Where is this WHM is underpowered thing coming from? Are you people just parroting the sentiment from before release? WHM is in a good place. It outshines AST in healing output and dps. The only problem that people that actually understand the meta will point out is the passive nature of lillies being boring and hard to count on in the scripted nature of ffxiv raids, and how lackluster the 70 ability is. As a job it is totally great.

The ONLY reason AST gets a guaranteed slot in the meta is the fact that balance is 20% instead of 10%. That's the only thing making them Op right now.

Please don't start spouting nonsense when you have absolutely no context for it.

And at the risk of sounding like an elitist d-bag, the only place any of this matters is in progression raiding. No one cares what you bring to dungeons or ex primals except derpy meta-monkeys that don't know what they're talking about.
