Which HEALER do you prefer?

[Bigpurpleharness]

For throughput both are fine. But for the love of god WHM pull a lot of threat. I don't know what it is. I feel like half the WHM's I run with decide to cast Medica II on the pull just to troll me. On Titan, I will have threat then bam, after first tumults / stomp WHM pulls w/ 2-3 the aggro of anyone else in the party. It's ridiculous. What is up with that anyway?

SCHs get two MP pools and two enmity pools, WHM doesn't. That's about the simplest (Though not the most accurate) way I could put it.

Cure I has a threat multiplier of 0.5x
Cure II and II have a threat multiplier slightly higher.
Regen seems to have no threat multiplier. Every tick of healing generates 100% threat.

Theres a very noticeable difference in threat between a WHM that never uses regen vs. a WHM that keeps regen up on the tank throughout the entire fight. It may be their most cost efficient heal, but its also their highest threat producing move... even more than Medica I.

Edit: Oh, I just realized why Medica II generates so much aggro... it applies a regen effect, doesn't it?

prefer both whm and sch haven't had any problems yet doing Stone Vigil via Duty finder will upload clip soon for it.

[Delorean]

I don't really have a preference

but yes whm aggro can be annoying

[Archaegeo]

Problem is a lot of healers do not know that overhealing generates extra agro

[Remn]

i prefer both,
but if i tanking caster boss (similar 1st boss AK) then i prefer WHM for the Adv. Protect

After doing end-game, I would say WHM hands down. When Titan hits me for 3.5k, SCH just can't bring me up fast enough for me to feel comfortable. SCH is nice to have as a back-up healer, but WHM seems to be a better choice when you start getting to the hard hitters.

Right now (level 42), skill level being taken out of the equation, I like SCH hands down. Love that shield, love the buffs, love the flexibility they provide. That being said, I've done no 8-mans, no raids, etc. I've not had aggro problems in the slightest on PLD with either class, although if the WHM is crappy, I could see them pulling aggro with overheals, as I see a lot of Cure I > Cure II > Cure I > Cure II etc etc etc even when I am NOT getting stomped.

I would imagine WHM is the superior healer end-game with their bigger potency single target heals.

Whichever one I can get on skype to yell at, sincerely.

A big reason WHM's generate so much hate over SCH is increased potency, more overall healing, and most importantly, they do not split hate with a pet, whereas a scholar does. I'm pretty sure that'll get nerfed though. xD
