I think Rdruid has the best heals post dampening because of the hots. Seems like they can keep people alive longer than all the other healers when the dampening is insane. What has helped me this season so far is going with a aggressive damage build on my healer instead of going full heals. Helps to do some damage to be able to finish off games. I was losing to many games because of dampening and not doing any damage. The dampening is so insane that it makes healing useless at some point in the game anyways.

This is a great idea
The more you nerf CCs the higher damage gets.
Pick one.
I completely disagree. I love healing right now. I refused to heal in the past because because the games were 15+ mins long. Now games are much faster and I feel that when I contribute to kills or CC that it is impactful. Feels really good. Melee need more tuning but it feels so much better than in the past. This is the first xpac I actually enjoy healing in.
theres definitely a lot of cc right now. i dont necessarily think thats a bad thing. i played from cata-wod and recently came back and i remember there was a lot of cc in mop. about the amount that there is now. i think its fine and makes it more important for dps to peel for their healers (using cc) which adds a higher skill cap (i think thats the right term) to the game. i play rated arenas as a warrior with storm bolt and shockwave setup (dont @me) and I always keep a cc available to peel dps off my healer. the current cc also means players have to be more skillful with how they use their defensives and cc breaking trinket. i think the only acceptable solution to this cc meta would be for bliz to decrease the cooldown of the cc trinket from 2 mins to 1.5 mins. but i think even that would be too easy. other than that i personally think its time for healers to start pushing for peels from their dps.
EDIT: i think dampening should be taken out of the game. that would help the complaint in the op post and i think dampening just neuters pvp gameplay
And yet itâs not enough
a DRUID complaing about CCs? are you serious? please tell me more as u lock me out with cyclone for 11 secs
I thought all the healers did quit, hence the healer shortageâŠ
I am still having the issue of winning 5/6 and only getting +5 rating. Meanwhile, I look at other players that win like 2 or 3 and get +150 or more.

More healers for RSS please!! get them Qs faster!
Healing is big fun in 2v2 and 3v3, solo shuffle is just being wolf thrown.
Yeah Iâm on the verge of quitting healing altogether or change main to DPS and play healer as alt only and do only 3s and VERY RARELY 2sâŠ
Solo shuffle can go * itself and itâs a dog poop content for any healer. I recommend ALL healers not play this garbo unless youâre at least 2.2k so you get to play with better players maybe.
Anything below 2.2k is worse than playing Random BG on Horde side.
Although more and more Iâm thinking about taking a break from WoW already and play some real PvP games like LOL. Canât wait for RIOT new MMO and itâs PvP.

WoWâs skill curve is super low. All ppl do now days is blow their cdâs off the bat. The game is trash. Devs need to get rid of this burst meta. Put War back into Warcraft. At least they are getting rid of rapid fire. Thatâs a start I guess.

Dog, you canât really have an opinion if you rarely play rated content. No offense. I play disc priest as well in rated and it doesnât feel good. Iâve talked to others who play the class as well and seems like they are in the same boat. But, props to you for enjoying it in whatever content you please.
yeah im on the verge of quitting too. im an MIT graduate with an IQ of 221 and a degree in player psychology and esports. never have i ever felt so stressed to heal other players in solo shuffle. it really makes me rethink my life priorities. i am 1423 in solo shuffle healing but due to every dps intellectual disadvantage i am stuck at my current rating.
time to quit because my superiority complex is never wrong.
My dad works for active blizzion Iâll have you know.
But on a real not. I went up about 100points last nightmare. Yay me 
Actually, I can.
ALL legit healers should quit kinda, just take a break leaving only the Boosting Healers, easier for Blizz to identify and BAN them in the coming ban wave.
If you think melee cleaves are terrifying, you should see what casters are capable of, my dude.
Can you even lose rating until 1.5k KEK. Its not dps issue its probably you who is s***.
