Was on PTR forums for bit hoping for some more feedback, but as the Patch is going live without much QoL given to Pres to make it feel like a good overall healer with its cringe feeling restrictions.
Just a few requests to give QoL to Preservation Healers.
Goal to allow QoL for pugging. Less positioning requirements
Can we change “Nozdormu’s Teachings” for Temporal Anomaly to change Temporal anomaly to also apply Echo but at a x% weaker version and Temporal Anomaly radiate out in a circle around you up to 30 yds vice a straight line in front of you.
Edit: or change it to further buff the shield aspect of TA that now radiates outward and dive deeper into reducing CD’s of your empowers?
Change Verdant embrace to a choice node that swaps VE to a bronze spell (call is something else like ‘Temporal Embrace’ since its no longer green/verdant) that now shoots a future/past image of yourself to the target. It will no longer benefit from buff “lush growth” in the class tree that buffs green spells.
Allow move casting of empowered abilities while Hovering.
Allow use of Source of Magic on self in non raid groups or allow it to be used on a tank for a DR instead of healing done?
Remake its so ALL essence abilities apply echo. Emerald Blossom is VERY lackluster and could use a niche. A new way to apply AOE echo’s outside of TA?
Not being able to cast empowered while hovering is just extremely confusing to me. It’s unnecessary and counters the class design.
They could make "empower"ing spells more like modifying, or variants, of the spell. Spiritbloom levels could do less healing but hit more targets, same as upheaval. That way, it could be balanced so that you could cast on the move. The extra time spent on the cast just modifies it to be AOE I guess.
Welcome back to my threads where your first line is always a insult to which you make FALSE statements? What part of this did you read is “OP” and what part of this shows I don’t play it? WHY would I make a post about something I haven’t been trying to play? ZERO QoL…stop trying with me.
Where did I say it couldn’t. It has zero QoL for NEW players. NEW players is what this spec needs or else you’ll forever be at 3% and or less representative in most content.
Fauxstrasza is sub human piece of trash and a contrarian troll. Dont even dignify it with a reply.
Exactly. The mobility “argument” is factually wrong by default because hunters exist as they do. The only way Evoker limitations can be fair is if they gain something meaningful for it compared to ranged classes with great mobility and no range penalty.
No, my motivation is to help provide feedback so PEOPLE spitting wild takes that just gatekeep crap gameplay interactions.
The idea behind QoL isn’t new. The spec is trash in pug environments. It takes x times the effort to accomplish the same of other healers. There’s a reason the specs popularity outside of times of just being “OP” the spec dies the next tier it isn’t tuned the same. It needs QoL.
Instead of posting something is OP that I stated explain. I 'm giving examples that vocal people have stressed are pain point of this spec through other means of communication.
The spell still costs essence. Its CD is based on essence generation through TB/recharge rate it doesn’t have to be a 1 for 1 applicaion of echos per player hit. I stated a “x” or unknown amount but allows a second way to apply echos in AOE outside of TA…The spell EB isn’t even played in most content now.
Stating “you didn’t think this through” is you having zero feed back and you just trolling every thread you post on. Its not cute.
The spec isn’t hard. The QoL of it is just BAD. There’s to many interactions in this spec to make 1 button feel impactful. That plus lack of QoL just turns most people from specs like this.
In what way and what niche/pain point is it giving an alternative to echo going to fill? Why add more to the spec before giving the current specs playstyle more thought with QoL then branch out from there to replace other dead talents/abilities?
Reduction to empowers is already in both hero trees? You really think more ways is needed? EB needs more power and predictability. Applying Echo could provide predictability on at least your target and provide ways to drop TA and play new EB builds no?
Nozdormu’s teachings feels bad if not worse than before because of this. Its why I threw out a suggestion that can also provide QoL to the spec.
Aiming is the Problem though. Its the biggest problem in this game…So many specs hate it. Its amplified as a healer because your doing 3x the work that that of a DPS. Healing + DPS + utility control. Adding a 4th aspect of having to AIM everything when no one likes playing with this spec into its game play is why the spec is drowning.
