I'm currently being abused (Help)

I que 2v2 arena and its 99% chance of being a dh that trains me, and I die…

I que shuffle I get 2 dhs in the lobby ( also prob a ret!) and I get trained and die!

See a dh in almost every 3v3 game but atleast its a little more balanced.

The fact I can fake a dh kick, spam flash of light and still not even out heal the damage they do is just mind boggling.

Why is hpally the squishiest healer in the game?

Time to reroll Rshaman and Q boomy/dh, buddy.

It’s not hpally being the squishiest, it’s dh being the most broken class. They eat every healer alive by default.

I think it’s a bit of both tbh. Hpal has no real peels for itself and has next to no protection to getting murdered by dh or gripped and blasted by dk.

Freedom is obviously good, but between stubs and uptime of melee in general I think hpal is one of the best kill targets in the game.

Disc has passive big dr and void tendrils/aoe fear around a corner. Hpriest has the same and fly.

Rsham has static/root totem/lasso/knock/burrow and has totems to stabilize when off stun dr.

Rdruid has hots, infinite shifting, root and bash/clone for two separate drs of ccing DHs.

Pres has hover, rescue, and VE to kite as well as renewing blaze and 2 walls.

Mw has port, rolls, tlust, rop.

Hpal has… freedom+horse and hoj XD

100% this. I lost around 300 pts last night just getting back 2 back double dh lobbies. Its literally impossible to prevent them from killing your healer

Every utility i had only made em tunnel my healer harder

Hpal unironically needs magic BOP baseline.

BoP is good into rogue, warrior, and hunter, and it’s REALLY good into them.

For everything else, you have almost nothing. Feels terrible, both as a warrior main and as an hpal player.

i love how dhs literally can avoid every cc under the sun AND get a pala bubble with it

loving how every leather class can get a bubble (cats excluded lmao lolol) but warrior gets a parry

I had similar questions, Bubblebuddy came in to my rescue and I still die to double dh but at least it happens slower.

That “class fantasy” thing really works out. (sarcasm)

Oh don’t get me wrong. I’m in no way saying hpala is good or anything. I just wanted to point out that DH is so broken it doesn’t matter which healer you play. Even as shaman or druid you can’t get rid of them for long since they have multiple ways of dispelling roots themselves. Every time an enemy DH decided to just mindlessly train my healer all i could do was watch in terror how said healer gets eaten alive. Pala being the one dying the fastest obviously.

I thought they could only reverse roots?

Nah, they can also dispell them with Immolation Aura self dispell.

was fighting the number 2 awc EU team playing their NA alts last night (DH ele rdruid)
Was beating them every game but then they figured out i was an hpal and just started chasing me in circles around the map and killing me in 2 minutes with nothing i could do about it. No essence break no prim wave and id still get 70-0d in a fel eruption xd.

I only had 25% vers tho which probably had something to do with it.

my favorite is when they tell you how trash you are in shuffle after they destroy you

Started playing some dh/war with friends. 11/12 losses were to a DH (or ret/war/fw) just running at and killing our healer. Pally just dies to melee, it’s wild.

Honestly this is how I feel as moonkin most of the games. I never actually die to cds; it’s just a random piss stun go and i die 80-0 with mediocre crit RNG. Oh, and i have 41% verse btw.

On the flip side when I play DH im just passively sitting stuns and blurring out where I’d normally have to trinket and bear form or die. I can always trinket aggro and save glimpse to avoid cc so i can stay aggro. It’s wild.

It’s insane to me that dh has passive 15% magic dr, 5% physical dr, and mail armor during immo aura (which is 50-80% uptime depending on build) AND immo aura self dispels. Unreal.

Na a DH can train an hpal in ss 100% of the round (I have 2 paladins in r1 range in ss atm) and they will win the game. If they do it vs any other healer while on my team they lose and I’m just behind. I’m scared of quing my higher Hpals because if I get a double DH lobby which there is a 50% chance of getting ill just tank.

Also facts to this thread post, nerf dh please

Like i said, i wanted in no way say that pala is good. I just wanted to say that DH is so broken that they are able to eat every healer. Some live longer, sure, but they will die eventually too. Hpala is the one dying the fastest though.

Swapped to hpriest. Similar kit. Infinity more tanky in cloth with focused will, protective light working w binding heal, and fade.
