It’s the newest class… they are going to be a little overpowered ey? Check the Preservation players list of survivability and mobility spells. Any healer can tank 5 players in a random battleground if they are fully epic, ench and gemmed agains’t players in greens and blues.
Also take into consideration that healers are fewer in number the dps, which means in order to make healing a little more… attractive per say they need to be stronger. If you have a full team fight in mid without healers you are not going to have anywhere near as much fun as with one of who healers in mid.
If he was back peddling he was probably just having some fun with friends or trolling as an overgeared Preserve!!
if 5 player can’t kill a 1 evoker heal it’s because those 5 player don’t know how to proprely control
I still see player burst on renewing blaze, stun me when i am on defensive CD etc
Yea DR play a lot and there’s 5 player that can ruin the rotation
But bring 1 mortal wound , 1 interrupt burst stun the evoker die with 3 players
It just depend on who you are with
Also on blitz 1 dps sitting on healer is enought due to the healer oblige to use GCD on himself instead of his allies
If 5 player on 1 healer and healer don’t die well switch to 1 dps and you will see the dps die so you free healer and healer can dispell the evoker and the evoker will fall very easely
(because yes mortal wound and dispell are important on battlegrounds, not like on arena where you can just sit doing doing and wait enought dampening and call it a win)
Btw everytime i hear “healer need dampening in BG” i know it’s a arena player that never played RBG
Can confirm this happen a lot, I pop Cd after Cd one at a time and people still tries to kill me with no results, the main reason why healers are ‘good’ is simply because DPS don’t respect their own timing and enemy CDs, it’s very simple you don’t just sit on an healer you need to switch to another target whilst finding a way to either interrupt or CC the healer.
if a healer heal 60% per GCD on himself , that it take 50% gcd or 35% per gcd that don’t mean squat to him
However a dps that take 25% per gcd and the healer that take 25% per gcd trust me the healer is oblige to let someone die
Either the healer is alive or the dps is alive, generaly end up dps dead and the healer remain alone while he no longer have cooldown because he tried to save both and die way faster.
i invite you to heal, it help a lot to see how to kill them
Don’t mind me Aryash, I’m only a 1.8 rbg healer but honestly you CC the healer in order to suppress it along with your teammates in order to kill something
Doubt it since I got other things to do so I’m just gonna keep it simple and aim for 2.4 for the mean time, I struggle to understand why rating is so important for a discussion when the topic is about not being able to kill a healer.
Season is just around the corner and literally no one has their tier sets and conquest gear yet. If you form a premade you’ll have a higher chance of dealing with healers either by killing it or as I mentioned, you suppress it by stuning/fear/incapacitation etc.
As a devastation evoker I had no problem in dealing with them like I have mentioned above. If you don’t kill it, cc it instead in which I am certain that you know this but your friendlies may not because I get these awkward situations where sometimes you just don’t kill a healer due to lack of coordination.
Anyways, hope this helps you and wish you a good season ahead of you in whichever bracket you will perform.
Just a suggestion Aryash, but if you don’t want to read opinions from people with lower ratings, maybe in future posts, it would help if you said that, e.g. I only want to hear from people who have 2400 and above in DF. Something like that may stop people wasting their time in here. It would also stop the chances of you getting frustrated.
it cant be any other way because random bgs are aimed at everyone from john fresh off the launcher to someone with congealed sweat on their face from not showering for 10 years.
i play a ton of healer in random bgs and you’re often tasked with solo healing 14 other players and yourself all of whom have low gear. the only way to do this is to make healers insanely powerful. at the same time, a new player who heals will just get mauled anyway, so putting dampening on them is nerfing someone who is already performing poorly.
the problem you’re encountering right now is that bgs are filled almost entirely with gearcapped players from comp stomp who are also in a premade together. in this scenario yes it’ll turn into a mana war, but in every other situation possible and starting from season 1 onwards, the average healer will be in liquid bad word gear and do zero healing.
if winning is your goal, just go do objectives. healers cant be everywhere. if mindless killing is your goal, go farm people who are doing objectives. i have had no problem mowing people down on my warrior and mm hunter, while on my shaman i often can tank 5 players at a node in seething shore yes, but we lose the game anyway because my dps can’t win objectives 9v5.
Honestly, I still don’t understand why I was being toxic? Can you please explain? You said five of you were struggling to kill a healer. I said that from my experience it is possible for five people to kill a healer. I also suggested watching someone like BobyDK to see how they do it. I honestly didn’t mean to offend, I thought it was potentially useful advice.
I’m not sure how this is toxic?
And my suggestion was just a polite one. If you don’t value feedback / comments / suggestions from people who are lower MMR, then you could eliminate most of it by just asking for feedback from higher MMR players.
he knows how to kill a healer. he is not happy that right now killing a healer is like peeling an onion where you have to get through 7 defensives while they press 1 heal every 4 seconds and undo most of your damage.
you were intentionally or unintentionally patronising him by giving him advice akin to “make sure your monitor is turned on” - he is a gladiator player as you can see from clicking his character. its pretty safe to say he knows how to kill a healer, his issue is the effort required to kill them.
but honestly you CC the healer in order to suppress it along with your teammates in order to kill something
