I don't have a doubt in my mind Broil is too strong on its' current state and there's no way it'll last to the start of s5, but to gut it means to also gut Scholar's first chance at actually standing out as a solid pick. Blind is weak, we had Ruin II in S4 and it rarely made an ounce of difference compared to the CC of AST/WHM, I'm not totally opposed to 2, but it'd be counter productive to use it unless you're seriously ahead and if this is the case, you'd probably get more ahead by just not using it. Give other healers access to it? No, give them something as good as it whilst still offering something unique. Give AST a disgusting healing debuff cast, give WHM an ability to temporarily ignore line of sight or cast whilst moving/channeled heal whilst moving or something - give them something to put them in a level playing field instead of just suggesting "dump it".
