    WHM myself, I started out in 1.0 as a Conjurer, got to about level 28 before I couldn't take anymore of the awful game, came back for ARR, and loved healing on my WHM. I actually had Regen, a damage absorber, and my option of single target heals and AE heals.

    Then I tried Arcanist/Scholar, mostly because it was new and I've always liked pet classes. The healing was a tad misleading moving up through the content. I very rarely had to heal, except maybe boss fights in most dungeons, but soon after 50 that changed quite a bit. While I wouldn't say it was more difficult then a WHM healing, actually some parts were easier, I would say that more work was involved in mastering the SCH's potential (from just my perspective). I had to constantly remind myself I had a partner in healing, and that I could use them for much more then just spot healing.

    All said and done though, I still prefer the WHM. I know how awesome SCH's are, as I raid with a kick ass one who knows her class inside and out, but personally for me, I just feel more comfortable on my WHM. Although if I had started out as an Arcanist/SCH first, I may have a different outlook.
