Live Letter Response to Current Healer Accuracy Issues

[Ghishlain]

Live Letter Q&A can be found here. Healer Accuracy answer (quoted below) is the first question answered in the digest.

Q: Healers seem to miss their attacks quite frequently in dungeons released in Patch 3.2. Do you have plans to adjust healer accuracy?

A: When it comes to dungeons, our original plan was that healers should be be able to hit the monsters without worrying too much about accuracy, so we’ll make adjustment to this so you don’t need to worry as much about it.

As for raids, we don’t want to create instances where healers are forced to deal damage, but we understand some groups use this in their raid strategy and therefore have their members meld gear with accuracy.

We’re currently debating within the debating with the dv. team regarding accuracy, so please wait a bit longer. .

Hopefully we get more insight and specifics from the Dev team before 3.3 hits the table.

A: Dungeons were created with the idea that your attacks would land on monsters without having to worry about accuracy. However, the accuracy requirements for the dungeons added in Patch 3.2 were set somewhat high. We're planning to reduce these requirements in an upcoming patch. As I've mentioned in the past, our plan is to avoid adding accuracy on healer equipment wherever possible, but we're aware there are many healers who would like to do damage while playing. We'll keep this in mind as we discuss accuracy requirements in the future.
