Wanna give healing a go, which healer would be more forgiving of me to play? Specifically talking RSS btw, MAYBE 3s but let’s not get ahead of ourselves here

Hpally is really easy and fun.
Seems good with all the immunes, seems like the combo points would be kinda annoying tho (not a fan of combo poitnts)
If that’s not your thing then Hpriest and Pres evoker are really good also. Pres you can get real aggressive with if that is your play style and Hpriest can set up a lot of things on it’s own.
If you want easy, the answer is hands down hpal. Not even close.

mw really easy as well since you dont have to do damage at all you can just focus on healing
hard to die because you can port stun, also some pretty forgiving cooldowns, cocoon + revival (can use while stunned).

holy pally and holy priest easiest. in melee lobby’s pally seems better and in caster lobby’s holy priest feels better.
Holy priest isn’t easy for new players
Mistweaver is 10x easier than hpriest

I wouldn’t say 10x easier, a new player would die pretty fast if people swap them on a Mistweaver where as a priest you a little more tanky
Disagree, having played both. Priest have to tank damage and cycle CDs and jukes. MW can simply escape via several methods.
I can kite a single melee for days on MW, my priest can survive but will ultimately oom or die.
Guess we just have to agree to disagree. As a new player monk I’m pretty sure most of them will forget to set up there port or forget to move it once out of range and thats pretty much all they have. When I say tanky I mean priest literally take 30% less damge then they do and the oom part idk if you talking about disc or holy but holy priest doesn’t really lose to going oom much.
Priest have focused will because they cannot escape. A melee can stick to a priest the entire match if they want to. They cannot stick to a MW, so if I’m being chased by melee I’d rather take 0% of their damage than 70% of it.
Saying a monk forgets to port is like saying a paladin forgets to bop. It’s a core mechanic to the class, and not exactly a hard one to do.
but what if I keep forgetting to reset my port after porting, and then end up porting into the middle of the arena to my death. Sounds difficult

Idk what to tell you man. Ppl ask healers what’s easiest, we tell them hpal and mw, then get nut uh! As response.
I’m not conflating powerful with easy, just in terms of mechanics, MW is pretty easy.

hpal the easiest by far skillcap and floor
hpriest has a really low skillfloor and a moderate skillcap
pres while one of the strongest healers without a doubt is probably the highest skillcap and skillfloor spec in the game across all roles

Yeah I was just mentioning pres because it’s strong but fun and a different play style. Not sure what kind of play style op wanted.
But yeah, hpal super easy
nah def worth bringing up it’s strong

agree with this, and add that-
i picked up mw for a while earlier in df and found it to be the fastest/smoothest spec to get comfortable with / effective at: minimal binds, great oh sh*t buttons, and para/sweep compared to other healer cc i found to be easier to use effectively
but also, hpal is really strong rn and it might be just a little bit more of a time investment to get a much better overall return
Rsham has too many tools to be considered easy (very bind intensive), rdruid is the most global intensive although the play style is simple enough it does take skill to manage hots, hpal is well rounded with great tools, disc is pretty easy to play but not tuned very well atm(I’d argue disc is maybe one of the easiest healers in a meta that it’s good in), holy priest I haven’t played this expansion so no comment, and mistweaver was the easiest healer for me to gain rating with because it kind of reminds me of a resto druid except you don’t die in stuns as easy because of port and don’t need to manage hots nearly as much. Preservation I’ve always found kind of tricky to use properly although other people said it was faceroll on release
