The removal of dot management and Expedient seeming like the most interesting of the 90 abilities caused me to pick it up again, there's nothing else like it in the game and people love you for it in the final boss of Aglaia during orbs.
You would guess wrong! Yoshida explicitly said they did it because "SCHs DPS too much leaving the WHM to heal" when the reality was the opposite. And SCH is still the second least popular healer, imagine that. If you enjoy 1 button spam so much, you can still enjoy that and ignore the DoTs. Everyone wins!
Also it's weird that SCH is somehow your favorite healer when it has Energy Drain and is the only healer left that doesn't actually want to heal, but I'm sure you have some take like "delete Energy Drain" so whatever.
