SCH needs some nerfs

[NobleWinter]

I had to work really hard to wrap my mind around how a healer could function outside of the regen/shield healing toolset we are used to. The only thing I could imagine is a healer that revolved around debuffs. They would lessen the outgoing damage from a boss or mob and create the illusion of healing by negating the incoming damage itself. It wouldn't be a "shield" for the party so much as poison for enemies. I think it would be neat to see a healing class like that because their skillset wouldn't have any issues with buffs for the party that can overwrite the cohealer.

This is honestly such an outdated concept that I don't know how anyone is even still clinging to it. Yes you do need shields to mitigate tank busters and so on, but these are hardly the defining characteristics of these classes. Everyone also seems to forget that WHM has consistently had a shield since the beginning of ARR.
