Should WHM get a personal damage buff?

[EaMett]

The WHM identity issue lies in the fact that it conflicts directly with the game design. They give the WHM the biggest HPS weiner and then design encounters that can be done with the lowest HPS healer around. It's like bringing a bulldozer to destroy a sand castle.
The result is that the only time a WHM gets to express it's identity is when people screw up (progression).

This doesn't mean that WHM isn't balanced or that it needs some sort of buff. It just means SE views WHM as a beginner healer with an easy to use skill set and a lot of HPS padding to help beginners and not so skilled healers tackle all the content.
It just turns out that this sucks for the WHMs that don't identify with that demographic. (not to mention WHM's absence from the meta)
