That doesn’t really matter in solo shuffle, though. It’s healer against healer. Unless you mean it’s not fun to play even if you’re winning.
I mean, you can post it until your fingers fall off, it doesn’t change the fact it’s not working. If you’re referring to retail, maybe it’s fixed, I don’t know, I’m not getting on it until the 15th, but I can assure you it’s not working on beta.
Yea even if I win it’s because someone on my team blew up someone else in 0.5 seconds rather than the other way around and losing. Either way no healer is winning games based on mana or avoiding CC or trading well.
I duno. In games where everyone has decent gear it basically comes down to shutting down the enemy healer while your team mongos something. I honestly don’t think you’re going to be able to expect much else out of a random comp game type where each team gets 10 seconds to call strat between matches.
business idea for solo q
allow healers to scorpion their dps back to them no matter where they are on the map

I’d rather be able to make enemy players invulnerable to my team’s damage. Biggest thing that pisses me off about solo shuffle is when we have the game won but the 2 DPS are trying to solo enemy players instead of capitalizing off my CC and focusing something. Lol

My experience with solo shuffle has been almost completely free of toxicity. The random queues on the other hand, were full of people ready to blame anyone but themselves. The fact that people can turn around and potentially beat you the next match tends to help attitudes I think.
There are definitely stuff that can take you fully to zero in a couple seconds. It’s hard for a new person to know whether it’s their fault or not. I could see how that would be really discouraging for them.

Yep, if you’re playing a melee in any form of arena all you have to do is just roll your face across the keyboard with cooldowns rolling and there isn’t enough healing in the world that’ll keep you up.
Nah just mix in trip dps vs trip dps
This ain’t a sport, it’s just entertainment

You would heal for that? I heal now and I think that sucks.
It sucks in shuffle because of there’s a healer imbalance, the DPS mail it in. 3 wins min.

Yes? Fast queues are enough so that’s just icing on the cake.
I mean, I don’t have a problem healing right now, but apparently there isn’t enough interest in the community to support the people that want to DPS.

I need people who are making these claims to at least say they heal in PVP on a regular basis. Quick PVP queues as a healer is the norm; it’s not an incentive.

Should I be playing more? I’m a fairly casual healer.

Faster queues, more gold/mats from boxes, more conquest may work in the short-term. What happens when they cap out or simply just not materialistic?
The only way is to ensure it is not frustrating (at least) to play a healer. Yeah, It is a tall order. But that is what our beloved healers deserve.
BS like RMP dominance over multiple seasons, ret burst in S1, arms utility in S1, out of control warlock one shots in S2/S3 shouldn’t reoccur. If it does happen, said nonsense needs to be fixed in a timely manner without effing over the nerfed party.

Sure, it can be a fine way to learn if you are new to the spec but if you know what you’re doing its just 3s but way more frustrating.
Got really tilted last night and didn’t want to heal anymore when i got q’d in with a 26k Health bm hunter. He would camo at start then open before anyone else.
There really should be some sort of ilvl requirement. like maybe what ever bast honor gear ilvl is. Not sure but something. Can’t remember exactly but think his ilvl was 184.Mid 180s.
I was planning to play a holy priest in pvp until the devs decided priests had excessive button bloat and pruned the one ability I really wanted as a holy priest in pvp… Shadow Mend. It was a great back up heal when countered out of holy schools. I was planning to do some dps and use shadow mend as a backup to heal a bit. Of all the things to prune they chose Shadow Mend? Seriously?
So instead of holy, I stuck with Shadow for my priest.
Disc is currently the most overtuned healer due to conduits stacking and a few shield talents making it insane. All your heals are instant and mind games can do upwards for 70k damage.
If WWs didnt 1 tap and dh/warlock damage wasnt so HUGE, healing would actually be in a really good place atm which is crazy.
