Idea of a New WHM Mechanic: Thorns

[Jxnibbles]

By what metric? Dungeon trash?

Apparently Dungeon trash is a metric to justify us not getting any party utility or buffs. Anyway last I checked Sch was still beating Whm in savage in terms of DPS.

Lets not even get started on Crit buffs which is what will be scaling extremely well moving forward and Whm has 0 of that. Or party utility vs Selfish Dps.

But you know Holy so OP lets spam Holy during boss fights.

Why does WHM need party buffs? It has a use as the most valuable healer during progression due to it's (sometimes overly) powerful heals and high number of tools, and is the most represented healer in savage if I remember correctly.

Giving WHM a party damage buff would just be pointless homogenization. If you were to look further, you'd see that SCH has ALWAYS beaten WHM in personal dps, even though WHM has always been mathematically superior. Literally always. Since 2.0 all the way until now.
