Where are all the healers!

See this is all healers care about.

Loot per raid quota.

Priests are it. My server has 9 resto shaman with a reported completed gnomer. They didnā€™t change playstyle of resto shaman or holy pali for healing. Why play them when other specs are way more fun. Not to mention healers are super under appreciated. Soft reserved a ā€œcasterā€ item that nobody else soft reserved because of better mp5, recieved tells about it and why I wasnā€™t reserving the healing item that was made for a priest.

there is no other metric honestly. Would you work 3 weeks irl with no pay while paying for your own materials?

gdkp = ban
MS>OS, healers want caster gear, they wont heal.

Do people actually want to heal instead of kill things???

At 60 bro you will go months without a piece of loot.

So yeah a couple of weeks is nothing.

You might want to find a different game if you expect loot each raid.

Because priest and mages are meta healers atmā€¦ Druidā€™s have 1 heal and take runes that are DPS for mana regen to spam Wild Growth. Shaman are a good 100-160 hps behind, tons of mana just no healing runes worth anything that do healing.

dont expect it each raidā€¦but 1 item in 3 raids yeah when every other class has 2-4 items already

Iā€™m not reading through 100+ replies, but I will say as content becomes more difficult you will find less and less people willing to play tanks or healers. GDKPā€™s were the main driver to do both of those roles and if people couldnā€™t find a gdkp that lockout or were feeling like it they would join non gdkp runs. Now that there isnā€™t any gdkps allowed there isnā€™t a reason to play the roles, healers have to use way too many consumes to make up for idiots mistakes.

If everyone in a group brought me 5 greater mana potions each iā€™d be willing to heal possibly a gnomer, that or maybe 50g for my time/consumes/etc.

Just like death and taxes, some things are guaranteed:

Thereā€™s never enough healers.
Thereā€™s never enough tanks for 5 mans.
Thereā€™s too many tanks for raids.

Maybe you have unrealistic expectations. How much gear do you need to heal?

Why do you need to be healer BIS?

No one cares about healing logs. As long as people arenā€™t dying why do you even need gear?

And like he said. No healing healing bonus on shaman caster mail just lightning bolt -.2s.

well, this is why so few healers imo. The new meta will be hire a healer for 100g a raidā€¦ I have seen 40g already

I know. I said healers want either guaranteed loot or gold.

No one heals for fun.

nope in raid it is a thankless job anymore.

I still enjoy healing bgā€™s though

You could say this about dps tooā€¦ the boss still dead, why do you need new gear.

GDKP stopped and they all joined guilds who donā€™t demand that they DPS harder than some of the DPS, while being the sole healer ā€œfor speedā€.

Wrong, healers are the least gear dependent class, especially in SoD.

You just want it, because you want it.

I like pvp and im resto, but im out of mana in 5 sec using ā€˜fun hot albilitiesā€™ as it should be. Also all my runes are useless exept wildgrowth. Otherwise, you try to heal with a 3 sec cast , but the guy die in 1.5sec.
