Why I play WHM over SGE:
• I love Cane and wand (I use wand in BSF for less clipping lol). I love flowery motifs as well.
• More mobile than SGE after 6.1 change outside Icarus.

Why I play SCH over SGE:
• Books >>>>> Space lazor. (I know, I’m biased)
• Butterfly motifs.
• Healing & buffs AoE that are not centered on myself while can also be manipulated at will.
• My OG main, and will always be.
• And reasons you’ve stated.

Why I play AST over SGE:
• The most support’ish of all healers.
• Keeps me awake with its APM.

Why not SGE?
• Gundam/Mecha-style of aesthetic has never clicked with me. It’s a major turn off for me.
• A copy paste of SCH-identity.
• Bonus point: notably less effective emergency recovery options compared to SCH but why worry about it when you can prevent it.
