Please make healing more worthwhile than Dps-ing

[Miminming]

This. If Healers are meeting heal checks and everyone is doing their job, for what reason should we restrict Healers when they’re already at the bottom rung of DPS(bar WHM in some cases because selfish DPS)? We need more reason to play healer, not less.

i confused, why making healer can heal without droping their dps make them want to play healer less!? unless people prefer mindless glare... which i know some like

Have you not played WHM because this is literally WHM.

Reducing our potencies isn't going to stop us from DPSing. What on earth makes you think that would do *anything*? Our DPS output could be reduced to 3.x levels and we'd still be advocating for DPS contribution because it's more worthwhile than standing around with our fingers up our noses. I play videogames with other people to actively contribute to the group effort, not so I can watch them do everything for me and occasionally lift a finger when I'm actually needed.

Bad players are going to be bad players no matter what tools they have access to. Blaming it on the evil boogeyman that is DPS skills is dumb.

「t's more worthwhile than standing around with our fingers up our noses」when there's NOBODY need heal then yeah DPS-ing is the best... but some healer DPS-ing more and i do mean more than that


I play WMH only on extreme level and the problem is the balance, its's still higher to just glare than healing, they need to make healing can end up in higher damage to make this work, which is not atm

PS. i'm not saying this toward healer who manage to keep their party alive i'm saying this because there's many (or my bad luck) healer cant't keep their party alive in savage especially...

as said ... it's not the game's flaws that kills players. It's players. and this could happen even if healers had no dps kit

Because as Shadowbringers has showed us, giving us more tools to heal with does not make it fun when there's so little damage going out. If i can top everyone up with one indom what am i supposed to do while i wait for the next big hit? Twiddle my thumbs? Dance? The issue is healers can either Heal or DPS. There is no third engaging thing we could be doing.

Yes and? Bad players are bad players no matter the tools they have available. Strip them of all DPS tools and they would still probably fail to heal you. Because they are bad players. Not because they have access to the forbidden DPS arts.

A lot of people do *actually* want the developers to create interaction between healing tools and their dps tools. The only class that has it right now is WHM. It is very likely to remain this way, because it's what WHM's identity is now. But there is no way for them to make healing more worthwhile than DPSing. Healing has an upper limit. DPS does not. They can potentially increase the healing burden, but they're not going to do that. They haven't done it since ARR launched. Unlikely to start doing so now. People already struggle to heal damage output as it stands.
