Please buff WHM

[Exiled_Tonberry]

The expansion just came out and everyone has entry-level ilvls. As gear level increases your heals will get stronger, so this issue will literally correct itself in time. Potency-wise they actually received quite a few increases already.

Could probably stand to revisit the cooldown reduction amounts, though.

The WHM problems have NOTHING to do with potency.

The only healer with an arguably legitimate potency complaint is SCH, who got hit with an Embrace potency nerf on top of the faerie's already poor scaling, benefits from neither flat potency increases nor passive boosts, and as insult upon further injury, spends silly amounts of MP for what used to be its signature mechanic.

I think SE has some idea by now that some of the WHM changes and additions need tweaking, but SCH looks to be the true red-headed stepchild of this patch. I'm officially lobbying for SCH since the feedback on WHM appears at least to have been received.

SCH.

It's really disheartening that SE unapologetically (and seemingly) favoured one healer over the others. They claim that it's all balanced around Level 70... okay, but looking at what we have:



SCH is near useless in dungeons and with the massive MP management disparity I doubt it will see much play in Raids, over even WHM.

WHM has it's own issues but it's mostly around clunky and unintuitive mechanics. Also a lack of utility. I may complain about some of the WHM changes but I do think SCH is basically screwed.

Why did they give AST so much and basically ignore balance between the three classes? Even if you think they balanced the classes individually, just around their own kit, that's complete bs because of the above reasons. AST is a supped up WHM and a SCH on steroids COMBINED.

This actually has me wondering why there isn't a SCH feedback thread like there is for WHM. It'd probably be better at getting attention

I know, but I was responding specifically to the original poster.
