anything in a fight that requires a sudden burst of DPS, which Alex has had and has in the current tier, sometimes primals have (ravana, bismarck, Zurvan, etc), and so on.

As I said way back on page 1... WHM is overshadowed. But horrible in raiding? No. It's a little behind the others, but it brings a lot to the table still. People are wont to turn "slightly behind" into a perception of "horrible", though, I'll grant that :/

edit: Which, come to think of it, is probably why the first post reads like it does, as though white mage is somehow an unplayable job..
