SCH AoE Damage Gutted!

[IttyBitty]

I like being responsible for my job, not outsourcing it to someone else.

Contributing DPS is a part of your job. It's a part of everybody's job. Dedicated DPS classes just carry the most burden for it.

You mean like your fairy?

You mean like your fairy?

I don't think a fairy fires machine gun bullets or drops electric nukes. Though that's pretty interesting! I think I'll stick to the gun, though, the fairy doesn't have enough booty to warrant attention.

Gods, I hope they change Bane back, or at least tweak it so it won't feel like an utter waste of Aetherflow using it. I'm willing to get my hands on it first, to complain with some proof/evidence that it sucks. But on paper, Bane sucks. Without that and Blizz2, boy are dungeons going to be dull... :|

[Fernosaur]

The Bane nerf has me really upset right now.

Bio and Bio II being merged isn't that big of an issue once we get Broil II, since there is only a 10 potency difference between the two. Still... I'm raging over Bane orz

[Deceptus]

Because apparently me doing decent dps and making dungeon runs go faster was a bad thing. . .

Thanks for making healers less fun SE.

The problem is with how boring it all is. You have two dots and then it's Broil spam while the fairy heals, and a lustrate if you need to top off. This is sleep-inducing levels of dull, even worse than it was during ARR. You can't even play around with shadowflare repositioning anymore! At least with four dots I was able to spare a thought to their differing timers, but now I fully expect it to be button-mash spam.

This does not sound like an engaging gameplay, and making DPS dull is not how you're supposed to empower SCHs to heal.

I'm wondering the further aoe nerfs are an attempt by SE to further stem the tide of super pulls /speed running

[Judge_Xero]

A little sad TBH.

Compared to WHM, SCH is complete trash for AOE damage. Probably close to 1/3 of what WHM can do. Pair that with significantly lower single target damage as well I can see why SCH got the CRT buff.

Oh well I guess it's WHM time to shine. Probably about due.

Let's be fair better they gut dps then the entire role of your job /comforts whms
