Stop complaining about having to do damage as a healer... all you have to do is weave in a few spells

Oh sweetie yea it was way harder then it is now … the spec is a joke now

I actually wonder, in most fights there is absolutely nothing going on for the first 15-20 seconds, What are you doing just staring at your screen?

It doesn’t matter what I’m doing, nor what anyone else is doing. You relax until it’s your time to shine, then you work. Are you trying to be world first? If not, then there is no need to worry about maximizing every possible second. That’s wayy too much control freak.

A Tank could and can get Chunked within that Time Frame.
A healer has to be on their toes.

If you guys want healers to dps then tell Blizzard to balance healer dps. You know how awful it feels to catweave and try to do an entire dps rotation as a resto druid and do maybe a third of the dps something like Shamans and Holy Paladins get with their Earth Elemental / Ashen Hallow?

Makes me feel like I’m a wet noodle in here trying to play DDR with one leg to squeak out a measly 3k dps while a Resto Shaman just gets the tank to pull a big pack, drop earth elemental. Maybe toss out a chain lightning and out perform actual DPS.

They will never understand

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, are you serious? Most tank(not warrior) self heal for more than any healing they receive.

All healers need to heal on certain windows where they do a “full hands on deck” approach, but outside of those there is a lot of deadtime where they can throw more than a few damaging spells or in a more coordinated group 1 or 2 are fully doing damage outside of big incoming damage windows.

Yes.
If they aren’t competent.
Which Tends to be the case for Some Newer Players.

Yea if there a High Ilvl sure but that not the case in most groups

If they have low ilv or new they are probably tanking easier content, where they are not going to die in 15 seconds.

Not everyone run with a group full of I.O scores of 3k with Ilvl 275+ gear

Newer players are doing low m+ and normal raids, where you can faceroll it as a tank and the only reason you die is because you fail a mechanic, where healing is not going to save you from a 1 shot(usually from the other tank not taunting in the case of raiding).

Do you pug, at all or do you do only organized content like guild groups? From the way you type you sound like someone who’s never been in a pug or if you have they set a mega big requirement like “aotc required” on week 3 of the raid being out when hardly anyone has it.

In pugs, people take damage all the time. Many people stand in things for extra damage so there’s always constant heals going off. Healers battle each other to get the little scraps of damage outside of big abilities going off, and then rest and recover mana or do other things they wanna do.

Yeah, pug life is a big amount of nonsense, really.

Yes and you have anywhere from 6 to 24 dps all standing in the bad to do more damage so they don’t have to move.

Cool, something to heal that sounds like actual fun.

I did some healing back in Legion(normal raids) and I was begging the groups to take damage to not be bored out of my mind, while doing a full dps(2-3 buttons lol). I dont know what healers that dont dps do, there is really nothing to heal and 1 person can usually take care of it, outside of big window of incoming damage.

Okay sure, the Tank’s fault He Doesn’t trust his DPS to stay out of the Null Zone, which is why they died. Then, Suddenly that is the healers fault TOO Because they didn’t move in time.

That’s what TURNS me away from BOTH Roles Because my fellow dps players stand in the “you will die juice”.

In raid, when a tank dies 99% is the fault of the other tank that didnt taunt when he was suppose to.

Oh buddy this has barely ANYTHING to do with Raiding.
