Too much work for an MMO lol. I'll just stick to working on my story ideas for an anime/manga.

I might rework Shaman and give some of the abilities I had in mind for that class and hand them to the Kannushi, like the shield that mitigates damage. I was thinking Shaman would be a poor choice with the class having low healing strength compared to the other two choices by themselves. If I swap the low heal + shielding effect to Kannushi it would work better, as I plan on having that class being able to summon a spirit AI (fox possibly) that remains in battle and is programmed to heal along side the player. It's the way the Scholar class works in FFXIV essentially, and it works so well to make up for the lack of healing strength.

Shaman, I'm thinking of going with some some average strength healing skills, and go with a few life drain skills like you suggested earlier. I'm thinking of a skill with a long-ish cool down that can be used to siphon hp away from the target, but only if they're being haunted by spirits (essentially the attacks I listed down for the class in the page) and make it one of those "more spirits being used, the higher the damage and drain (1 spirit=15% drain, 2 spirits= 20% drain, 3 spirits=25% drain).
