With that being said, WHM in Ultima (Ultimate) has the highest DPS of the three healers but a fair margin, which is where it should be. It's a shame it takes content as hard as Ultima to allow WHM to shine in that capacity.
I would add that SCH is significantly ahead of AST in pDPS at specifically at the high end in most fights for Alphascape.

The only reason WHM manages to pull ahead in Ultimate is that once you force all healers to burn GCDs healing WHM is suddenly more efficient thanks to increased MP efficiency and Cure III. The difference between that and Savage is that in Savage AST and SCH can subsist (sometimes almost entirely) on their oGCDs. That o9s clear linked in another thread has 13 healing GCDs from the SCH, the best WHM clear of the same fight (at least as of a day or so ago) had 27 for comparison.

Otherwise thanks for explaining my viewpoint better than I could Glishain, very well done
