I’m like 1500 healing in solo and it seems like I get cc’ed so I’ll trinket and then I get like 20seconds of chain cccafter that and there is nothing I can do about it even LOSing then I get flamed because I let a team mate die. Idk how to avoid all of the copious amounts off cc😳

Polymorphs / yeeted hunter traps you can shadow word death to break them. You want to hold trinket as long as possible and let your partners burn their cds first. Keep in mind you can pain supp while stunned, and pre-emptive bubble on the kill target if you think you’re about to be tagged with one. If it’s spammable CC it might pay to pillar hump to avoid as much of it as you can.

9/10 its positioning and not seeing the enemies position. You can reliably predict what players will do if you just watch them. i.e. A hunter Disorient shots, likely the next thing is frozen trap. Mage Blink, Frost Nova. Likely next is poly. etc

positioning, also everything is not within a healer’s control sometimes its up to your teammates to save you/themselves

A lot of times you are trinketing at the wrong time (your teammates just used their defensive and will be ok or you are stunned before the follow up cc and have the opportunity to pain supp or the enemy team doesn’t have a lot of damage rolling or your teammates are in a good position where it is easy to avoid damage or you can hold trinket and come out of cc and life swap them when they barely survive)
The best way to know when to trinket is to track your teams defensive cooldowns with omnicd and track enemy offensive cds with omnibar/weakauras while also being aware of where everyone is standing on the map
