As a Prevoker im 420 pvp Ilvl with 8% crit, 14% haste, 29% mastery and 25% vers. I feel like my stats are wrong for healing I am struggling hard around the 1500CR range in 2’s I dont know if its me or the comps any advice for higher ranks?
And 25% vers feels like a total waste we are Squishy AF and our healing isnt as strong as other healers. The DMG output blizzard keeps buffing hard is making our HOT’s less and less effective IMO
I wanna say I have a decent amount of crit/haste still too. Not nearly as much vers. I logged off in PvE gear so I can’t check for sure. I use similar stats to M+ as the premise is the same. You want big, beefy heals.
Talent choices also make a huge impact on PvP. I’m not great by any means, and I only touch solo queue nowadays, which is way different than a 2s match.
Basic talent stuff Inc, but I just wanted to put it out there for anyone coming to this thread:
I make sure to get Emerald Communion, which is a beast of a heal that can heal through most CCs. I make sure to use it when they’re training 1-2 targets hard with burst and I know regular healing won’t save them.
Time Dilation is amazing for the target that’s currently being trained.
You don’t need essence for too much for PvP, so I mostly use it for Echo > Reversion. Golden Hour will come in clutch, and that gives your target 2 decent HoTs. Echo > R1 Spiritbloom is amazing too. Super fast so hard to interrupt, but will heal everyone with Echo for a fat amount.
I like to run Stasis and pop it before I pump out big heals my team. That way if the burst is still coming in just pop Stasis again and you effectively double your healing.
I forget the name of the talent, but the one where Obsidian Scales makes you uninterruptable unless you’re hard CC’d has come in clutch numerous times as well.
Most every match I’ve lost has been due to having people who have gear but no clue how to PvP outside of random BGs on my team, people sprinting out of my range and getting burst down, or simply getting CC’d into oblivion while they train a squishy teammate. It’s very rarely due to lack of healing. I feel Preservation has a better kit than most to deal with arena healing since most of our stuff is either instant cast or a takes like 1 second to build up to R1.
Im struggling around 1400 pevoker
Crit 11
Haste 14
Mastery 23
Vers 24
419 pvp itm lvl
Hit the pvp dummy for the real PVP values. Those values are way too low.
With all due respect, if you’re struggling around 1500 then it has nothing to do with stats. It’s your gameplay.
Preservation is a top-tier healer in PvP, second only to resto druid.
not to be that guy but those 100% wins on you look fishy…
Leaving much ?
