For making a DPS waste up to an hour in a solo Q.
I can’t remember the time my Qs popped under 30 minutes.
Insane!

There’s no incentive to heal shuffle aside from faster queues which probably aren’t even that attractive considering how stressful and unforgiving healing is relative to playing dps.
In terms of rewards it’s just easier and more relaxed to play dps.

Healing shuffle is not that bad man, I created a priest just because I can’t take these Qs anymore.
If you can own it and be a better healer than the other one you will always win points. And to me winning is fun so healers or a person that wants to heal should be into being better than the other guy

Participation suggests that it’s not the most enjoyable or worthwhile of activities.
I believe more incentives should be offered as that’s the easiest potential solution that doesn’t really require systemic changes such as a reduction in burst, cc, increase in agency, whatever.
Even just bags of gold.
Its not just healers man, I get on 5 mins Q as a healer too! its the investment they are doing on this Q system that is outdated and no longer works anyway I aint here trynna argue and fight I just think Blizzard can do better
then just heal y u whine

lol thanks for adding to the conversation
well, you get more conquest, but is really stressfull, 99% of the games is a draw 3/6, and the other 1% is half you get 4/6 or 2/6. in my shaman i have more than 300 rounds in the same bracket, you dont go down, you dont go up, you just stay there forever. Im almost on my third viccious saddle doing solo shuffle in the same bracket. its always the same problem, theres a low intellect dps that makes both sides lose.
I’m enjoying playing healer, but what makes me mad is this stagnant thing, and i do solo shuffle because i really hates building up groups or joining, i like this automatchmaking.

good reply. I dont mind the healing either its kinda cool. but yeah sometimes it goes 3-3 and u get 0 points when the other healer is good as u and u dont move forward but I do believe there’s nothing holding healers back cause its truly pushing the healer to be better than the other one. to the point I almost think looking for group for 3s is worst than solo
bags of gold, that would be really appreciated
Lazy and easy reward; gold.
I just got this for healing a random heroic dungeon.
There’s also role specific rewards, like heal 100 shuffles and get a hat.
Or heal 600 and get a mount.

besides you being a vulpera, i agree 100% with you, just give gold, i’m always poor in this game, a full transmog is 700+ gold, and is a gold sucking maelstrom from me, i have 10k spreaded on 13 charcters, please give me gold blizzard for doing a favor for those filthy dps.
Th-thanks. 
Healings not that bad? Your literally 1200 rating in shuffle as disc no less. Healing is awful unless your playing fistweaver and even then its not healing your just playing windwalker with less buttons.

Hearding cats is far more enjoyable and rewarding than attempting to heal some DPS in SS.

Blizzard didn’t do this. You did it by queuing the same role 99% of other people play.
heh…
That’s likely more to do with class stacking, and the system trying to avoid it.
I’d take some free conquest boxes for my alts. Maybe even throw upgrade tokens in for them to let them have the same ilvl on the gear as your main does.
Tbh, I have the name Fox and still hate vulpera.
Yeah this is the big issue that people don’t realize. The system punishes spec stacking. Maybe it should be more clear what is overqueued at the moment and what isn’t, so you could select a class that isn’t so sought after to play… but in the end people are going to play what’s strong the majority of the time anyways.

I just want to say, thanks for always showing up in these threads and throwing suggestions out there. As a healer main all through shadowlands, this season broke me. I swapped to dps and I don’t know if I’ll go back. There is just no reason to. Im having way more fun and it’s way less stress.

Tbh, solo shuffle healing feels a bit better to me just because I know I swap out teams each match, so I don’t have to worry about if I’m performing my best or not. If I were queueing actual 3’s, that’s where that stress really hits home though.
Healing shuffle is not that bad man
But it is right now thanks to demo/ret/bm (esp ret).
