High DPS? What? WHM is marginally better than the other healers, especially SCH, in single target, and if you consider that said other healers can actually increase party DPS, WHM is far, far, FAR behind even in that regard. And no, they cannot compare to AST healing output at all. AST has a 10% potency modifier on ALL their heals in Diurnal, 15% in Nocturnal. WHM got... a 50 potency increase on Cure and Cure II. That's not really comparable, AST blows WHM way out of the water in EVERY regard. AST also got an instant ST heal on a 40 sec CD, and don't even make me start with Earthly Star. F*** that skill, honestly, and whoever tought that's a good idea to implement. And I didn't compare WHM and SCH. I said the choice what second healer you will take will be between WHM or SCH, because AST is so OP that they are almost guaranteed a spot in a static. I didn't say WHM and SCH are the same, but they are equally lacking compared to AST, just in their respective regards. I also know the differences between healers quite well, thank you very much.
The only thing WHM is really good at is decimating dungeon packs, so I guess I will stay a dungeon healer for the rest of my playtime because I CAN'T DO ANYTHING OUTSIDE OF DUNGEONS THE OTHERS CANNOT DO BETTER!
Maybe at the part where Diurnal Sect grants 10% more healing on EVERY skill the AST (not abilities), with comparable potencies as WHM???
Never said it's bad. But I'm really disappointed, and actually quite enraged, at how BLIND the people doing healer balance are, and how little they actually care for what the people who play the jobs daily tell them. Because if they would listen, we wouldn't have this problem to begin with because WHM would have something that makes taking them to raids over the other healers actually worthwile. But now. They play ostrich and just burry their heads in the sand.
