    It's going to be a bit before those kind of posts start popping up. Although I did see one on tenacity and it seemed pretty garbage.

    Healer stat weights are mostly opinion, since we don't need to rely too much on our secondary stats for healing. And the last set of stat weights we had assumed you did 100% damage and 0% healing, which isn't very accurate for a healing job. :P

    In my opinion, you want to stack crit on SCH for adlo and Piety on WHM for Assize. Not sure what AST benefits the best from.

    Well basically it will make the choice easier, since the sub stats are garbage for healing itself.
    I can see crit now on WHM's cause of procs, but hell... im rearly healing with cure1/2 in lakshmi/susanoo ex

    I am a bit confused, another healer told me, that if you put Direct Hit on your equip, it also influences your heals, not really sure about it, since the tooltip of Direct Hit, says only for magic and physical attacks

    Could they mean critical hit? Last I checked/heard direct hit was only a dps stat, virtually useless on healers?

    I would say WHM can meld everything but piety. Surely the more piety you have the more mana you get back with Assize, but WHM is literally swimming in mana even without going for piety. They dont really need more. I can see piety being a thing more for ASTs (Not sure about Scholar, havent looked at them that much so far).

    Ast used to have the best management now I'm actually having to give myself ewers lol. Sch has it really bad right now though. Their mp costs are way up making crit adlo pretty unbearable to fish for and they cut aetherflow in half if I'm not mistaken. My group planned for the off heals to go sch for that sweet sweet crit buff, but at it's current state I think sch will be pretty stressful to raid with. Eos isn't able to keep up anymore either. My heart goes out to sch mains lol

    They did, but they also have lucid dreaming now. SCH MP recovery now looks a lot like WHM: Lucid every 2 minutes, and a 10% recovery ability every minute with procs that can reduce the CD.

    Eos can still solo heal dungeons if you get a geared enough tank. I know SCH was nerfed but what everyone seems to forget... SCH was best-in-class in a lot of areas too.

    The main thing is AoE DPS, but... for healing SCH is still OK. Any of the healers will struggle with huge pull + low end gear.

    As a WHM, I find myself needing Peity right now in EX content, since groups are still taking lots of unnecessary damage.

    Crit is always nice. Det is likely fairly good for 4.0, but will fall off rapidly with content. Spell Speed is up in the air. I'm currently PIE / CRIT / DET, but will likely swap DET for SpS. I find 320 gear really slow.
