Found a couple of old resources (SB era: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...NnE-zMHa4/edit and ShB era: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...kLDaOmZY8/edit ) and it got me to thinking, we talk a lot about how Healers used to be...but often without concrete, quantifiable data.

So let's have a look at that. See what was lost, what was gained, and what was more or less...the same.

And I don't mean this as an antagonistic thing. I think we should put objective terms and quantifiable measurements (DoT durations converted to casts per minute, etc) down and actually see how things really do shake down.

I suspect what we'll find is WHM and AST are comparable (in DPS kit terms) in EW/ShB to SB, and SCH, of course, losing a lot from SB to ShB/EW.

But let's find out.
