Me and 30 other groups forming for Gnomer at the same time all looking for healers. What happened to this game? Does nobody heal anymore? I mean they made mages healers kind of and they are just as hard to find. Searching for over an hour for healers just to be able to participate the content. It sucks
Do they need to make healing more fun or engaging? What is the deal? Why is there no healers? This is a serious problem.
We stopped pugging and joined a guild where we don’t get our loot ninja’d.
100% this, oh and healer logs are a joke.
Time to add Hunter healing runes where they shoot healing arrows at people.
I think there is a viable role-play path to have Hunters who use nature magic to heal. The class fantasy could work.
They made the healer class DPS specs strong and fun while making healers meh to play besides disc priest.
Resto shaman for example is not a bad healer, but it’s practically the same playstyle with and without runes.
Healers are also forced to take DPS runes because healer runes for some slots are so bad or just straight up don’t exist
Like idk they are just really fumbling the healer design in general so far
seeing the same on Crusader Strike atm. Dozens of groups needing healers only.
It’s what happens when you still have priest being miles ahead of every other healer.
It’s obvious as a healer what happened, healing is meh right now. DPS is pumping, especially in PvP. So Priest went shadow, Paly went Ret, druid went boomkin, sham went w.e but not resto… I’m getting whispers constantly to heal Gnomer or blood moon and ever BG someone comments yay heals.
Survival spec, you make unguents and potions to patch people up. Basically, the GW2 Engineer’s Med Kit and Elixir Gun kit. ((Man, that was a fun build to play in WvW.))
All of the healer classes got better dps specs in Phase 2.
Half of your healing priests in Phase 1 were just waiting to be Shadow Priests. Same with Resto Shammies and Ele Shammies.
And nobody ever wanted to be an Hpal. They still don’t.
EDIT: Even with the boomie nerf, boomkins are also more fun than resto lmao. Half of resto’s runes are dog water.
Honestly all the moonkins and restos are just the same people lol
They’re all boonies who press wild growth and healing touch sometimes
Like they’ve actually reduced the number of druid builds
You’re a feral or you’re the caster one basically lol
I saw what he’s talking about on my server and all the guilds were looking for healers too!
That’s when I knew it was really bad.
What server was this OP? Curious if it’s all of them.
Not quite, because we have 31 talent points now. So resto druids are resto and balance druids are balance.
The thing is, resto druids can off-damage as effectively as balance druids can off-heal, that’s all.
But there is a distinction, however slight it might seem.
I don’t care to pug gnomer so I joined a guild
As I said, lot of guilds trying (and failing) to recruit healers.
I’m not saying anyone should be forced to heal - they shouldn’t - I’m just seeing a serious problem on the horizon if this trend continues.
Time to nerf all casters!
Get them back to healing! 
You want healers, they need to have the power to handle the damage in pvp then
Here’s the basic problem with healing in WoW.
When I DPS, I am always looking at THE GAME.
When I heal, I am almost always looking at HEALTH BARS.
Which one sounds more fun to you?
I was thinking Blizz would throw up their hands, nerf melee hunters, remove the Beast Mastery tree, and add an “Trail Lore” tree that allowed Hunters to heal their allies with their mushroom picking skills.
Healing boring and unrewarding
