Since I do not play healer, I’m gonna drop some good feedback I received from healers. Most seem to believe the 30 conquest is very underwhelming, but it is nice that there’s attention being paid. Not to mention needing to 3-3 for actual conquest rather than credit for any wins:
No amount of gold is sufficient. You should be suggesting/considering something that transfers to other characters like honor/conquest BoA items or straight up BoA gear tokens. This would enable healing in RSS/other arena to be used as a means to gear another character and/or would give regular healers an option to gear up an alt they could use to detox after frustrating matches.
This remains a bandaid, however, and the wound can’t be closed by compensation. Healers need more agency in arena. D…
I think more healers would que if 3-3 gained you some rating instead of 0. I hear the argument “if you’re going 50/50 you are where you belong”. Well okay then… if you 50/50 your way to 2700 is that where you belong?
I’d be okay with a bigger negative trade off for going 2-4 to equalize the gains made from a neutral 3-3 but at least people will understand why they didn’t move or they moved down from a 2-4. Going nowhere after a 3-3 when you’re puckering your cheeks sweating your butt off for 2…

It’s harder for healers to climb the ladder and get rewards.
Currently, in NA, there are 121 players above 2400 in RSS. Out of those 121 players, only 3 are healers.

Healers are in a pseudo-1v1 duel. They’re about the same rating, so they’re likely to go 3-3.
