Healers seriously need a nerf in PvP

[Nanne]

Healing is balanced around Feast which is 4v4 with tank, melee, healer and ranged. Healers are now at the weakest point they have ever been since I started in season 7 over a year ago. They die very easily in Feast if they are not helped so in Frontlines against players who know what they are doing they die under a second if they are focused. If you make so that every 1 player can just "tunnel" down a healer then there is pretty much no reason to play a job that has nothing else to do but die because major of the players in Frontlines play dps anyways.

If a healer is caught by themselves with no support then they should die.

A group with a healer even if they were toned down would still have better staying power than a group that doesn't have them. They could very easily apply a healing debuff in frontlines (that stacks with other ones like the drk debuff) OR make heals weaker in frontlines in general.

Also, I know this is another unpopular opinion but I'll say it anyway: PVP would be better without healing.

People need to realise that PvP is balanced around Feast, as it should be. PvP is balanced around the idea of you need to sync your largest hitting combo as both DPS (i.e. burst) along with appropriate CC from either a DPS or Tank. SE even gives you, the player, a method to easily communicate this to your teammates.

I'm going to make a pretty bold and very harsh claim, but if you do not participate in high level Feast games then you should not be commenting on PvP balance in this game.

Healers die WAY too easily in both Feast and Frontlines, if you are really struggling to kill them off.. that's a you and your team problem. I'm sorry that button mashing your keyboard didn't get you anywhere. Maybe try Guild Wars 2? There's no healers there.

Healers need a severe buff, not a nerf.

[B]PVP would be better without healing.

no, it wouldnt.

[MorbolvampireQueen6]

no, it wouldnt.

honestly i think it would be and i play healers ^_^ a fight should be to the death without extra help so no healing no items etc would be better in my eyes

It’s quite possible to solo a healer as a Ninja.

I can't tell you how many times I used my hide ability and walked around picking off healers as NIN with a full LB bar. And with the skills to silence and stun the healer + extra DPS and ending them with a LB (while they're riding by on a chocobo) is absolutely amazing. All my kills. xD

i really hope this is an attempt to troll, people wont like pvp in this game anymore if they're killed everytime they go into a fight to then wait for respawns and the time it takes to get back to the fight, stupid idea tbh.

If a group of 4-5 of you can't kill a single healer, you're the issue.

Sure, you'll have a harder time killing experienced healers, but why do they deserve to be nerfed again because you can't read up your skills properly to figure out how to cc/burst them down? If a healer is good enough to heal themselves through 4/5 people with all the nerfs, they deserve to live as they are playing well and using their entire kit efficiently.

Stop whining, go and practice your dmg rotations.

How about we remove healers, and also remove weapons so we have to search for them in the beginning of the match.
I feel like that way everyone has a chance to win!

I'm 100% agree to disagree. Healing is like the core gameplay. Just thinking about it. Without healing you will die even more!
