Scholar is a horribly designed job and shows zero thought goes into healer design

[Semirhage]

I'm going to post a hot take...WHM is the best designed healer atm. Lilies are GCDs and thus break up the 1 monotony, and you get a reward for actively using them in the form of big damage. WHM's kit always feels relevant, compared to SCH where quite a few moves can be completely forgotten due to how unneeded they are in most content. It's sad that I use WHM more than SCH these days, and I've mained SCH as a healer since 2.0.

I *completely* disagree with this take, but you know I do.

WHM is the dark hole of horrid healer design that dragged the whole role into the mess it's in right now. Lilies are the nadir of choice-free, safe, braincell-b-gone gauge design. WHM's design encourages farting out whatever you want, whenever, with no punishments for getting anything "wrong". Childproofing is the platonic ideal at the summit of the design, and the current state of the healer role is the result of that.

Where are the c h o i c e s. Your reward for playing efficiently is Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare Glare. Hideous. Soporific. Most boring healer design template I've ever seen curse a class paradigm.
