WHM vs. SCH -- What is the basic difference.

[DarkLordCthulhu]

In my group, sch never uses stoneskin. Why wouldn't the whm just use it for the big incoming attacks like Ravensbeak? Other than that and some other situations (like adds incoming etc and you need to keep aggro down), you don't need a stoneskin. Plus whm ss is greater by 8pp. The sch shouldn't waste mp on a ss; save it for an adlo reapply if anything.

Thats why I said in most fights. I agree with you that WHM should be using SS to mitigate those big attacks like Death Sentence and what now. You also stated that in your group the WHM is responsible for SS so Im assuming you run with a static. I pug alot and outside of the pre fights buffs i rarely see WHM use stone skin during the fight. Not even when they know mountain buster is coming.

The only fight ive seen WHM keeping up stone skin is Levi ex cause of the debuff received when healing the ot. I'll keep using that trial as an example since ive been farming so much, and have yet to see a mirror T.T
Both healers know that we will be getting hit my whirlpool soon. WHM wont take the time/mana cost to SS. However I (SCH) can SS both healers while still healing with Eos. I also SS healers/MT and that Derp DPS thats cant dodge while Levi is doing dives. If need be can energy drain + aetherflow and boom, back to full MP.

So yea SS should be WHM for those hard hitting boss moves cause of that extra 8% mitigation. I was just saying SCH can be more liberal with our SS use. Cause of personal experience i guess i feel it should be the SCH responsibility since i dont see WHM doing it.
