I was waiting for it :


"I literally USE ALL MY SKILLS, even the ones that lead to my certain death. It's still spin. Healers in PvP are not Healers, they're support DPSers. Which is why most of you that are anti-PvE Healers love them, because you want to play support DPSers, not Healers. That's my point.

That said, I'd LOVE them to actually make a dedicated support role in the game. It wouldn't even really be that hard to flag NIN, BRD, DNC, and AST as "Support" to fill out that role in a 4 man party and have 1-2 of them standard in 8 mans and 24 mans (per party). I think that's what people really want, they just aren't sure how to ask for it and somehow feel people telling them this is an insult.

And no, WHM LB will not kill a SMN outright. Believe me, I've tried. The number of times I've hit a SMN with LB, AND Misery, AND Miracle to prevent them healing, AND Seraph to try and finish them off...and then they run off as I try to finish them with Glare, get 100% -> 0% within 5 seconds from their entire party jumping me (what with Seraph taking me into the middle of their line with the melee and tanks) and that my party seems to decide to focus on the PLD with invuln instead...let's just say that happens a LOT in Frontlines. All it takes is the SMN popping Guard right as my LB goes off and they basically can survive anything. WHM isn't MCH or SAM.

And yes, in Frontlines, Seraph is a suicide mission unless you're exclusively using it as the enemy line breaks or some enemy stupidly charged into YOUR party with something like Seraph Strike."




No, my friend, if anything, you are the spin doctor. It really reads like you keep doing the same thing over and over that doesn't work and expecting a different outcome, Probably because you don't like the recent changes to PVP. You also consequently don't even believe that you can actually put out significant amounts of healing if necessary. It may surprise you that I agree- we are more support that the old PVP healer- BUT at least on WHM and on AST you should be able to heal for quite a bit, and without "suiciding" particularly on AST. A good SCH can also really be excellent against a couple of summoners.

So by all means keep spinning this "I know what a real healer is" and ' you guys are all anti-PVE healers" if it makes you feel better. It won't help you in PVP, the only way is to try something different and to see if that works better.
