Disc priests are still bis in 2s. Disc priests are still ultra good in 3s (according to AWC). We will not discuss disc priests in solo shuffle. AWC is finished, let’s give them a week to see if they need to monitor more or they’ll do some actual stuff. By the way, swapping to keys is the solution indeed!
Discs and Hpals = god tiers
Monk and Dragons= entry level but not nerarly god tier
Rdruids, Rshams, Holythers = Obsolete healers for us game feels 3vs4
Than people wonder why que time is 50minutes, because people who not play god tiers are sick of being cannon meat for meta.
At this point we saw every healer in awc iirc but Rsham, this is insane nothing is being done even though Rsham need a complete rework not just random %.
I saw Rdruid one game,. even comentator comented how it is poor choice and they lost game due weakness of Rdruid class, Rdruid simply cannot stand versus might of hpals and discs, its like you come into arena pit with butter knife versus heavenly angel with world destroyer sword in hands… game exactly feels 3 vs 4…
What is wrong with Resto Shaman is, that it’s completely working around Reactive Warding. It’s not fun to constantly refresh it time to time as it does more healing than Riptide. Why you would ever press Riptide? Well keeping up the Ancestor, which in my eyes is the worst design i’ve seen in this game.
The other build is better but require people to actually stand in totem, which they don’t.
Major issue of rsham is you need to much cast while other healer don’t, people run away from earthen even with relocation talent, and your totem are getting os by people.
Also link getting is instant and require you to jump in the mid map to get value from it but then get cleaved/cc to oblivion.
i don’t mind casting as resto Shaman but the downside is the tierset. So people spam dispel Tidal Waves which makes Shaman lose a lot more mana. That makes it tedious.
Pres was doing well but only when combined with outlaw and boomie. So 2 big sources of cc.
Until they came up against disc again, and it was destroyed
I’ve said it before, but healers which need to cast a lot ( druid, shaman, h priest and pres) are at a huge disadvantage. Hpal, disc and now monk are basically relying on instas for the bulk of their healing.
They need to up the heal of casted heals dramatically to compensate, or lower instas/shields.
