As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.
I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess
Hum, you maybe right.... between all thoses potency buff, i missed the potency nerf on the 3 or 4 skills mixed in it XD
Well, i still would love to see the healer in a postion of being nerfed at all cost.... Which will never happen XD
They nerfed the muses, but buffed everything else.
A lot of classes just randomly getting changes to their AoE dps, because AoE is definitely very relevant in many fights.
So, healers' kits didn't change this patch. I don't think that's a surprise.
But judging from the notes…
…I can't help but feel that encounters aren't exactly being designed to make healer gameplay more exciting.Due to the unique nature of future battle design, we anticipate situations in which close-ranged attacks may be difficult to execute, so we have generally increased the attack potency of melee DPS roles.
I am sick of healers going ignored by the devs. Why tf are they ripping apart BLM to do a rework NOBODY WANTS while healers are bordeline cosmetic in most content?
RDM: "Wait, I'll help you!"
RDM: *dualcasts verraise just as the WHM's rez hardcast is 98% complete*
Also RDM: *was so busy helping that they ate the big boss attack and are now dead*
I admit I've been that kind of RDM before back when I was still a noob. Probably made a handful of healers secretly angry at me
