A summary of healer issues

[Katish]

Something like a hitbox reduction implies that players may lose uptime during a mechanic that they previously didn't, creating imbalances

Ah, thats what you meant. Well I kind of agree with you but at the same time I don't, hitbox expansion is one of the sole reasons this is meleewalker...and it's hard to balance around that because the end of the day question is should ranged be able to do as much damage as melee, with the hitboxes as they are I'd argue yes or at least close enough. That would be the decrepency in damage. I'd rather them increase melee potency during burst phase and lower the hitbox range as it makes moving a little more difficult and actually starts differianting dps (and of course I'd want less homogenizing but that is a pipe dream). Now that doesn't mean I want hitboxes to be impossible of course there is an extreme to everything but that is not what I'm advocating for.
