It’s a bit imbalanced, specially when your entire group is dps but the enemy is packed with healers. It’s horrible trying to play as a healer in pvp so I avoid it.
Buuuuuuut, introduce call to arms and I’d be more willing to do it. Perhaps that’s what BGs need?
you wouldn’t of by chance been horde earlier in a ssvtm match? our side alliance had enough heals to push into hordes town tank the guards and just chill.
I call tank! Wait, am I still taking 50% increased damage? Pass.

I think we had like 7 or 8 healers, you weren’t dying lol
Nah, I find that “pvp” to be too chaotic and unfun. Specially when a DK grips you into the entire raid.
can you imagine that queue time

Blizzard tried this back in like Cata. It went badly for DPS and was reversed.
You will be waiting for a long time for a healer to queue up then .
We had one today where the Horde had 5 healers and we had none. We managed to win anyway because I was able to tie up 4 healers and 3 dps at waterworks while we held mines and lighthouse.
I was gonna say… I thought this was already in the game.
At max level it is. They broke whatever balancing mechanism they were using at low levels, and now it’s not unusual to have a team that’s half or more healers.
When talking about role queues, players mean like dungeons, not just attempting to balance healers like now.
I see no difference. Either it’s entirely random, or they make an effort to balance healers, or they don’t. Those are the only 3 possibilities.
Well that sucks. I’m a support player in games I play with the exception being WoW and it’s always dps this dps that and how things can’t be implemented because the insane amount of people that want to play dps is too damn high.
Always queueing in a group of 5 with 2 healers. It’s mostly easy wins from there
Only one I lost so far when the other team was full of 1900-2100 players and our other 5 pugs got stomped.

The system does attempt to match healers, but if one side is queuing more than the other it will begin the match with uneven teams. When I’m playing a healer I’m much less likely to see another healer than if I queue on a dps.
I like the randomness of RBG’s. I might get away with group Q’s though…
