If you're a SCH and you get matched up against Monk or Astro you've probably lost btw lol.

I also noticed that Eos also gets the benefits of Wolf Heart. ( ' w ')bOne thing i noticed about scholar is that when it has the wolf heart buff it simply spams adlo and no one dies, this hardspam of adlo lasts till end of match and really no one of the sch team dies, sch shields are op, some say it's somewhat weak against summoners and a relevant amount of dots on target
Why? Okay so, MNK tears through healers, and SCH lacks CC.. is there more to it?
Why AST?
Let me know. ( ' w ')b

Same reason it tears through other healers, you pretty much get purged spammed to death. But it hurts us even more because they can also dispel our aether stacks.
Aetherflow stacks can't be removed with buff removing abilities.

To be fair. Monk can still put a serious about of pressure down that can be hard to predict. The only upside is that if you manage to heal through their burst and pressure, they hit like wet noodles until they're GL3 again. (Which can be immediate if you don't blind them or CC them before axe kick.)
Updated OP to reflect what I feel is the current assessment of healer potential.
Please continue to challenge or debate rankings!
Would like to move onto melee DPS discussion;
Dragoon, Monk, Ninja;
Let us know how you feel!

Well yeah that and it doesn't stop them purging through everything else.To be fair. Monk can still put a serious about of pressure down that can be hard to predict.

(Which can be immediate if you don't blind them or CC them before axe kick.)
Also Arista mate, Astro is definitely above Scholar lol. It's not that Scholar is bad, it's just someone's gotta be the weakest and in this case with everything taken into account it is us.

Nin burst window is very hard to execute and just gets shut down by any cc. If your trying to cast a mudra and get cc'ed you use purify and it breaks the ninjutsu. Trick attack can be blinded very easily. Our 3 second silence is on a 90 second cd and healers still can use abilities during it rendering it 1 missed GCD every 90 seconds. Our sukuchi often allows 1 extra melee spell to hit us before escaping due to long cast time. opening up from stealth feels terrible trying to land a TA on a moving ranged target. Using bind really hurts our dps. We have the least survivability. Very hard to switch targets quickly out of burst window for dmg without applying DE or SF which is 5 gcd's. Hard to maintain Huton and feels punishing to use AC as a positional.

Roll the dice and hope your team are not "Garo bois"
