But if EX/savage content being busy with healing makes up for lack of it in anything prior to that then it's also fine if healers wont be busy in 11 savage raids, they will be in 12th one and that will make all of it totally fine? No we def have to wait for entire ShB content!

Well you look like you don't even raid so like... unless this an alt, how would you know if it'll take that long?
You haven't did any of SB Savage to know how hard healing will be to "you" not others.

Bc how our skills work there is more to it then just placing dots down and then spamming 1 1 1 1 1. We had to make choices on how to cover damage tank was taking through fairy, there buffs, or aether stacks that were weaved in between the 1 1 1 1 1. Which is by far more engaging that whm dps. Ast at least you have cards to mess around with.

That being said, I am extremely against waiting til extreme/savage. You shouldn't have to wait until then to have a class come to life and be fun. I will pass judgement at 80 if not sooner. In the end, majority of content is not high end. And dear lord if I gotta go from 30 to 80 as a sch, I'd switch to smn and that would be that. But its not just the dps aspect, its being locked in with no way to spend aether stacks unless healing. I hate to say it, but this is the sb lily system all over again. You either gonna overheal to get ride of stacks or just hit aetherflow to get mana. That sucks.

Maybe. I won't argue with what you find fun with sch.
I want to say I'm not trying to diss any scholars upset with the changes, but just from my PoV it just doesn't seem that big of a deal when your core rotation was mostly 1.1.1.1 with weaving in healing. That still doesn't change the simplicity.((Keep in mind I'm only talking about the dps skills not healing))
