SCH vs WHM

[Sebazy]

I begin the question just how much SCH has gotten over powered, though. Our SCH has begun sticking to Cleric Stance [ON] for about 90% of a Titan EXM fight because all he needs to do is let the fairy heal and lustrate. I heal the tank along with the fairy, keeping the tank topped off, but when big hits come he just lustrates with no need to exit Cleric Stance since it's a % of the Tank's HP.

On the contrary, I think whm are noticeably better for the majority of that trial purely because of the frequency at which those big hits come on. Use cure III/medica II efficiently with a group that can huddle properly and you may as well just swap the sch out for a proper dps. The only point I prefer being on sch is during the adds, if the tank eats a bomb just before the second mountain buster then as whm theres not a huge amount I can do beyond bene or pray, as sch I just lustrate as needed and carry on as if it never happened.

As a WHM especially in T4, I find that I usually get asked to be the one that constant heal the tank that is getting the most damage.

I also did the MT healing as whm when we were learning T4 simply due to us not knowing any better at the time and it just kind of stuck. Roll on a few months down the line with me switching to sch to get a new whm in, I'm still healing the MT and I can't begin to stress how much easier the double dreadnought phase is. As whm it was always hard work requiring both myself and the pld to hoard cool downs and the dps to get that first dreadnought down before we both ran out of steam, on sch those two clockworks might as well be a pair of south shroud squirrels, even with the bugs fed early I'm comfortably out healing the damage coming at that pld, and unlike my whm, I'm not haemorrhaging MP in the process.

Its like Red and Blue. Theyre both colors, but red looks better on some things, and has a different purpose than Blue, as blue looks better on some other things. some people prefer red over blue and vice versa. A red n blue combination make a lovely purple. Whether Blue is a support to Red or the other way around, they need both to make that color.

But please, dont think Red is better than blue.

Thread won, gg!
