I'm sick of it.

[SenzorialBoundries]

I'm literally sick of people telling me over and over and over in game how much my class suck (SCH) compared to whm and how i should just delete it and make a whm bcs a whm is soooooo much better at anything. I just had a wod run and 2 bards were bashing SCH over and over , telling me how much they suck at anything, they said sch is for lazy people that dont want to do mana management. They said all sch can do is do a bit of dps while WHM heals everybody. I am literally sick of it this is not the first time but it happens pretty often.

And no trust me its not me or my gear , i heal normal i guess 1.5k physick 1k fairy and 1.2k adlo. But no one bats an eye when they see those BIG whm heals of 4k crits.

I like scholar so much because its mechanically more intensive than any other class, but its even worth it anymore? i did only t1-t9, is it even worth it playing scholar anymore? since i cant compete with those big bad boys White mages.

SCH is fine. You were probably just being trolled, and by your reaction on this thread, I presume, is exactly why.

There are videos of SCH solo healing turn 13, which has the largest damage output of all existing fights currently. They are anything but weak.

If people are telling you that your SCH sucks, then it's your playstyle that needs work, not the job.

You're being trolled badly. Usually it's people trying to claim that WHM is the disadvantaged one (hint: both Jobs are very good at what they do).

[Mercutial]

Yeah... if anything, I see a slight bias toward SCH over WHM.

SCH is literally required to survive gigaflares in T13. Don't listen to trolls.

O.o i'm a dps job only type and i even know that sch team up with a whm are the best team. I'm sure two whm could work in raids but at the end of the day what sch bring to the table whm just does not have.

Not necessarily. As long as everyone has >6.5k HP (thanks to Vit melded accessories and some respecs) and Virus + Dragon Kick is on Bahamut for each Gigaflare, you can survive with just a WHM.

That being said, SCH makes survival MUCH easier which is why many people argue it's the overall better job between the two.

No reason to sacrifice dps for vit. SCH can easily make the acc cap and stay in cleric for most of the fight.

Agreed, but in that direction we start getting into efficiency versus ability. My point was simply to say that it is possible to do it with WHM. I won't disagree with you though that WHM is lacking in certain departments and needs to get some love with 3.0. As it currently stands, both jobs can solo-heal all content in the game, but because SCH can do it while retaining important mitigation, special party buffs, enhanced debuffs, and aid to overall DPS increase (either through self or fairy), SCH is definitely the superior "job" of the two, even with its lack of pure healing output (simply because there really is no fight in FFXIV that absolutely 100% requires the healing output of a WHM, which causes the discrepancy).
