To reiterate what I said before: I enjoy running a Sage, regardless of how people categorize the class.
And I enjoy it more than I did WHM, which seems more like the "pure healer" you want to play.
Never expected that, BTW: I outleveled the MSQs so I picked up Sage just to "not waste the XP" from the MSQs.
Glad I did.
No, i disagree. SGE follows the same rules as all healer follow and do not do anything special. Look at the toolkit and look and the other healer's and you will see: healers are similar.
People that say SGE is the "dps healer" need to explain that stance and stop to drop it like it is "wisdom from the gods".

When your argument is based on Kardia then then i will tell you even with "BIS" Gear Kardia is nice for weak auto attack's of the Boss at best and an inconvenience at worst (overheal).
Phlegma is also not an argument because the other healer's have a skill that serves the same purpose. We can go through the whole toolkit and will come to the conclusion: healers are
too similar with a lack of identity and depth at the moment (too many OGCD heals, lack of choice, no synergy with the toolkit, sometimes the job gauge and its purpose are not needed or used because of its lack in balance).

Btw. AST is a better "pure healer" then WHM. I am not sure why so many people behave as if WHM is the only healer with big heals. In fact AST can pump more heals than a WHM. Weird, ohh wait benediction -,-*

And i dont see the point "please play with absolute potatos to have fun as a healer". In my opinion this not an argument, its an insult and tells me to F-off.
