So my local group has just begun a gestalt campaign set in a weird mix of current day and fantasy world. Our DM gave us 25 point buy and generally free reign he had only a single class he would not allow being the OG summoner most of the rest of the group agreed. So after speaking with a few of the other players during char gen I found one guy playing a psionic character and was interested soon after discovering the Vitalist and I thought a Vitalist Life Oracle would be super fun seeing as I enjoy being a heal bot as some would put it.
BUT then I was told the Vitalist is too good at healing. But every where else I can find seems to say that healing is not great personally fine by me I don't mind being a less than great character mechanically But according to him I would be able to keep up with the damage that enemies/traps/ect. can put out and the LV 15 class feature where I can be very far away to heal the limit only being the plane that the party is on.
So I suppose two part question is there any way to match the healing a Vitalist can do in combat any other combos of classes? And Is there any real way the Vitalist is as broken as he seems to believe cause it seems to me that the only thing the class does is make in battle healing efficient and effective?
