Aura Blast, is it fair? (Feast)

[zuzu-bq]

Just want to know if fellow Feast players think its fair SCH being the only healer to not have a healing-based PvP skill as their Job unique.

Aura blast used to be good in lvl 50 frontline when you could just bait ppl and push them off the edge but in feast a 180sec aoe push back is a joke especialy since we only have blizz 2 for cc

Well beside it helps you to get like 1 cast off and only CC a sch has is blizzard 2 its not unfair at all. I mean whm for example has fluid aura/repose/heavy(stone) + as pvp skill sacred prism which basically let you easily keep your team alive for 30sec.

I think they meant unfair towards the scholars themselves.

They need to give the fairy a unique pvp skill.

Sch already has more skills because of the pet, I think they are also the strongest healer in soloq. Between Aldo and 9x lustrate, no other healer can fight against burst as well as sch.

I'sau has the same opinion. But I think that when the ranged DPS bursts the fairy at a correct timing, SCH gets completly inutilized for a few seconds.

100% this.
They may lack CC but they also are far more capable of carrying mistakes that dps make like LoSing their healer.

Used with equal skill I actually don't think any healer is better than the others, the only difference is what you are facing (although I could be totally wrong because Feast is such a joke it's actually hard to tell what matches would feel like if everyone on both sides was good). In my experience SCH does well against heavy burst like BRD/MCH but falls appart against SMN for example.
The problem isn't so much that Aura Blast sucks, but that it, along with Retrogradation are lackluster compared to Sacred Prism. (Although I'll take Retro over Aura Blast any day). But for all the complaints about Sacred Prism being OP, I still feel WHM needs it because unlike the other 2 they only have 2 instant heals, both of which are on long cooldowns. It would probably be better to boost/change Retro and Aura Blast rather than to nerf Prism.

eso useful skills is rouse, fey wind and fey illumination. Combine them all together for a strong aoe regen. Fey covenant is weak. Eso could use a cc ability like a aoe slow.
