    Healer Idea: Plague Doctor

    People have been begging for a darker healer. How about a plague doctor?

    They could wield a scent device in one hand, filled with incense, and some sort of another weapon in the other hand. Perhaps a single dagger, or a sigil.

    Would use herbs, aromatherapy, and focus on cleansing the disease and impurities out of their allies.

    For combat, they would be ruthless in their poisons, and concoctions that would be breathed in the very air, and coated onto their tools.

    There wouldn’t be potion mixing like chemist. It would be more of a ritualistic healer.

    What do you mean? SCH is an angel-themed healer. Just look at Seraph and Seraphism. ଘ(੭ˊᵕˋ)੭

    Meh. Personally, I'm kinda tired of the plague doctor archetype. It's pretty common and not particularly interesting beyond the mask.

What was once a magical world peeled away to reveal a sterile room of four walls. No imagination, no challenge, only accessibility for the sake of it. I didn't feel welcomed, I felt betrayed.
    I'll give healer a try up until level 100. If I do not like it, I'm off the role, entirely.

    I clicked on this thread hoping it was a jab at CBU3 for completely gutting the SCH job fantasy. Poor thing has been dismantled so badly people don't even realize we used to have a plague doctor.

    And it was a level 40 action. The horror doing Brayflox normal runs without it.

    To make matters worse, the tank is a PLD.
