A (Probably Terrible) Idea to Help SCH class identity

[QooEr]

You healer do be rewarding ,that doesnt have to heal checks. Can you hear yourself? Thats how healer being rewarding by keeping your friends alive

...what???

I think he’s saying that the healer role in of itself is rewarding to play by keeping everyone alive? Again, I’m not defending the guy, but he does have a point:

Not saying that fflogs is evil, just saying that it can easily disorient ppl from their first goal which is to kill the boss

Whether you are at the best of the best or just at average skill level, the goal is always to clear the encounter. If tossing out a few extra Healing GCDs could potentially save a run and help clear it, then it’s not wasted GCDs. I don’t completely agree with the guy, but this point is something people oft forget as a Healer.

The cost of using a Healing Aetherflow over Energy Drain is pretty big for DPS. If they could somehow bring a solution that lowers that opportunity cost (like how Misery is a 75% potency refund), it’d go a long way to making Sch feel a lot more interesting to play and optimise.
