Just a heads up for those playing tank/dps…please dont yell at your moria when she is trying to replenish her heal pool and yell at them for not healing you when all 6 of the enemy team is raming every bullet into ur face…NO amount of healing (not even moria pee) can heal that or keep u alive. So please stop yelling at ur healer when they have gold heals and are healing theor butts off trying to keep u alive. Thanks

I agree but when I die next to a healer doing dps - I’m thinking the player isn’t healing enough (majority of issues around healing).
Pack that up with virtually no shields, overpowered and unbalanced dps (and many dps players unable to play them) you get Overwatch The never ending “rework a hero” game that is never able to “rework a hero” and have it be successful.

And we arent all knowing. Dont know how many times people yell “I was right behind you!” That is nice. My giant healing orb is out front where the rest of the team is. Maybe walk in front of me?

Whining players will always be there in multiplayer games. Trying to change them is a waste of time. It’s best to ignore them without reacting. Mute is your friend. Enjoy the game.

Always someone else’s fault hu?
When I’m healing, I make an out right effort to try and keep track of the entire team’s positions. Even the morons who think they are in a deathmatch by themselves. I let them know, hey, you will not get healed way out there (or way back there) as a hint to join the team.
If a player is behind me, I make an effort to see them. If you are not doing that, then I suspect you are trying to DPS or sole focused on the big tank in front of you (and ignoring the rest of the team).

I play a heal focused moira but thats not to say I wont attack if I need more healing resource or if an enemy is low and I can pick them off, or need to help my team kill one such as a genji, and so many times I have to babysit one of our DPS (who is yelling at the shield tank to hold up a shield that the DPS is NEVER using) and keep them healed just to have them stand there trying to make a career out of being a bullet sponge to all 6 of the enemy team, then yell at me for not being able to heal them through that much damage and then accuse me of only DPSing. Then when I stand in front of them just to show them I’m healing them to my fullest extent and then they yell at me for not taking cover while I heal them. Like, you’re doing… the same thing? Whats worse, recently I’ve had games where, for a vast majority of the first match, I NEVER attacked the enemy because I’ve always had heal resource so I stick to healing only, and I get DPS who join voie chat just to say they have SEEN me doing nothing but DPS all game and not a single heal. Its good to have a teammate who knows every single thing I’m doing at all times in the game better than I do and not play their role to the fullest because they are also playing mine. [Sarcasm]
You always have to remind them that healers are also healing everyone else on the team, cant focus just a single hero to heal. This is a Team game after all, but I guess not to the DPS…

I hate when people abuse me in the text chat for “not healing” and I say “press X then if there is a time I don’t turn around” (cause I’m prob focussing on keeping my tank up)
“I ASKED YOU 5 TIMES IN THE VOICE CHAT”
“I probably didn’t hear you because I have hearing problems, please press X next time”
“sure idiot”

Solution:
- report: abusive chat
- mute
- enjoy the game
It’s pointless to engage in a conversation with people like that. The outcome is unlikely to be positive.

Sounds like a tilt post because you had a bad experience in a game.
Quick tip : To save your healing resources, throw healing balls, not damage balls. This reduces the amount of healing you have to waste.
Another tip : if you SPAM TAP right click on moira, you’ll get healing resource back quicker than if you were to just hold it. You deal less DPS by doing this, but if your goal is to get more healing resource, ya shouldn’t be worried about how much damage per second you’re losing.

Ya i just needed to vent s little. Have to say i throw more heal balls then damage. I only throw damage if my team dosnt need a heal at all really.
Thats a good tip i never tested it before. Dos it really replenish it faster to rapid click it instead hold it down? If so i shall try that
It does replenish faster. You can test it out in practice range
Cool thx for tip (im a pharah main but que times are horable this season so im just trying to get to plat on healer now) i will give it a try…just hope people dont keep callimg me dps moria when i am healimg my brains out lol

DPS main here too, kinda just stopped playing OW consistently due to queue times.
They will haha, thats overwatch for ya
YES!!! Thank you for saying that. I’m a support healer that mainly uses Moira. The majority of games I play I always get Moria isnt healing the team at all ( like 0%). Shes just doing dps for every round. I look at my healing and its gold every time. They ignore my healing orbs and run away from it. Others ask for healing and as I spray them with heals they continue to run away with low health and die by the enemy. If I need to replenish my heals and I dps to restore it they get mad and call me a trash healer. They feel that Moira has an unlimited healing spray like Mercy and unlimited orbs without any cooldown.

I second that, if i play Moira: Im out of spray and Orb is on cooldown, i try to replenish my Heals, but then im DPS’ing.
And it (mostly) comes from the same People who never touched a Support Hero in their life.

I don’t know where you’re going with that… but saying the enemy is doing damage at all isn’t an excuse to not heal. Moiras win when they heal.

Well I’d rather a good dps support than a bad dps main. My 2 cents.

I know when this is the case for me, it’s because that person I’m trying desperately to finish off is good enough to take out the remaining 4 of us (like a reaper or a smurf or someone I know is about to ult). I’d rather save 3 and lose you than die trying to heal you, only to have the rest of the team die to an ult afterwards.
Dude… the amount of times I’m perched waaaay in the back as Ana, scoped in - someone asking for healing
“ana [unscope, look around, scope back in]…ana [unscope look around]…ana I’m right behind you!!” Well wtf are you behind me way back here?! Like honestly, you coulda just walked in front of me while I was scoped in and gotten topped off already jfc!
Now I’ve taken my eyes off the rest of the team, turned completely around to said stubborn teammate, turn back around and the tanks are dead…
