The expansion is coming soon and with all the discussions we have gone through, maybe everyone have taken a stance now.

So I would like to hear about of what do you think will happen for every healer.
What will be the general feeling, advantages, disadvantages about them ?
What will be the dominant healer role and the dominant healers duo ?
Let's see if our predictions will be correct.


For me, I think SCH will have too many (powerful) tools for manage every situation which will allow him to rule the healer role. I think some will still be upset by the simplification of dps part (and being incredibly boring in dungeon and solo).
People will start thinking about solo heal or even bringing two SCH in party.

AST will be too weak overall and Noct stance will not be bring while you have the opportuniy to take SCH. The new card system will be liked by some and hated by others. New visual skills will be liked. The Celestial Intersection, Earthly Star and Neutral Sect will be the only very good main actions of the job, and it could be enough coupled with a SCH.

WHM will be played a lot for the mana security and strong healing recovery because of the apprehension of the start of a new expansion (meaning possibly changes in healing requirement, mechanics, etc). People will enjoy it a lot in dungeons and against adds. Temperance effect/visual and other new visual skills will be appreciated.
The lack of free mobility, raid buff and Aoe shields will be still a big disadvantage compared to others.

So concerning the duo of healers, I think the general trend (in savage) will be 65% WHM/SCH, 30% AST/SCH and 5% WHM/AST.
