Compared to the other two healers, who both now have AOE Regen, which after the lack of identity as a result of 2.55 traits being removed, seemed to be its final defining feature.

Don't get me wrong, AST really needed these buffs to become viable and more accessible as a class; however, in doing this, I believe that AST has the potential to rise to the popularity and maybe overshadow SCH given the sheer amount of raid utility that only it can provide.

Compared to WHM, which doesn't have any utility at all.

Maybe I'm ignorant, but I'm just finding less and less reasons to stay with my main, given that SCH and AST are now far more useful in endgame (hello Aspected Helios, Adloquium).

The only things WHM has to offer is its AOE regen (which was matched by Galvanize and Aspected Helios), and because of its new accessibility, I'm not sure there's a reason for people to keep playing WHM when there are far more loaded kits in other healing classes.
