WHM doesn't need a buff in terms of abilities but it could use some help in terms of ENM generation.

You'll find the best results in larger group play with a mix of both white mages and scholars, though two of one and none of the other will never make or break a group. Each has some areas in which it excels. When you have one of each those strong points are made stronger while those weak points are largely erased.
I bounce between the two depending on how motivated I feel on a given day. When I want to be really engaged and active I'll log onto a Scholar and micromanage my fairy while stance dancing to add supporting DPS. If it's been a long day and I don't want to have to "work" at it, then I'll flip to white mage & enjoy a more streamlined play style.
They both accomplish the same things -- they simply do it in very different ways.

Why are we talking about this?
Wasn't it established by like week 1 that SCH's were superior at single target heals and WHM's were superior at raid heals? There's a reason why the two synergize so well together....
You need to not think in terms of competition, one being better than the other. We don't have a WAR/PLD situation where the general populous are requesting WHMonry or SCHonry. The two are very balanced and very equal. Just have two very distinct play styles. When playing in concert with eachother, it is amazing.



What? No. WHM doesn't need a buff. What is this...I don't even...

White Mage doesn't need a buff! O.O If we were buffed, tanks would NEVER hold hate!D:
The only thing that WHM needs is for Sacred Shroud to scale based off Piety. And for Cure 3 to be tweaked.
Otherwise, I would say it's perfect as-is.
I concur, regen being enmity-less would be a nice QoL change too, but honestly the classes are pretty balanced currently.
As Delvish said, the situation isn't comparable to WAR/PLD for sure. lol

I think whm and sch compliment each other rather well in full parties. They are not the same role and do not have the same abilities for that reason. They are not suppose to be equal.
