Isn't it about time for WHM to get an AOE mitigation tool?

I'm surprised you feel the way you do, from my quick scan over, it looks like you run with a fairly regular team but seemed to get a new co healer every week?

After Alexander, I felt like the static life wasn't for me. So I just run weekly with a couple friends and pug the remaining members.

Did you get far into NeoExdeath? Your low Cure III rate has me wondering how disciplined your group was in terms of positioning.

I make use of Cure III, but very rarely. Usually an Indom and medica/II from myself covers everything just fine. This is true for everything but Neo Exdeath, which I do regularly Cure III for every Almagest. Perhaps me not having a static group is effecting my opinion on Cure III? I just feel that it's so situational that it's not worth using and possibly missing multiple members of your party half the time.

This is why I feel like Indom and Earthly Star is stronger. Not because it actually heals for more, but because it's far easier to use and get the power of a Cure III without the need of trusting your entire team to be around you as you cast it.
You can't spam it, but even with O4S' Almagest I have never needed to SPAM Cure III. Heck, if I did I'd probably be dead the next second because of aggro reset.

Not denying it has it's uses though. When a mechanic forces you to stack, it's my go to heal.

It'd mostly be an advantage for progression time, an area where WHM is already a powerhouse. Don't you think we would be better off with something to help our raid synergy for when things are going smoothly?

Someone brought up a point that WHM excels in progression content, but falls behind a bit in farm/speedkills, and that if it did well in speedkill and farming content as well it would be unbalanced.

I'm of the opinion that it's not healthy for a job to only shine in content that'll only be called true progression for about 2 months at most, but I also agree that WHM shouldn't be good at EVERYTHING, and giving them utility would do just that.
So honestly...I don't know what I want for WHM lol.
On paper, they're completely fine. It's just me personally that feels like they're missing something.

I guess everything I've said till now has been pretty baseless when I consider that I myself don't know what I want :P
WHM could have nothing done to them from now till 5.0, and I'm sure it would be fine, but I'll also feel like theres a little annoying hole in their kit all the while...
