Sequence it properly and you’ll get Dissipation for that Succor and only need to use one GCD heal (sometimes I’ve had to use a second Lustrate).

Current Scholar has enough raw throughput for those mechanics. The minimum I’d want is charges on ET for extra consistency, even if it means that gets a cooldown nerf. It’s not my go-to ability for those situations but it certainly helps. If Indom got changed so it had more throughput when used in conjunction with Physick (Ex. Indom now shares a CD with Lustrate, but its potency goes down to 300 while Phyaick grants a buff that increases it and Lustrate’s potency by 40-50%) then you’d have an easier time with Living Dead and White Hole solo while still preferring the aid of another healer to some degree.
Yes as you said it, "If you're prepared for it" thats the problem I see with current Sch that for those mechanics you need to be prepared while the rest of the healers of the game doesnt have to, Ast/Whm is obvious why not but even if you look at SGE heals it can do it by gcds alone, obviously no one would heal those mechanics with gcds if they can use other tools but given the case I feel weird that the "shit's hit the fan" heals can't be reliable under those circunstances.
