I got every healer to 1800..Here's what I found

hybrid with chi-ji and RWK or bust

ride on the edge of not knowing whether that kick will heal like a vivify or a renewing mist tick

I tried it and was not a fan. The CJL heal is busted

it’s actually pretty meh imo
easiest thing to interrupt as well

I wouldnt run that even in BGs

Wdym you have aura mastery for 5 seconds on every TFT and casting CJL doesn’t consume your charges so you can spam your Insta EVs afterwards

It’s like a 15 second buff as well so you can hold it for a bit after tft until you’re in the clear. It’s about the same risk as channeling soothing id guess

This is just factually untrue, but I don’t disagree with your sentiment that people who were 1800 3 weeks ago are all 2.1-2.2 now

Think it’s pretty well known that pres is worse at low ratings than high ratings because your positioning is so determined by your teammates and kill windows are frequently messed up. See e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkkMQqAs8ZA

I don’t know how to explain, Neo. You need to take the red pill.
CJL is only good for epic BGs.

You’re giving up your top heal every match, for like, MAYBE 8 mil damage from wind kick…Doesn’t work for me anyway. I can play so bad and still win bc of insane healing with the CJL build

you dont give up healing for it

Yes you do

Jadefire Teachings- After casting jadefire Stomp or Thunder Focus Tea, Ancient Teachings transfers an additional 160% damage to healing for 15 seconds.

Jade Empowerment - Casting Thunder Focus Tea increases your next CJL damage by 800 % and causes it to chain to 4 additional enemies

The 2 talents above are my top heal every match. If you don’t take those talents you are not making that up with Rushing Wind Kick

alright bro

oops accidentally didnt reply

following up, check this out:

if you still think it’s not worth it then alright, you do you

the key here is that Gust of Mists procs from the kick, and it does good healing against zoo classes like Windwalker (bet you didnt expect this example did you)

Also, Yu’lon does effectively nothing. Chi-ji is an actual healing cooldown

Ok but it’s a 10 second cd unless you use your tft on it…and then you can’t insta EV. Just doesn’t play as smooth as CJL, but does have nice dam. I understand why lontar uses it because r1 players will cc all of his CJLs, but where I’m playing it’s clearly the better option

Edit: Just saw it was a video of a guy Queueing BM hunter Dev Evoker :nauseated_face: What is a good name for this cleave?

Happy to report that after 8 skirms I finally won as healer - watch out world.

Think I oh-for-five’d on MW and felt insanely useless fish out of water, swapped to Disc and after 2 games of getting just one partner (L’s obv) I bagged max Conq baby. Not saying anything about either of the two specs, entirely too little experience to begin to have an even remotely informed opinion, but Disc immediately just felt more comfortable. Super low on mastery, as it was geared for shadow, but it was fun even when losing - lasted over 2 minutes alone against a couple BMs and another Disc. Gonna finish out the skirm weekly as Disc then try and string together at least 5 0-6s in Shuffle lmao.

First day of healing (skirms only). Tack on 5 losses for when I started out on MW for a final record of 2-17 goddam I’m terrible. Seems like a lot of pain and suffering for 125 Conquest lmao. Pretty good learning experience though, more than anything I learned from a healer’s perspective firsthand how utterly maddening it is to have to chase dps around the map and constantly get put in terrible spots and I’ll definitely be more aware of that when dps. Had to queue the last game as shadow to finish the weekly, didn’t know if I had two more L’s in me to get the 1,000 honor.

Now do it as dps and rate the easiest/hardest.

Honestly, I think everyone should try healer at some point or another, it helps a TON with learning positioning and damage patterns of how you can kill/live vs other classes.

I love mw. But im a pvp novice and when i get the balls to attempt to cc the other healer i get wrecked lol. Any advice?

Tutorial Cleave.

Sorey, I can’t wait in queues that long I’m an adult with a job

Yeah i do. If you’re a novice, then you’re facing novices at your rating too. You can probably find the most success by just maintaining good positioning and prevent yourself from being cc’d with chi torpedo and port. You will heal big numbers by being a MW(great throughput)

Also…this sounds really strange…but get a weakaura to track when you have an instant vivify. It refreshes evey 10 seconds continually, no matter when you last used it, instead of a 10 second cd.

Ex. At :07 seconds into an arena i use my instant vivify, instead of it refreshing at :17 seconds like what you’d expect, it will refresh at :10. It’s just a non stop refreshing at 10 seconds no matter what point in time you use it. This means you can get 2 back2back instant vivify out pretty frequently

There’s plenty of good mw streamers like meepmonk, bankmw, mysticall as well

Good luck :+1:

Did they ever do this for worgen?
