Healer Players Deserve More than Just Crumbs

Not that I have been playing a healer of late but was anybody actually running out of mana?

Yeah, I remember running out of mana. Think it was back in Molten Core on my Priest back in vanilla WoW.

[Schan]

Not really. I only have SGE experience and I only start getting low on mana if I forget to use Lucid Dreaming off cooldown.

Even then it wasn't a massive issue because people weren't getting hurt that badly so I just throw something that uses my Addersgall stacks (normally a random single Druochole every now and then, yay for overhealing) when I'm about to cap on Addersgall stacks so I can get some extra mp to compensate for my mistake.

I can see why they've done it. If you sit there spamming your attack button and don't use Lucid then the MP drain can be noticeable but it's something you can fix by interacting with the rest of your kit.

And don't get me started on reducing the manacost when healer are at the point of using crafted hands and normal raid boots to avoid all possible piety.

Thank GOD I'm not the only one who got irritated by the constant loss of crit for piety since SHB. They just keep missing the mark and you know it's bad when the "BiS" gear becomes a DPS loss. Goes to show this role has just been completely forgotten about.

Loling hard at the MP changes too. Not like MP even mattered so it doesn't change anything but it still shows how clueless the team is.

So there were like 5-10 people who ran out of mana and they fixed that but wont look at the larger issues "/sigh". On the bright side we will have extra mana for our 1 nuke &/or AE.

we can only wish for better in 8.0 sadly because as long as content isn't balanced toward casual/midcore there will be no change sadly we will only be getting the dust or at one point deleted

The healer forum is completely barren these days, almost no discussion, which is as it should be considering how garb the role currently is, and how stale it is with no changes. People either just quit, move on or are on afk mode 111 in their duty. And considering that devs sh** on feedback that's not japanese (and they seem to enjoy mindless 111), nobody's doing that anymore.

We’ve all gotten tired of offering the same feedback that gets ignored

At this the extent of my contribution to the healer forum is pointing out how overpowered SCH currently is. I’m sick of offering well crafted feedback that’s lost to the void

I looked at a video about healers back then and how the pmayer base complained whats funny is that cause ppl complained about it they got what they wanted only to realise it wasn't what they wanted. As a dev once said You think you want it but you really dont want it. XD oh and the youtuber in question was Xeno. He brought it up anout the current status of healers and why the changes are both the player base and dev fault.

Whether the playerbase is or isn’t at fault for the feedback changes that led the healers from HW->SB->ShB has long since become irrelevant because the vast majority of visible feedback in the last 2 expansions has focused on what’s wrong with the modern healers

We don’t endlessly punish the other roles for feedback they offered 4 expansions ago so healers shouldn’t be punished either

Whether feedback was the cause, if square over corrected, both or neither stopping being relevant when EW doubled down on ShB design
