This cry of SCH being too good is a bit ridiculous. SCH received many adjustments throughout 4.x because some of them were too unreasonable. Remembered the succor and adlo costing tooooo much to cast? They had to adjust that and aetherflow so SCH can sustain mp. Before the change, SCH was too annoying to play constantly oom. SCH is in fine place right now. WHM and AST are the ones being too weak. As far as this direction of boss damage continues, it only emphasize how important shield healer is. Because of that, it's obvious that raw healing is showing it's weakness by the increased difficulty of keeping up with the constant big raid wide damage. You can notice the regen from medica II and A.Helios is starting to become not enough for the party to tank the following raid wide if there's no shield healer. Raw healers have to heal extra more.

I hate this direction, but this is not SCH's fault. Just because they gave shit to WHM and bone to AST does't mean SCH should be degraded. New skills in SB do nothing as well. That fairy gauge has almost no real usage in harder content. Not to mention the new skills of all three healers barely even help with healing. (exo maybe)

They either have to buff potency of raw healing or adjust their damage formula, otherwise SCH is here to stay.
