1) IMO it's the ancient spells scrolls that push the Fury several steps ahead to "Best Healer". Comparing our standard spell lines we're all reasonably close. Furies getting two direct heals on seperate timers to add to their arsenal? It's very biased compared to our 15 min recast tricks. Sanctuary is really nice but I'd trade it in a second for a direct heal on a seperate timer. But why should I have to?
2) When you look at a Furies healing utilities you realize it's pathetic for people to tell Templar's their utility is healing. So is other priests. They get other stuff in addition to their utility healing but we aren't allowed to talk about that. I'm actually quite mad I didn't look at other priests utility before this. I took some peoples word for it that a Templar's utility was healing. Other priests get plenty of healing utility also -- it isn't a Templar thing.
3) We all know DPS is ridiculous but we aren't allowed to talk about that either.
SO... shoot down one of those 3 points based on some little trick you can think of that looks uber enough to make up for it. You're still left with the other 2.
It isn't balanced at all. Not even close.
Now don't get the idea I'm defending Furies because I'm not. Your first arguement is difficult to look at over the whole class because you are only talking the last 16 % of the game. You can't really base an entire classes balance over the end game. I'm not saying you are wrong about your assesment though.
Your second arguement, I'd love to see a little more work done defining where our healing utlitity lies because I'll admit thats hard to gauge. If any work is going to be done with Templars thats probably where it needs to be done.
DPS arguement we can talk about all day but like they (not me) stated our utlitiy should lie in healing not in DPS. Maybe I'm a pessimist but I can't seeing that getting very far.
