    You cant compare SCH shield to WOW"s disc priest's. To make up for its lack of AoE healing power, the shield must be way stronger. To mid-Catac when I still played, disc priest were borderline OP in 25m and blatantly OP in 10m because it had 2 shields, one produced when its heals critted, stackable, and the another was instant cast leaving a debuff on its target to prevent spamming. And that shield enjoyed almost 90% spell coeff (among the highest instant cast coeff) to boot. On the other hand, SCH shield is halved in power since it hasto share potency with a heal and requires cast time to produce, the effect is almost negligible. No need to visit coil, you can try "pre-shield" on Titan to see how much difference it brings. First hand experience is always better than quoting on "other known SCH in other threads" to defend your argument. One thing I love in this game is that you dont even have to grind gear to play both classes at the same time, so for once the "play as one yourself to see if it is true" actually is valid.

    The only scenario I can think of where succor is equal to medica 2 i when there is constant AoE on raid that medica2 ticks, with its 100 potency and 3s/tick cant cope with, that requires both healers to expend their mana bar. Even so, a WHM can simply Medica 2 then spam medica 1 away.

    Most SCHs that enjoy SCH healing at the moment is telling how awesome their faires are and how they can micro manage them to maximum efficiency. None mentions the miserable AoE shield called Succor. Pre-empitive AoE shielding simply doesnt exist at this state of the game, dont quote on it any more please :\

    Adol is actually decent though.
