I salute you. I have tried and tried numerous times to get into healing and I’m just not sure if it’s the right role for me. I’m beginning to think instead of playing what my group needs to play what I wanna play.
I won’t have to worry about people giving me hell if they die in a random. I mean I’m sure this post might be pointless to some but for the one’s that have been keeping with healing from the start… You have my thanks.
tbh tanking and healing are those roles where you either learn to grow a thick skin or you quit. I’ve been healing for about 7 years and nowadays instead of worrying, I just do my best to heal and if they still die, I drop them a res and we move on.
I used to tank for awhile and I feel like that was less stress on me than healing. Had a DH tank last night running through the Blood Furnace who would just not stop and of course he died several times and it was always my fault.
I’d rather I think just put on music and wait my 30+ minutes or wait til my friends sign on.
Uh… that’s how it should be? If you aren’t into healing don’t do it, play what you enjoy. What was the purpose of this post? 
This happens so much nowadays, it’s like the tank is rushing for an appointment or something lol. Shield, Flash Heal and HW Serenity (this is the name of the instant big heal with a 1 min CD right? I forgot) are your friends.
If you are not enjoying healing though, better not to force yourself tbh.
Healing is the easiest role in the game.
Lol. Tell me you never healed without telling me you never healed. What is the hardest role? I’m curious now.
Don’t take opinions on easy roles by the unga bunga class.
Yea I’ve healed. I got KSM on this last season.
Healing is the easiest role in the game.
So you never healed? Nice. Healing while leveling doesn’t count.
The amount of bad players carried by being healers is staggering.
I know, everyone wants to think their class/spec/role is hard, but the reality is that healing is easy AF.
I’m unable to follow that particular brand of dumb logic.
Every role in this game is easy af. It’s a class breakdown that determines ease of use. If we say Holy Priest, then yeah I say EZ mode.
The easiest role in the game is Tanking, but that’s a truth GD isn’t ready for.
Especially healing. Healing is the easiest role in the game.
Funny way to spell tanking.
You should be able to, you play a class where you smack your head on the keyboard and hope for the best.
Can have KSM all you want my dude. It’s clear you didn’t actually heal any of it.
Raid tanking is easy, I’ll grant you that.
Raid healing is easier. M+ healing is definitely easier. I haven’t done any pvp recently so I can’t speak to that, but I bet it’s the easiest role there as well.
You can look and see the runs I did and the role I played. I healed. It’s easy. It’s the easiest role in the game.
Tanking in PvP is super situational, and really depends on the comp you’re going with. Outliers exist like when Prot warrior was just tearing faces off for a hot minute there.
Tanking in M+ and Raid has become brain dead by design as Blizzard has done the most to try to bring people into the role to fill this weird illusion of a tank shortage. The hardest part is learning your routes and then CD placements. I usually do it drunk, but as a Guardian/BM monk my experience may vary.
Healing is just DPS with extra demands, imho.
I agree that this is how healing should be played but it’s not the way it generally is played.
I actually rolled healer last season to try and understand why a friend was struggling. It was because she’d be facing random directions planted casting only healing spells and refusing to contribute to the run outside of that.
Once I got going on healing, it became super evident how many bad players are attracted to to the role. Most healers I’ve played with are just like she was.
Bad and carried.
