What healers could stand to lose.

I think the core of the issue is really that jobs are designed for Savage raiding and as a result perform poorly in other content. Sure you need all these things when doing that content but anything else it's just too much.

Hence why the delete list is terrible, it's obvious they don't know how useful the skills are in savage and ultimate settings. Dungeons and most casual content almost 80% of the kit isn't quite optimal, can use at-will or whatever you want.

I don’t agree with most of the delete list but at the same time not everything is useful in Savage either. Fluid Aura is still useless as an example.

Fluid aura and repose can be very useful in potd/hoh, and Eureka when solo. If it's not content you run or you otherwise don't want them, just take them off your hotbar? But they're objectively useful, if also situational.

umm... bigger question. Why delete anything?
All 3 healers just went through a big "simplification" of their jobs. Can we just downvote this entire thread?

SCHs calling for removal of Indom and other ogcd heals must've never healed hard content while trying to do good dps.

Because we’re told the game is balanced around savage/ex.

And they are off my bar. When a skill is dead 95% of the time why have it? Delete or change it. But I’m a guy that also thinks Shield Bash should be removed.

Here's an idea. SCH could lose aetherflow. Hear me out, I'm not saying get rid of the mechanic, just the button associated with it. Since it's combat only anyways now, have it automatically do what it does now when a battle starts, and instead of having to press a button to get your aetherflow, you just get your stacks with a 60 second timer underneath that will automatically refresh your stacks, and give mana,as soon as the time is up. It frees up a button so we can have more interesting things and doesn't interfere with SCH's playstyle of managing aetherflow between DPS and healing. (assuming SE doesn't do a stupid move and get rid of energy drain a second time)

Snip

On similar lines; AST can lose draw, just have a card spat into their hand every 30s

Isn’t that just reducing it to WHM Lily gen then?

I guess? It's just a suggestion, not necessarily something I want, but if the only difference between lilies and aetherflow is pressing a single button, then they're already practically the same mechanic. I only suggest it so there isn't an excuse of "muh button bloat".
