A different solution would have been to move WHM's healing more towards oGCDs, but this would have further homogenised the healing jobs. I actually think the new lily system is a fairly elegant and innovative solution to the problem. Game devs don't get enough credit.
The problem is that both other healer have the sufficient Ogcd healing tools and weave possibilities too use them and lose either almost no dmg or if so little it doesn’t matter and they also have group support that whm doesn’t has at all. I mean it isn’t that hard to start by giving blood lily 300-600 more potency as a decent replacement for missing ogcd. Whm only strength is dmg because astro and sch can heal almost more efficiently then whm and you can’t use his dmg potential cause you are kneecapped by bad job design. Even Blm is more Mobil then whm and that should tell you how bad he is.
