And I honestly cannot say it feels the same with what it lost, yes, it was classified as a healer but most people I've met agreed that it was fun because it was the healer/dps hybrid. Its rotation wasnt complex, but it had a rotation! It's main resource was for dps and healing, and while I never had the pleasure of trying HW, I hear about how wonderful it was and truly being able to be a dps/healer hybrid. Now scholar is nothing but broil machine 3000 with half a dozen unnecessary heals (physick, Fey blessing, seraph, the HoT on sacred, or just sacred in general honestly, Fey union, and a lot will argue for dissipation, which ironically would've been great this expac if we still had ED, go figure) not to say any of those abilities are entirely useless, they're certainly not, but remove them and I doubt any scholar would have trouble healing any content.
Haha well!!! You should have played HW xd that was definition of risk/reward! Cleric stance Lets go!
But i may come off veeery deluded and as i said its a personal opinion so idc what others view the job as. Buts its alrigjt i was trying to put up a point but failed to do so cuse its almost 4 am here so eh.

Sch sure has dozen of unecessary skills for this expac even. Hell im using sacred soil more lol.
