Less enjoyment in 3.0 raidingas healer (compared to 2.0)

[MariaNyan]

Pretty funny how ppl react when they do things overgeared. Guys, savage recommended ilvl is 190, not 210... and dungeon have this too. Try to faceroll fractal continuum with ilvl145, 150, youll be amazed how difficult stuff is when you do the same pulls. Healer and tankdps come in handy when you have enough room to breathe in terms of gear and skill. While we cant deny that some mechanics in alex are weird like the dpscheck, i think the dps need a ingame feedback how well they do in terms of debuffs/damage instead of teamwipes.

Anyways soloheal and faceroll are stories you can try at min ilvl. Perhaps youll get more excited wearing crafted ilvl 150 gear in dungeons than wondering why stuff is sooooo easy.

Dungeons are still faceroll when they're implemented. The one time this wasn't true was Pharos Sirius, and they nerfed that considerably. Although I might be wrong given that I typically have the strongest available gear level when new dungeons are implemented, so I probably am starting beyond the min dungeon ilvl?

I am admittedly a little confused by all the SCH's saying they don't heal in Gordias, because... well, that has definitely not been my experience in the slightest. I mean hell, I still use Eos for most of 3 and 4.

Easy way to find out. Get a premade group, turn on minimum ilvl, queue for one of the current expert roulette dungeons (which require ilvl 170). When they came out, a lot of people already outgeared those dungeons by a good 20-30 ilvls.

I do actually agree with you, though, in that I would like to see more CC and tactical combat. The problem with this, on the other hand - which is why it also was toned down considerable in WoW in the later expansions - is that it leads to some jobs being required for content, unless you give everyone adequate CC skills (at which point people will complain about homogenization).

There's actually a really easy way they could do this that WoW could never do, and that's make THM Sleep and CNJ Repose cross class skills, and then add some kind of 20-second CC move to LNC and make that cross class as well since all physical DPS cross class LNC. Then again BRD and MCH already have great binds, so maybe give it to PGL instead so only melee DPS would get it.

Of course that would mean tanks got the move as well, so maybe not ideal, but would be easy!

So...homogenization?
