Besides, I've already said in a previous post that if we're gonna go this route, then every job should get hallowed ground, and instead of being a cooldown it should be a stance that you toggle. There, now nobody's better than others. Easy.
    Can you share what content a shield healer is soloing? They don't have the HP pool and built-in mitigation to withstand an onslaught. They might be able to run in circles and spam heal themselves for a while but then where is the dps? At some point they will not be able to keep up with the healing on themselves or live through certain tankbusters. So...what current content is being solo'd by a Scholar or a Sage?

    Dungeons, mainly, though some trials are also doable. Go do it for yourself. If you're a skilled healer, you'll be able to do it just fine. Because you are a skilled healer, yes?

    Which dungeons? Which trials? Since you have seen this "plenty of times" - what are your examples of trials and dungeons healers can solo?

    I personally have never seen a healer solo a level 90 trial (or any class when it comes to an actual trial), and never have seen a healer solo a boss in a dungeon. For fun I can go try some trash pack and see how that turns out. Definitely never heard stories of people being held hostage to healers soloing bosses for 15 minutes while the team watches, if it's even possible as you say.
