Normal-mode AoE spell usage is the subject matter. As to avoid derailing, what I said can be observed just by anyone. You can even feel it yourself if you play SCH or AST in dungeons vs playing WHM or SGE in a dungeon. It's so much more effective, therefore stronger. When a job is disproportionately used in content, it generally means that it is the better pick. Warriors have ~120% play rate in dungeons. #Machinists

I'll acknowledge that the numbers could just be the playerbase on the healers, however that should be reflected across all content(give or take) and it does not. This leads me to believe, and even experience myself, that healer AoE scenarios vary in effectiveness.
