WAR trying out WHM, Looking for advice and answers to some questions.

SCH in 3.0 will now need to drop cleric to use lustrate - so basically stance dancing is more or less equal between the two at max level.

Just pointing out that the change to Lustrate doesn't affect SCHs who were already stance-dancing to the max. The majority of your stacks should be spent on Energy Drain, anyway, and as far as we know, the fairy continues to be unaffected by its master's use of Cleric Stance. Dropping CS to throw a Lustrate (or more likely just Adlo or Physick) isn't a big deal or much of a departure from the current routine. The only thing we can't do now is camp CS while using Lustrate exclusively for direct heals, which wasn't really ideal or necessary, anyway.

With WHM receiving what we believe to be a % heal (Tetragrammaton) and being able to cast a passive Regen field (Asylum), their ease of stance dancing should increase, though. ACC will probably still be a big problem unless they've changed the stat distribution on healer gear without telling us. Crafted ftw, I guess.

Edit: Apparently Tetragrammaton is a potency-based spell, so scratch it off the "cast while in CS" list.

Oh yeah I know that there are scholars that stance dance...there are just a lot of butt hurt cleric stance only scholars that are lamenting the lustrate change. The change will force those scholars to learn the art of stance dancing.
