A summary of healer issues

[Kazukiyashuo]

Glad you're enjoying them. I can see the appeal of wanting balance over more enjoyable gameplay, however healing as a role has been pretty wonky for a while and people would like healers to be treated with the same love as DPS jobs instead of making them the same. Same goes for tanks.

Also your comment on the "salt" train? I would say there's a bit of people on that train so I'm guess we're just the whiners to you. Whether or not you are complacent with how healers are currently doesn't mean that people can't voice their opinions. There's a reason why there's a massive thread of why healer mains have quit.

It's actually sad that SE wanted more healers by making them "easier" when those who do get bored of the staleness of healers then move onto other roles.

Actually, it's pretty dumb that they wanted to lure in more players from other roles. DPS players will always be the majority, them actually switching to healer or tank is quite rare. They get bored and go back and I don't blame them.

What SE should've focused on was making healers more intricate and building on the foundations they set. They should have focused on the existing player base rather than try to appeal to the masses that never were interested. Healer-minded players will always gravitate to the role and SE should have capitalized on that.


So yeah, glad you're liking the current state but your negative comment is not needed.

Well everyone can voice their opinion, did i ever said otherwise. Its just happen that your opinion sound salty whining in my opinion. We just disagree . Cant take it otherwise , since i know what was the healers kit in every expansion. And thats a fact , it was NEVER deep or high skill ceiling or complex dps or i dunno what else. It was always like that. And dont bring up SCH. Cause i already expressed my opinion about how silly it is to consider 1,2 dots a game breaking change. And to finish that up, im not negative. I just dissagree and have different opinion

Or in other words, "You're entitled to your opinion, but it sounds annoying and whiny and mine is the right opinion anyway."

You're totally allowed to be content with the Healers in their current state, but painting yourself as objectively right while being passive aggressive toward the people who disagree with you is NOT the look you want to have when you're trying to take the moral high ground.

You make a valid point that the healers are more balanced now than ever, and you're also right that healer DPS has never been deep or thoughtful, but saying that's the justification for making Healer DPS even less deep is like saying that someone's car is fine now that it's been totaled because it was already damaged to begin with. You can have well-balanced healers and have them feel unique with more intricate DPS tools, and that's what a lot of players want.

Collectively, the healers are viewed to be in a state of mediocrity. You can disagree and think they're fine, but to complain that other players aren't happy with the design and want to see it get better is petty and obnoxious. If you're fine with the bar for quality is being set as low as it is, then it shouldn't bother you if the bar is increased in the future, so why be passive aggressive about it? I will never understand people who are content with a game's state but find it offensive when others ask for better quality.

Imagine going to a restaurant and ordering a salad, and all you get is a bowl of lettuce with oil and vinegar. When the wait staff ask you about your meal, you say it was bland and could be made better with more ingredients, but the person at the table next to you leans over and says "well I thought it was good enough, so I don't know why you're being whiny and salty." That's what this is.
