Somewhat lacking in single target healing, I have had this thought of a channeled Essence ability similar to that of Disintegrate but for healing. Relying on Living Flame just isn’t very viable.
I’ll be reiterating my desire for a channeled Essence heal. Engulf is by far one of the best AoE dps/heal abilities in the kit.
Maybe make disintegrate have a talent that lets it heal or damage just like living flame?
Then echo a VE? Or just a VE period?
Who would LF be your go to for a single heal?
When TWW comes around Engulf is actually a decent single target heal even without dream breath to consume, and then with dream breath is a better ST heal and a solid aoe heal.
Needing something more than just combos, here. That’s minimum 2 GCDs for a heal that would be better spent on 3+ targets.
If you’re trying to play a reactive healer, this isn’t it.
Never thought of that and i love the idea.
Rewind, Life-binder, Verdant Embrace. Are you kidding me? Are you sure you’re even playing the same class?
Going to ignore everything from you from now on. You’re being reductive, adding nothing to the conversation, and quite frankly I believe you’re a troll.
This is a lot of words to say “you don’t agree with me”.
I know it’s crazy to consider, but complainers looking for an echo chamber aren’t the only players here.
Let’s be honest though, he’s not the 5th person to accuse you of this. You nay-say almost everyone on this subforum.
Again, most people are here to complain and presenting a different opinion is not trolling.
If you can’t handle an actual conversation about the class and just want others to commiserate with things you don’t like, the ignore button isn’t a whole lot of work.
You’re not obnoxious enough to ignore because you do occasionally have something worthwhile to say. I’m not gonna pretend that because your behavior and attitude is mostly annoying that you’re exclusively annoying.
But from what I have seen in the brief time I have swapped to maining evoker and been visiting this subforum more often, I have seen you arguing with everyone. You are the lowest common denominator. So if you’re merely offering perspective, then your perspective just happens to almost always be contrarian.
And all your comments are along the lines of “the class is fine, you’re just bad.” or something similar along those lines. Perhaps not so direct but the message is the same.
Also, consider for a moment that sometimes people might just want to complain and rant/vent about something they dislike? Are you the grief police? No one is allowed to air their frustrations about anything while you’re on watch?
It’s absolutely fine to vent frustrations.
To reduce alternative opinions to “you’re trolling” just because you don’t want to hear another viewpoint is ignorant.
This isn’t a support group, it’s a class forum. Everyone has a right to state their opinion, whether it’s agreeing with a point or not.
While you’re paraphrasing and reducing the argument, the data from the expansion unequivocally points to this being fairly accurate, specifically for the DPS specs.
It’s simply not a popular opinion to tell people that the answer to their problem is improving at playing the class instead of complaining to blizzard incessantly to make the class (even more) simple.
I supported the basis of this post and didn’t argue with it, because it admits that there should be a trade-off for more range (which is true), and also affords a solution for players that don’t want the extra range and would prefer power.
If you just don’t like the range and don’t spew nonsense about it being some punishment with no trade-off, that’s a fair opinion.
The players that have touched lfr/normal at most that are here complaining that the range “doesn’t work” haven’t even learned the class fully, or put effort into learning a different playstyle. They just want evoker watered down to 40 yds to avoid having to put any effort into getting better.
No disagreement here, I fully embrace that I trend far more towards enjoying the bones of the specs than most here.
It doesn’t make my point of view that of a “troll”, and real solutions don’t happen in echo chambers.
If evoker is going to get to a place where more people want to play and enjoy it (which is obviously a good thing) then contrarian opinions are just as important to that process as the “venting” forum masses are.
Personally, I have never felt such a strong need for a single-target healing spell for the Prevoker. We have other ways to ensure no one dies. I think the Prevoker is a different kind of healer, where in some situations we will use AOE abilities for high single-target healing values.
