Thread: 3.2 Patch Notes

Reading all this kinda makes me scared to level my bard any further. It sounds FAR too complicated, even if I have no plans to go for anything harder than the regular instances I need for the MSQ.

A Healer that fails to heal and causes either a wipe or partial wipe slows down the group progress.

And a healer that has spare time to jump around while the rest of the party fights is just plain annoying lol.

This thread as of the last 3 pages:

Why is the title of this thread the 3.2 patch notes, I thought this thread about was bard songs and healer dps

I agree, I am sorry that I contributed to this derailing - same thing on the bard topic and on Senpai (lol). Let's get back to the 3.2 notes, but first I want to reply to Arkenne.

Yes, with you doing DPS as a healer you speed things up, but, if you aren't DPSing as a healer don't think of it as "slowing things down", because you are still doing your job as a healer. Not DPSing as a Healer but neither letting people die is a middleground.

Its not mediocrity for a healer to want to heal. Tho I have to agree that if the Healer is plenty skillful at healing already, jumping out of their comfort zone in order to DPS would be pretty welcome.

I think you misunderstood my post. I was replying to a statement that said a Healer not dpsing vs dpsing won't slow down the run. I was correcting in that a healer not DPSing relative to DPSing is slowing down the run. I was not saying blindly a healer not DPSing is slowing down the run. I am using the terms in a relative context here to correct someone who made an illogical statement.

Its not mediocrity for a healer to want to heal.

In that I disagree. And to clarify, mediocre is not the same thing as sucking. I am not saying healers who don't DPS are bad, they just are not good. They are mediocre.

Sorry, won't digress more either, but sadly we didn't get to an agreement :/
Best regards!!

Just realized something about the novice hall, which we might have to wait until Tuesday for the answer. In the example shown, the challenge is to avoid aoe. If you stun a move, would that still count?
