Isn't it about time for WHM to get an AOE mitigation tool?

[Miste]

where statics pressured their healers to roll AST every single week until they either did so or left the static.

Okay let's try this again.

Your words alone does not prove that WHM was being ostracized by the majority of groups.

Where is your proof of this happening on a large scale? Are you just speaking of your own personal experience? If so then do you know anyone else who had the same thing happen to them? Got any screenshots of groups blocking out WHM after 3.4? I actually have screenshots I posted in another thread of at SB launch showing groups accepting all healers equally for statics and AST even still had their buffed balance card back then.

Here is the post if you want to see it:

This one hosted by a WHM so they wanted either SCH or AST to not stack another WHM.





^ Seems like all healers are sought after and wanted.

Keep in mind also these PFs were all BEFORE the patch notes from last night revealing AST balance nerfs. They were screenshotted last week.

I don't get why people seem to think that WHM or SCH are not wanted. Those screenshots are only taken just in one evening also within 10-20 mins of checking PFs here and there, plenty more if I kept checking.

Sure some groups might block one of the healers out just like some groups might refuse to take a specific DPS for reasons. It is their group so they can make the decision, but even so obviously there are MANY other groups to choose from if one group gives you crap for just not being an AST.

Likewise, Zurvan groups blocked WHM from joining because of the whole "skip soar" thing, and AST/SCH was a much better combo to achieve this. Luckily these were the last patches, or it would have went on even further.

Are you really going to deny all of this happening, and are you really trying to tell me it won't happen again even though all of the signs point to the same conclusion?
And again, I never said the exclusion was happening NOW but it WILL happen if things stay as they are.

I am not denying it per say. I am asking you to prove what you are claiming. Unless you can prove it with facts and evidence then your claims mean nothing and it is simply your own personal experience or opinion and not actually fact that WHMs were kicked or forced into playing AST by the majority of groups.

Also it took me over 100 runs of Zurvan to get my primal bird drop from him and finally win the roll. I farmed him....ON WHM. I was NEVER blocked out of a group for being a WHM unless there was already another WHM already in the group and they didn't want to stack same healer. This goes against what you are claiming. Over 100 runs and never ran into this WHM ostracizing that you claim is so common.

If what you are claiming was true and such a widespread blocking of WHMs from groups then why did I see none of it? Maybe I was just lucky? I don't know. That is why I am asking you for proof because without it then you are just blowing smoke.
