Are healers supposed to be this weak ?

[Sylvina]

Hello,
I recently started this game, i'm now level 61 with my scholar and its also the only job I use for the moment, i'm really enjoying the story and all but, ever since level 50 everything became so difficult and painful to kill
I'm just at the beginning of the stormblood story line and monsters seems undefeatable

I understand that this is a healing class but does it really have to take me two minutes to kill one regular mob of my level ? Or I am doing something wrong ?

Scholar is considered the best dps healer at level cap. I don't remember how it was at 60 since i leveled mine by leveling SMN but it will get better assuming you play it right.

I leveled exclusively via SCH. It's hard going compared to DPS and Tank classes but with Eos there to heal you and a chocobo to help with the damage it's probably the easiest of the healers to level through the MSQ.
