    So, since people are so up in arms about supposedly losing a significant amount of damage if healers were more complex, I wanted to check how much of an impact losing 10% damage from a healer has, so I looked up a 50% SCH log from P9S because the argument is that casual healers may want to tackle the first floor of savage, and 50% is a perfectly average number.

    The dps check of P9S is roughly 64k. A perfectly average SCH currently does about 5600 dps. A 10% reduction in that is 560 dps, losing that 10% is equivalent to 0.875% of the dps check. Why are people so up in arms about this? 0.875% is so insignificant that you can't even pin the blame on the healer without looking like a tool. A 1% difference is even worse, that's 0.175% of the dps check required, that's an absolute non-issue.

    EDIT: Made a mistake, I was looking at old numbers, a perfectly average SCH now outputs about 6000 dps, which brings the total of a 10% loss up to 0.94% of the dps check. That's still less than 1% of the total output required to clear, so I still fail to see what the fuss it about.
