I play a SCH and as you would expect, healers are high on everyone's list. You can't just sit in the back in heal constantly. I toss in miasma's (for gravity and -healing) or use Blizzard 2 to bind people who have come after you. You really have to learn how to use all of the skills are your disposal, but it really requires a lot of team work. You can be the best healer in the world, but if you are rushed and none of your DPS or tanks are protecting you, you will fall pretty quickly.Â
All and all I rate it a 3.5/5, but its still A LOT of fun and a nice mix up from the day to day mindless beast slaying.
I do love it when I get to party with a BLM who takes care of me by sleeping those who attack me. That way I can keep the Adloquium shield on myself and the BLM to protect both of us from interrupts.
I also appreciate the tanks and dps who stun my attackers (I agree with Tlamila: hang around the tank so they can see you). PvP seems to really require party members to protect each other -- maybe even more than offense.
Oh, and to counter sleep, Purify (the PvP ability) is like warm vanilla cake fresh from the oven with whipped cream and strawberries -- can't do without it.Â
Edit:
And dueling only in housing areas? Sorta makes me think of those usable-only-in-inns emotes.
