Even Shaman is doing more DPS than us in high m+. I wouldn’t be shocked to see MW out dps us soon too. Needs to change.
disc has no aoe to pad the numbers
guess the problem is if they add something it would break the healing as well.
Buffing ST dmg to pad overall dmg would probably make it broken vs bosses or priority targets
Make Holy Nova stronger, very simple
at this point you need to buff holy nova by 500% haha
Seems like Disco is in a decent spot based on the numbers shown for M+:

The days of Disco bringing bringing damage as their main draw is over. Now it also brings more than decent healing. It can’t have a lead in both. So now, it is mid in both. All healers basically are.
This is because healers are no longer pure healers anymore, it is also about damage and utility. So if a class does not bring any damage, it will not be brought for the higher end.
As the game left the days of disco is the DPS healer behind, as all healers are DPS healers, you can not expect a high mitigation healer also to bring a high healing or DPS lead. Indeed you end up where they currently stand.
High-top in every aspect needed. If you need some proof of gameplay possibilites and viability, feel free to check out:

by that, holy should do 100k dps as it brings absolutely nothing to the table hehe
MW does a ton of dmg on large pulls! It can do strong healing by spinning on its faeline, so it never stops spinning
The problem with Disc isn’t so much that it can’t or can compete: it’s the fact that disc has a 13 step rotation just to do mediocre dmg / healing, which just scares people off. Disc literally has half the playerbase of the “worst” healer (mistweaver) in the game, and that’s not because its so bloody amazing as you make it out to be
If the spec playstyle doesn’t fit the player, the player should look somewhere else. I already laid out data and a source to show that disco isn’t in a bad spot at all.
Popularity doesn’t mean the spec functions as intended or not. It just mean the majority doesn’t like the style. That is fine. Different strokes for different folks. You can’t please everyone with the same thing. By trying to please everyone, you will leave out someone.
Let the Discos that thrive and enjoy what it is, as it is, play it as it is. We others that don’t enjoy it can go and play another class/spec. As long Disco can perform and does perform to top notch tier gameplay then all is good in the hood. It currently does just that and honestly, that is amazing.
I can outdps a Disc 13 button rotation by pressing 1 button (fire breath).
Mad priests? XD
Nah mate, the fact that 2.5% of the playerbase plays disc means it just doesn’t work intrinsically. The fact that despite the spec being an outdated mess of a healer some elite players can make it work is amazing for them, but doesn’t mean that the spec is fine or doesn’t need an overhaul
Different strokes for different folks. As I said.
Again, that’s only true if the underlying gameplay and functions of a spec are working in the modern environment, Disc isn’t currently, and hasn’t been properly working for at least the last expansion. “different strokes for different folks” means I can just have warriors do 50% of everyone else’s DPS, except for 5-10 elite players, and it’ll be fine, right? by your own words that’d be absolutely normal and balanced… go back to your own forum
If warrior was like that, sure - I would accept that to be true and real.
Kind of like how I accept that UDK works that way.
