What is the most fun healer?

… and the least fun?

Biased, but i think priests are very fun to heal with.

And while evoker has its moments, i rank it the “worst” due to its limitations. In 5 man, it’s not so terrible. But in raiding, when people are REALLY spread out or even split into groups, you can really see the difference.

For the longest time Disc was my favorite because of its unique dps-healer style. But Holy Paladin getting a battle rez, an immunity, group-wide DR AND an interrupt gives me unprecedented control in PuGs so that has taken the top spot for me.

It’s a trick question - healers are never fun to play.

When a dps makes a mistake, their dps goes down a bit, when a tank makes a mistake, they just aggro again, but when a healer fails PEOPLE DIE!!!

Too much pressure!

I honestly love healing, but if I were stuck with Blizzard’s UI to do it I would probably cancel my life subscription from the nearest bridge.

Getting that “nice heals” at the end of a pug is a dopamine hit I find difficult to describe.

Fistweaver monk is easily the most fun. It’s the only heals I can stand to play for more than one dungeon at a time or so. You can just dive in and dps while keeping everyone topped off without any actual healing spells, and have some strong cooldowns if you need them. Also most of their heals are or at least can be instant cast so you can stay mobile and doing things. Oh and they can keep up with the rest of the group’s movement, which is important since mobility creep is a pretty big deal now.

Back in the day I would’ve said Resto Druid because it was completely brainless to play for the reward and I find that fun personally

It’s MW monk for me now, I get to play like a DPS while getting all the benefits of being a healer

For me currently. Shaman, Holy, Mistweaver, Druid. I’m not currently doing Evo or Pally. With the zoom zoom I can move really well with each, though currently find the Druid heals lackluster and struggle compared to previous xpac. I prefer healing as it relaxes me, even when things go wrong cause that just gives an adrenaline spike.
