    Honestly, my only wish is for them to fix the shield priority system to alleviate this double barrier nuances. Please don't allow weaker shield to overwrite stronger shield under ANY circumstances. I'm not saying they really NEED their shield that badly. It's just annoying to have prep'ed a very solid setup to spread a critical adloquium but then you have that E.Prognosis trigger happy SGE overwriting it with their paper thin barriers.

    Part of me wants to think that they purposely made it this way to ensure the less geared healers won't feel 'useless' when they are paired with better geared players for seeing their shields 100% of time not registering or getting overwritten by their better co-healer. (Yes, excuse my paranoia.)

You should try to make some evidence to prove your so called statistics rather than throwing insults else your point is whack and invalid. The game literally has both showing same potency.

Both have the same Maim & Mend traits so something else is boosting SGE shield Crits more than SCH shield Crits.
    Not in my gameplay. Both still generate around the same amount of shield, varying ever so slightly thanks to low/high rolls.

    The only way for SGE's Crit E.Diag barrier to generate larger shield than Critlo's is from getting a critical cast on top of having Zoe active. Let's compare the two a little bit:
    • To generate thickest shield on SCH: Fey Illumination(1.1), Dissipation(1.2), Protraction(1.1), and Recitation(1.6) stacked together into a single Adlo cast = 1,255.5*2 of shield potency separate into Catalyze and Galvanize portions. While weaker, SCHs have the mean to spread that generated shield, temporarily bolstering eHP, partywide. In addition to having Recitation on their disposal, they can always guarantee that critical bonus should they wish to.
    • Meanwhile as a SGE they have to: Physis II (1.1), Zoe(1.5), & Krasis(1.2) stacked together into a single CRITICAL(1.6) E.Diagnosis cast = 1,710.7*2 of shield potency separated into Eukrasian Diagnosis and Differential Diagnosis portions. In the end although they do come out with more barrier potency on a single target, they do not possess any mean to manipulate said shield. Not even Zoe'd E.Prognosis can surpass SCH's Critlo spread potency. And above all? Goodluck trying to fish for that unreliable critical procs. Besides, Zoe synergies way better for Pneuma usage than anything else in their arsenals in lv90 content.
