Arrogant WHMS

[NRhodes]

Plain and simple, it comes down to sheer player skill.

I've sat on these forums and watched all the ranting and crying about SCH being "under powered" or "not impressive". People spend too much time looking at numbers that pop up instead of reading tooltips.

Honestly, ignorance is the reason why people cry about anything in this game.

Both classes are in my mind working as intended and all these puppy dog tears need to stop. Soak them up and re-roll to DPS if you can't learn to Google or search these forums for a guide to help you better understand what you need to do.

*The first paragraph does not reflect my actual views of the whm job and for the record i love whm's, just tired of hearing stuff like "Get a real healer, like a whm".

I am a WHM, and I always prefer to have SCH as my healing partner. And also, I always thought that SCH is artful in their healing. Honestly and frankly? I don't think that most SCH gets the "art" of healing in their own class and style. Healing in WHM is boring, SCH is a lot more interesting I would say

WHM's blow. They are just a bad class. They cant mitigate damage, they cant increase their healing potential on the fly and when things get mobile they have a hard time healing. In is betalmost every situation a SCH ter. Most whms dont know how to use their skills.

Now how did you feel reading that? Pretty angry? Thats what sch's feel like every time a whm or any other player makes offhand comments about how inferior they think scholars are. Learn to appreciate what the other class can do that you cant. Does that scholar really suck? Well its not the job its the player. /rant

The reading comprehension levels in this thread are not even believable. Has to be below high school level. And i bet some of those people are allowed to vote.

I personally love having a SCH with me in 8 mans or in 4 mans healing if im tanking or dps.... Yes WHM is more a pure heal healer, but it gets crazy when in some fights you have to move and adjust to not get killed... SCH is way better for that, your pet is OP, the shields, buffs and absorbs that a SCH puts out is amazing... I have seen SCH solo heal Titan(WHM kept dying) and Garuda... Anyone who says SCH is not a great healer is either dumb or maybe has just had bad luck with bad SCH's...

i'm a sch healer and often when i have a whm partner i feel like i'm solo healing. is there a difference in the whm healng dynamic that cause this?

[Ralemont]

White mages are jealous of things scholar can do, and scholars are jealous of things white mages can do. The healing balance is almost perfect at this point. Take one of each and profit.

read the asterisk good friend...

in other news, when my group was setting up for coil, since I only had WHM and the other healer had both he asked whether I preferred SCH or WHM as a partner so I said SCH (it also happens to be his main and I know he's really good with it) later we found out he couldn't have gone as WHM anyways see as he didn't have relic yet :3

my post is "Wrong"? did you even read it? Guess i was wrong whms do blow according to this person. seen at least two posts where people countered points in my first paragraph meaning they didnt read the whole thing. reading comprehension at a whole new level, im very impressed.

Yes your post is wrong because not all whm are arrogant, and not everyone think that whm are the best. You read my post all "wrong". I wasn't trying to get all detailed on how some people are just rude and think they know it all. Shouldn't let those people get to you.

If someone told me to stop playing whm because the job sucks, I wouldn't care because I find it fun. It's about what I enjoy, not what they think I should do.

WHM can solo heal Titan as well. It all boils down to if the healer can stay out of the fire or not. SCH have shields and regens with their heals but their heals aren't as hard hitting either. They get the benefit of more aoe heals with the disadvantage of less healing potency. WHM gets more direct healing potential with higher healing potency but less aoe and no shields on heals. SCH is the party healer and WHM is the tank healer and burst healer. Each have their roles and both do them well. There is a reason that coil groups want one of each in every run they do.
