SCH and SGE(?) will be Shield Healers.

If Scholar is anything to go on, a Shield Healer will Prioritize Mitigation and probly have more DPS options. (I know, ShB they took away alot of DPS, but that might change now)
Oh yeah, forgot they mentioned that. But Im still curious about the skill layout. If they go with DPS Orientated vs Mitigation, arent theyre gonna run into the issue in previous xpacs where SCH was the defacto choice for savage cause its damage output was pretty high. Though maybe they could die damage to mitigation (as in if shield pops, it deals damage, otherwise its just flat mitigation).
