What the heck Blizzard devs thinking??
If you’re having 50% damage reduction then do a 50% healing reduction as well!
How the heck can you kill anyone that has 100% healing in pvp?
This proves Blizzard has no clue on this game and Im out, not playing this garbage of a game!

Use mortal strike. Or viper sting.

How can you justify 100% healing while damage is reduced 50%?
Are you one of dumb devs that implemented this garbage?

Fear, silence, stun, MS, Viper Sting, and interrupts are all pretty good against healers.
I agree not adjusting healing was dumb but cutting in it half to match damage is just as dumb. Why even change anything at that point?
Too late people are leaving this game for good. Im one of them.

Literally nobody asked.
You’d have a bigger impact if you just left in silence. Instead you chose to Karen your way out.

Easy. Its called mana management and knockback.
Healers should always do more healing than damage because in defensive positions you are cornered into healing vs dealing dmg and it costs mana. Plus knockback prevents from free casting. Most healers die in pvp and first to be targeted. Then you put additional things like CC, viper sting, heal reduction, and all these things go against you as well. Healing sucks. No one would heal if it were equal to damage because there would be no point.
Best comment the forums has seen in weeks. Hahaha
No one cares that you are throwing a tantrum and quitting. This is one of the best changes this entire season.
You have to target swap and interrupt.
For example pressure (stun, interrupt) a druid while watching their hots. When their hots are getting close to expiring on a target, you CC the healer and kill your target. Vice versa… it requires a bit of feel and also teaching your lizard brain to think without thinking. Eventually you will start seeing the opportunities more clearly—a healer letting folks get too low before going into a desperate cast timer for example.
After PvPing for almost 20 years, me and my main PvP partner don’t even communicate. The problem I saw with this change is that not everyone—especially in classic PvP—is me and my mate. A flat damage reduction is really bad for peeps who don’t PvP. It just makes folks live longer so we can kill them. 
I see clumps of fighting people… and it is like a house of cards. Pull the right one and they all fall, but that ain’t fun for the person building that house of cards.
They need to decide what they are trying to do. Make this fun for everyone or fun for the folks who are used to 30 minute 3 v 3 fights. Some of us are used to resilient PvP

People don’t want to learn how to PvP honestly…they got used to the overblown damage 2 shot that SOD offered. The posts you see are just a result of people being lazy and wanting everything easy.

I’ve decided the only fix is to do a self imposed 100% game time reduction. Blizzard is done

Imagine being so fragile that you quit as soon as you have to actually PvP tp PvP.

It feels funny and don’t get me wrong… I am being intentionally obtuse… blizzard needs to increase damage 1000% and the average person will have a blast.
They don’t want to PvP
They just want to show off their new pve toys by blowing up human target dummies. When the dummies fight back people get bummed out.
Blizzard needs to decide what they want out of sod
The peeps problem with the one shot meta is that they are not the ones one shotting
The one shot meta should never have been in the game. If you decrease healing, you might as well not have any healers in PVP. With the way it is, healers can actually heal through damage and it is possible to 2 v 1 more players.
Leave damage nerf in place or continue with one shot meta and most healers will play a dps spec or not bother with pvp.

Dude…
You love deleting people. We all do. It is absolutely hilarious. We just don’t like getting deleted.
And healers? This is sod. In sod healers are basically like this sherpas on Everest. They carry our gear up and down that mountain 2000 times a year so some folks like us can post our screenshots from the top on instagram.
They are not supposed to have fun. This is their job! 
You get to have fun and act recklessly—they get to carry your broken body down the slope.
Truth is you folks don’t know what you want. Me too. It is a bummer. I probably just want to run naked through a forest and alls they give me are these buttons to press. Jerks
It’s just lazy changes with 0 effort

Okay. Unsubscribing is the only true option you have. .
Yeah they should tone it down to 40% dr and a healing reduction of 15-20% - I think it would balance it out
