Self healing outside of Healers Should be removed from game

Community General Discussion

A damn good healer knows that when they have downtime they should be doing damage and this has been something since Vanilla, Not casting spells? Time to /wand

I meanā€¦ without your self healing Fury is pretty squishy. You arenā€™t much of a threat :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

ā€¦ ? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Im a fire mage. I only have bandages, and I almost never use those, mostly on someone else, for humorā€™s sake.

If you canā€™t heal itā€™s just a matter of killing you before you kill me. Fury has no real defensives.

Hey everyone, did you hear? Water is wet.

I agree, nerf Demon Hunters.

Actually no.

Nerf the OP.

I for one donā€™t want to see my survivability destroyed because the OP is mad.

Iā€™d rather not see my heals nerfed because of arena/pvp.

Really annoying when content I take no part in affects PvE.

I get that, but we also have various forms of affecting this.

Slapping a big old ā€œnon-specialized healing is nerfed by 50% in PvPā€ isnā€™t too difficult. They do it with conduits all the time.

I mean having it completely removed would be insane but there are a lot of dps specs that can generate absolutely absurd healing, especially in pvp. Just doesnā€™t make sense to me.

Definitely needs some serious tuning.

I agree. Nerf demon hunters into the dirt.

Self healing, warriors and mages know such thing. Thatā€™s why we die alot in the world and less played.

OP is asking to nerf Demon Hunters.

While in combat, healing has a finite requirement, and DPS or tanks with heals generally ARE expected to use them. Never once seen a BDK that refused to heal, but thatā€™s beside the point. Friendly players donā€™t always need to be healed, enemy targets WILL always need to be damaged, until theyā€™re dead.

Removed? Nah.

But itā€™s excessive in some cases right now. Especially the passive self healing coming from non-hybrid classes. Hybrids generally do LESS overall healing, even though they have to actively lose DPS to make use of theirs (either by actively casting them or wasting resources that would normally go to DPS spells or both.

Certain Tanks also have WAY too much self sustain. They should have a higher focus on reducing damage rather than healing it (exception for Blood DK due to its gimmick). Paladins in particular are totally broken in that regard, and can even replaced the actual healer in many situations if they are dead or performing poorly.

Again Iā€™m not saying we should REMOVE the healing. But it should be toned down. A LOT in some cases.

I am a tank from wowā€¦and I expect a healer to dps if heals are not needed. Anything to make the task at hand smoother, faster and efficient should be done. It really sucks when you see some one just standing there doing nothing but watching.

Just as a Prot Paladin, I help off heal for grievous and other things to take some of the heat off the healer.

Teamwork.

Heals are fine. Issue is gear has caught up to end game and it allows people to do things they couldnā€™t do. When season 4 gets hereā€¦i doubt you will see this group doing plus 20ā€™s on patch day.

Iā€™m not really sure why anyone would want that.

Iā€™d be bored out of my mind.

My other toon is a mistweaver, monk. I smack things. I feel like fistweaving would just go out the window lol
