what? have you ever actually palyed Healer? see the reactions you get if you let anyone die in pugs. Who are you people? do any of you actually play the game?

Bro you push crusader strike even without that up, as it generates holy power, and lowers the cooldown on judgment and holy shock.

If people die, they release and the run continues on as normal.

If I die in Dawnbreaker, the tank and the group finishes off the boss as if nothing happened.

credit where credit is due… OP managed to rage bait and get a lot of comments on his/her post

I also want to play this version of WOW where healers don’t get abused if anyone dies in the group.

Healers really don’t get abused. It’s a forum myth that is actually rare to encounter in game.

Oh, sorry, my bad. Once every 3-5 GCDs you push a spender (usually always the same one too).

My bad bro. Hpal has FOUR buttons.

What are you spending your holy power on? You didn’t mention any holy power spenders in your oversimplification of the rotation.

Why would you want healing to be harder.

So it’s more fun.

What Faux said. Too easy it’s boring (this is where we’re at right now). Too hard and people wouldn’t wanna heal. But there’s a happy middle place you could find.

Like right now I’m enjoying fire mage. It’s not hard in the least, but it’s not drool inducing like playing DH or BM Hunter either.

I don’t think BM is really that easy idk. It has some complexity to it

That also has to do with content being gated. I’m sure m+10 will be a challenge week 1. m+0 might be fun enough too.

Yeah, but I found it easy even doing real content during DF. Hero talents massively increased throughput on every healer I’ve tried, so I expect healing to be easier than DF (which was already overly easy), unless content is tuned / designed differently.

Although I don’t agree with you that easy healing is unfun, there should be an option for a spec that’s more challenging.

What is fun about easy healing? your contributions do not matter.

So OP complains about Hpally having a 3 button rotation… then admits to swapping to Fire mage… which by the way OP describes rotation can be simplified to fireball, fireblast, and pyroblast… OP is a troll trying to rage bait healers. Move along all.

This is all I want. The OPTION to build a talent page that makes my spec harder to play, more demanding, or more RNG.

Frostfire Bolt AKTYUALLY, Pyroblast, Fire Blast, Scorch, Phoenix Flame.

And even with just those 5 buttons, every single one of them has some sort of RNG attached.

  • Frostfire Bolt can randomly become free / instant / auto crit any time I cast any other spell, which empowers my next Fire Blast and Phoenix Flame to do extra things.
  • Pyroblast is a free, instant cast every two crits in a row, Hyperthermia will randomly trigger making my next 8 seconds of gameplay a Pryoblast gatling gun, and every 15(?) hot streaks (which is like every ~8 seconds), I hardcast Pyroblast to auto activate Combustion which also triggers Frostfire Bolt’s effect.
  • Scorch will randomly become instant / auto crit / 300% damage
  • Fire Blast is off the GCD and I use it reactively, Fire Blast randomly triggers Living Bomb, and because of a talent, Fire Blast will randomly instantly gain a charge.
  • Phoenix Flames has a talent that makes it refund the next two casts at random intervals because my casting cadence is not constant.

So my gameplay is NEVER set in stone. I’m constantly reacting to what my procs are doing – even just counting those 5 buttons. And I constantly use all 5 of those buttons.
