You should try playing with competent players. Every affix is a team affix, and should be dealt with as a group. Except volcanic, that one you’re SoL on, gotta just dodge.
i feel for them this week. dungeons are already more demanding of them , baseline, +with this week’s affixes on top it must be downright hell 
-throws herself a coin-
Evil carry me in RBL - i cant seem to find a pug that does not die on the first boss.

This expac is fun as hell for healers imo. Current stuttering issues have made m+ unplayable for me at the moment, but thats my only complaint. I love the rush and multi-tasking required for this expac. 
Favorite dungeon mechanics in a long time.
A lot of healers got a little too used to just hitting /follow on the tank in SL.
Ruby Life Pools and Azure Vault this week is pure masochism, I love Holy Paladin but god damn this week made it feel like the spec wasn’t made for so much constant damage on everyone.
Switch to Shadow level up to max and switch to healer boom! Or just heal dungeons over and over. You either like playing your toon or you don’t and that is part of being a healer.
I have. Cataclysm Heroics at launch. I was there. I remember.

season 1 SL was way harder to heal imo…especially on Tyrannical…
this season is only difficult because DPS players have more responsibility…and a large portion of said players are bads.
lots more mistakes to correct, but i think when you reach a higher rating, these issues will vanish pretty quickly 
Season 2 SL was the hardest season i’ve ever played in though 
I will always remember the DK “tank” that I had to heal, after I hit 85 in Cata.
He was wearing leather, mail, cloth and plate. I hadn’t bothered inspecting him, until he kept spam dying and I was like wtf.

I don’t mind challenges as a healer, I just don;t like it when I am in a group of pugs that don’t know it’s a challenge.

I didn’t think they were bad on my Resto Shaman. There were some bosses where you would scrape by OOM, but it still wasn’t hard for me idk. I AM KRUMTOILET!!!
Sure thing!
Thank you to all the healers who continuously wined and complained on these very forums about how you hated having to do a slight amount of DPS when you had nothing to heal since it was so easy, so Blizzard listened to your complaints and added unavoidable AoE damage to a lot of dungeons so you would have something to do.
Oh and thank you for crying about how tanks were so strong they didn’t need healers at all so Blizzard nerfed them now making you not only have to deal with keeping DPS up from unavoidable damage, but you must also focus that very tank you caused to get nerfed because it takes lots of damage now.

Cool, you’re welcome. I am very glad to be back to properly healing, and not some derp hybrid tryna dps.
Oh, yeah, you mean like it was before the esports nonsense and the cry kiddies started happening? As in, the good days of healing? Yeah, I’m good with that too.

I had someone call me out for “having nearly full mana” after a wipe on the Last boss in shadow moon where one cat was simply sidestepping the proximity damage orb and not moving away (and complained of “high pulsing damage”) and two of the melee where eating the wall dot almost every add phase because they weren’t staying in front of the add while doing damage on it. I got a chuckle out of that one.
