Against tough solo monsters (if that situation is actually possible in 5e...it really hasn't been for...many levels) my most effective role would really be a little control along with buffing, debuffing and healing. Against multiple opponents (i.e. pretty much every encounter) I'm fairly certain I have both the highest sustained damage output and highest nova (AoE) in our group, at least since the wizard dropped. Along with spiritual weapon, spirit guardians and sacred flame for high sustained damage over time, I can hit those half-maximized destructive waves for 48 average damage (friendly) to every enemy within 30 feet of me (DC 19 for half!). I have at-will no-concentration flight outside now, which is most of the time in our campaign. I dropped my first mass heal last week, though I wasn't able to use all 700 points of healing.I guess the only reason not to play one is...you'd rather play something else?</blockquote>
