Every affix is a healer affix

I think the wrong people complain in these threads.

The game is in the most locked in meta state its been in. No group forms without an augmentation evoker, a tank, and a healer (mostly bear and h pally). That leaves 40% of the group composition left for DPS, and if you are a class that cannot deal with the affixes in this season, you’re not getting an invite.

We should see more DPS warrior complaints about these affixes. Some rogue, hunter, warlock… It’s bad enough that the meta is so locked in, it should be worse that you can’t deal with the new affixes and your time finding groups will be worse than mine and I’m a mistweaver main

welcome to meters, until they make fights and runs not timed and about execution healers will constantly be asked to pick up things. Reason for healers to be ranked by passive dps… instead of how well they can heal its about how well they do everything else over keeping the group alive

you can take anything up and through 20 M+. the issue is the community ONLY wanting meta and demanding you play it or you don’t get the invite. blizzard can fix some things but its on the community to go by the meta or just go by what they get

So, if the healer is in charge of cleaning up messes why would they put more pressure on healers via more aggressive healing checks, unavoidable damage, etc?

They increased healing difficulty this season but the same healer clean up detail is still there. You are being the doctor, nurse, babysitter, and janitor all at the same time.

so healers have something to do if players play well.

As we have always been.

Because healers kept complaining about having to do damage throughout Shadowlands and other expansions. Quite literally, healers kept pitching the nonsense of “being a healer means I shouldn’t have to do damage”. And Blizzard said “Well you shouldn’t be standing there doing nothing neither.” To which, guess what, they’re right. So now this is the alternative. Now you’re healing way more often.

Yuh I’m simply re-rolling Frost DK (not this DK she’sfor forums lol) I love healing and will probably keep doing it casually for Guild groups but like at this point feel like that Peon in the Silverpine Quest getting asked to carry more then what is reasonable :dracthyr_shrug:

Like I should be able to have fun as a healer regardless of what Healer I’m playing and who’s in my group and how skilled they are that is not the case right now for multiple reasons like one example as Prevoker some fights like Magmatusk I’m put at a Disadvantage like ranged DPS running around the room out of my range screwing up positioning its so frustrating and there’s NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT

and how much fun do you have wiping because healer sucks? I’d envision that would be the problem you encounter on your dk.

Or maybe healing is so easy, that you can just leave it up to other people cause it’s impossible to fail.

This season has a ton of that leeway. Only thing that is iffy is certain single target insta hits. Things like first boss of freehold.

This season is some of the best healing has been since bfa id say.
