Being kicked from a T4 group for not DPSing as a SCH is just really bad >>;

However, this doesn't mean there are not plenty of opportunities to DPS in T4 though, depending on your group composition, equipment, and strategy. My group pre-2.2 usually had two i8x tanks and given the gearing, was fairly straight forward to DPS (and either I get very lucky or the ACC cap is lower in T4 because of the "gauntlet of trash", if you will). We usually burn Dread in P5 so no double dread strategy here, and I'm usually healing the OT.

P1 - As you see tanks run in to get mobs, have Cleric's Stance ready, Shadow Flare the middle run in and Miasma II, DoT chain, Bane four targets, reapply Miasma II, get out of Cleric's Stance and heal. Use an Energy Drain or two to keep MP up as you generally have Aetherflow back up between each phase.
P2 - Each healer takes a tank, can generally solo heal as a Fairy just fine with added support here and there. DoT up your tanks Soldier and let it fly, add heals as needed.
P3 - Will generally need to heal spam due to 4x Bug Dreadnaught.
P4 - Same as P1, can focus on Rooks first, will probably need to stance dance more often
P5 - My group usually burned Dread in this, so I was able to DPS Dread and fresh soldier (in that order) to help out.
P6 - Will generally need to spam heals as my OT is now tanking 4-6 mobs at once (depending on how many bugs he picks up). Will need to off heal party on occasion as the Rook eats the physical DPS I'm usually with, lol. Once the adds are thinned on the OT, can help focus DPS on Dread as this Dread is no where near as potent as T4

Again, mileage may vary depending on strategy, ilvl, and group composition.

Scholars that don't use dots and bane deserve to be kicked. The entire reason you have a fairy to assist you is to let you do other things besides heal. If you as a scholar do nothing but heal then you're a terrible one.

I'm not normally this blunt, but you're a terrible healer if you think this. Your ability to DPS as a healer is directly proportional to how skilled / geared your group is. If you need to heal 24/7 because the party's skill / gear is low for the situation, then so be it.

With that said, if it's clear all your doing is letting your fairy heal while you pose and look pretty, yes, you are a terrible SCH.
