WHM needs either a DPS buff, or utility

[Risvertasashi]

Incredibly strong sustaining and bursting heals. Very good personal DPS, insane MP management, the ability to Raise people for free (can even Raise two for free with Swifcast and Presence of mind plus decent Spell Speed. But please Buff WHM and please give us more utility than being able to Raise people for nothing. K mate

Right, because there's not some other healer with even stronger heals and the strongest, longest lasting DPS buff in the game...

Atrologian does not have stronger heals than White Mage, at all, also does not have near the same DPS. It has one dot and a weaker spam move. WHM have to very strong dots, assize and a strong filler. Balance needs a nerf, and that's all.

AST's overall healing potential is actually higher than WHMs if you look at the kits in tandem. However, AST's output is limited by their GCDs compared to the massive multitude of oGCD options WHM has thus allowing WHM to have a higher overall throughput.

WHMs have better burst potential
ASTs have better overall potential
