My response to the Medica and SS never being needed.u know whats funny i tend to forget to use thin air on whm and im fine because i dont spam medica like a fool
3 ED's from dissipation give more than enough mp to compensate resummining your fairy
sacred soil IS NOT NEEDED EVER. use fey covenant if youre so desperate for mitigation
Saw this response few hours ago at work, had no words.
Hours later, still don't. So here's a pic.

im talking about playing with good groups here. healers aren't carry machines. even in pre echo a12s and a11s i rarely ever needed to spam aoe healing except that one time i was solo healing a12s (unless you count doing 2 or 3 casts "spam")
All groups are not bastions of excellence either. We're not claiming that SCH should be able to carry groups of players that fail every mechanic, we're talking about the relative power of SCH compared to other healing roles. And more specifically, the mana efficiency to HPS of SCH compared to those other roles.
i do agree that scholar cant aoe heal spam and could probably use a buff in its healing or mp costs, but so far aoe heal spam hasnt been needed most of the times (and besides, you have a cohealer. if a fight is seriously so heal intensive that you need to desperately aoe heal spam its not like youre going to be solo healing it or dual sch). as for mp efficiency, indom and lustrate "cost" 1200 mp (that aetherflow stack could be used on an energy drain, which gives 1200 mp). so you have scholar with an instant aoe heal for 1200 mp. helios costs 1440 and medica 1680. you also get deployment tactics aka 300 potency aoe "heal" for 1800mp or 900 potency if the adlo crits. whispering dawn is a completely free medica 2 (and you can rouse it so it does 40% more every single time).All groups are not bastions of excellence either. We're not claiming that SCH should be able to carry groups of players that fail every mechanic, we're talking about the relative power of SCH compared to other healing roles. And more specifically, the mana efficiency to HPS of SCH compared to those other roles.
for single target healing theres also the fairy (nerfed, granted, but its still completely free 250 potency healing every 3 seconds. over a minute thats 5000 potency per minute which is way higher than essential dignity or tetragramaton) and fey union, a 480 potency REGEN on a single target. and adlo might cost 600 mp more than a lustrate, but since it can crit and double its shield effectiveness its probably a fair tradeoff
the cost for succor though... i dont know why its so high
