I just can't understand the "WHM is for beginners" argument. At level 70, coming on soon to 80 you aren't a beginner anymore. There isn't any other beginner job in the game, even the easier jobs like RDM, PLD and SAM have ways to really make themselves shine and be useful to your group, why would they make a single job for beginners and every other job in the game advanced? It doesn't make sense.

It's really just a failed identity. They want WHM to be this pure healer, but it can't happen because they also want every other healer to heal just as good as WHM and design their content based on this. It doesn't work and I wish they would move on instead of trying to force it to work.
