SCH needs to be significantly buffed

[Liam_Harper]

Let's not attack each other for "throwing fits" over class balance, the ideal way to get healer feedback ignored is to become petty over one healer being better than another in the past and start squabbling among ourselves over it.

I personally never understood the mentality of "this class has been good for a long time, I'm glad they wrecked it now!". It was the same with tanks when WAR became the least played, the gloating from other tanks was silly. Which dev would take feedback seriously when they read "I want my class to have toys but not SCH because they got them last expansion!". SCH is the least popular healer in the game now, it could do with some work.

They can spoil SCH to bits for all I care as long as they make the other two fun to play and viable too.

I personally never understood the mentality of "this class has been good for a long time, I'm glad they wrecked it now!"

I only take this stance out of intense urge to troll people who drive me nuts with their hypocrisy. Every time I say "all three healers have been made unfun, we should fix this", some Scholar comes out of the woodwork to wail and screech about "BUT SCHOLAR WAS NERFED THE WORST NONE OF YOU UNDERSTAND HOW FAR WE FELL, WE NEED THE MOST ATTENTION", and my stance shifts just a touch toward ".....maaaaaaybe not you. Just to see what happens when you take a taste of the neglect your fellow other non-chronically-overpowered healers see".

It's not like this is new, Scholars were dramatically flinging themselves at their fainting couches in 4.0 and calling themselves "unfairly targeted" all fecking expansion, when they were a mandatory slot again within two weeks. I was surprised they didn't get superbuffed yet this expansion.

Let's just say I'm glad I'm having fun with RDM, because I got very, very, very, very, very, very, very, incredibly bone-tired of forum Scholarinas telling White Mages to "stop complaining, you'll get buffed eventually" only to raise Cain on the rare occasion they dipped below "best healer evar", then to return to telling White Mages to "calm down" once they got buffed. In an endless cycle.

... dramatically flinging themselves at their fainting couches...

I laughed out loud, amazing job.

I know that feeling man. Just seeing sch being so super strong and always being picked for all raif tiers up until ShB. And the moment they become the new “whm” and aren’t always taken anymore they cry bloody murder and want too be the most picked again instead of wanting the jobs to be fun plan and being diverse from each other. Too be fair healing in itself is a joke atm with boring game play and heavy boring downtime’s.

Exactly. WHM spent essentially all of SB as the worst healer there where as SCH (apart from release when Adlo was like 2k MP or something, among other issues) was the guaranteed pick all expansion.

It's just that SCH mains get used to this and then when they're suddenly confronted with the possibility of having to play another job it's this huge tragedy.

Like, girl I've been learning and playing 2 jobs for years now just to be able to swap between AST and WHM as SE fumbles for balance - I think you'll be okay.

I honestly don't understand why you would want to make someone playing another class unhappy just because you didn't like how your class was managed. (1) it doesn't help anyone (2) it isn't like you didn't have options.

I don't see why you're getting so triggered, but it doesn't really add anything helpful.
