    And yet it was still the most commonly played Healer...

    That stems from the community perception of it being the best. Which is why it had such a low win rate and why the buffs should not have been so massive. That was a clear over compensation

    The low winrate could also be attributed to having vastly more players than the other healers. A 40y line aoe that stuns, damages and gives HoT every minute is extremely powerful, especially when it's compounded with the terrible level design.

    Oh yeah I wasn't defending it or anything. Didn't finish my point but ye, having the community at large think WHM is the best lead to it having by far the largest playerbase, which in turn lead to a much lower win rate as not everyone can pilot the class at a high level or whatever issues may arise.

    Factoring in win rates is important IF you also include the pick rates, compare them and shit. It'd be like going saying one character is overpowered because it has a 56% win rate, but then neglecting to mention something like a .2% pick rate or something. There's more to analyzing this than just win rates, and I don't doubt SE has access to this data so it's mind boggling why they couldn't come to this conclusion.
