    People in this game are trained to think the shields are harder for some reason but they are just genuinly better for literally every piece of content if you want to run a healer
    Depends. For casual content shield healing can be harder, because it benefits hugely from fight knowledge and anticipating damage. Regen healers are much better at recovering from mistakes. In a hardcore setting they become way better as you have better coordination and planning for mechanics.

    I agree with most of the people in here about the game's difficulty. We don't need an easy mode, that'll just take dev time away from improvements that this game actually desperately needs.

    The thing is you don’t need to anticipate damage to have raidwides hurt less on a shield healer

    “If cast press bubble” already makes everything easier than a regen healer

    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
