healers are pretty up to pace with how fast damage is rn.

but why would you bother making this thread without any discussion

Says the warlock…so tell me how you can gauge that healers are up to pace when you aren’t a healer. Healers need a huge tweek or it will be 100% dps in bg’s

I’ve multi classed healers and DPS for about 9 years.
Still doing it.

Telling the truth is what i do. fact is ddps is out of whack versus heals and heals are underwhelming currently

I don’t dispute the fact that damage is extremely up and down right now but dealing with it falls to everyboy, even DPS.

If you have 7 DPS standing around not stopping a convoke that kills somebody then that’s not a healer issue; it’s a DPS with brains switched off issue.

Not understanding how you are changing the debate to incompetence being the key driver of the current imbalance. Having played pvp since its inception on wow I can tell you that this expansion has a serious imbalance it has to address otherwise people will switch off healers and it will simply be dps versus dps. Paladins, Rogues and hunters are literally 1 shotting people. Do you remember the days of rogue stun lock killing … it is very close to that in this expansion. Blizzard tend to wait 6 to 9 months before instituting any sort of change so that inaction will simply kill off all heals in pvp in the meantime. When dps are out healing healers … hello Houston … we have a problem.

Issue with this expansion is the very high rate of damage combined with DPS’ usual inability to interrupt. It is hard on healers.

But you probably should make much more of a point in your opening post than ‘why do you even bother’. It’s nothing of substance.

I think the inference is fairly clear that blizzard has wrecked pvp for healing classes in my opening post. I have then gone on to expalin myself in detail if you continue reading my points so your point is redundant

Wow. So we gotta read minds now when a forum post pops up? “I’m not gonna tell you what I mean cause you should know what I mean”.

Get over yourself bro.

Says the pally. No issues with your class at moment. Top heals, top dps, top kills. Triple threat right there.

complete liesssss, mw is horrible. I’ve never seen a mw even break 500k heals for an entire BG while other healers are all pushing over 1 million.

Buff mw

He didn’t change the debate. He’s expanding on the subject in a way which you appear to be unclear on.

A big part of why dps can be crazy is because you and/or your team are not stopping that damage from happening. That’s the point of his convoke example, you’re letting them get free damage. I think the only unavoidable big damage at this point is hunters camo opener because you have no idea it’s coming and he can range you at 40 yards. Even the rogue can be shut down if you swap on him when he’s trying to open on your teammate.

That’s not to say that dps still isn’t going to hurt anyway. Sometimes you’re going to get mongo’d down no matter what you do. But PvP right now is not the end of the world for healers if your teammates have at least half a brain.

MW needs help but other than that healing is pretty damn strong right now.

I just feel mw needs a little help defensively. I feel like a wet noodle, at least I can run fast.
