    You also have to realize how things were.

    In ARR, there was no other shield healer. SCH was the only one, so, yeah, they were "awesome" by default.

    In HW, it's a multi-sided thing that "mad our shields awesome". Our MP efficiency was amazing because Aetherflow instantly restored 20% MP on every press, not 10%, and Adloquium was much cheaper to spam to crit-fish for Deployment Tactics. Embrace was much stronger, allowing the fairy to carry much more of the healing bulk. Cleric Stance was a Mind/Int swap instead of a small, general damage boost, and Healers in general had more DoTs (SCH had the most). SCH could stay in Cleric Stance much longer than the other two healers, making its DPS potential crazy high (which made it very valuable). In addition, AST shields were pathetic, and it lacked any sort of passive healing.

    Yeah, I really don't need you to school me in anything. I've been playing SCH as one of my main jobs for almost 4 full years. I'm fully aware of of their history.
