Let’s be 100% real if healers were required to do the amount of healing the tank does now + the amount of healing required by them currently the vast majority of healers would not be able to keep up.

I agree it’s a fun boss to heal, but I also agree if every boss was pure high rot it would get old.
Variety is important, and mid/low damage with high damage phases where cooldowns are planned is probably a good middle ground for most fights and players. It’s easy telegraphing for when to use healing cooldowns and when dps should use defensives.

I don’t mind it when the tank actually clips the boss into the ice cubes during the hide section so I can hit the boss as MW. The issue is my tanks never want to do that and instead love making us run 20 yards for no reason.
You’ll HAVE to get OVER it because SOME tanks mitiGATE by SELF healing.

Your take is actually that people arent playing heals because tanks heal too much…
What m8?
Honestly.
Tanks healing more than the healers is likely part of the vicious cycle where unless there is crazy high sustained damage that is hitting everyone, a healer isn’t considered required and thus we end up with this patch’s changes that encouraged more healing spam to offset increased health pools and damage.
Its probably not specifically because tanks are good at self sustaining, its that because they were so good at it, the requirement of a healer dropped significantly until the solution was just “Make everyone get hurt more and make the healer heal less. That will keep them healing!”
Two things.
- If you’re doing a near perfect run of course people aren’t taking damage except the tank. There is nothing to heal so of course the meters are low
- Why is your selfesteem based on a meter. that’s weird

Tanks should be mitigating damage instead of healing, I guess. But I’m not game designer, I’m just saying that for me it feels AWFUL to play a HEALER and be outhealed by the TANK.
It really looks like it is a “me” problem here, the VAST MAJORITY of people don’t agree with my take. It’s like 95% of replies disagree with me. I’m ok with that. I will just move on and stop healing, since I’m not having fun.

Also some healers are just awful at tank healing and would need redesigns if we had to push next to all of the burden on the healer. PEvoker has a “broken” tank external, but that is really about as good as it gets for tank healing because Verdant Embrace is like 20 something seconds and Reversion+Living Flame only gets you so far.

Do you want us to shed a tear here? Why do you keep repeating this
Some tanks rely on mitigation; some tanks rely on self-healing. That’s interesting and varied game design, just in the same way all of the healers heal in distinct and varied ways.
There’s no need for all tanks to survive primarily through mitigation just because seeing them have more HPS makes healing un-fun, apparently.

You don’t have a response so you spend a few minutes to look for a cartoon clip. Classic.
You legit want to spam 2 buttons and be carried, homie. That’s what this is.

Oh holy crap who cares. Mitigated damage versus healed damage is all the same crap.
You guys are really “feeling bad” by semantics?
Screw tough love, i’m just going to be real… That’s stupid

As a heal main in what’s considered a pretty bad bracket I would hate to have tanks such as BDK lose their sustainability. That would 100% be a bad time.

I care. If you don’t, just move. No one is forcing you to be here LMAO.
?? No, it feels fine. To me, anyway. Besides, next season we’ll have the Iridikron fight to inflate the overall so bad that there’s no way a tank will be #1 for heals at the end of the run unless something is VERY wrong, lol.
Not forced. And eventually I will but What you’re asking for is more work to get to the same spot… Honestly
