Shaman is now the worst healer

Change my mind. :smiley:

Shaman has great utility and this 50% flat trait nerf is actually a buff to his survivability but unfortunately his healing suffers now. In tanky comp or one with a lot offhealing it might work like Druid before 8.1.

Blood Dk is worse :upside_down_face:

i dont think they are bad at all just some mana problems.

The reason why you think Restoration Shaman is now the worst healer is because you’ve forgotten one healer. That’s very common and many players tend to do that. It’s almost a meme these days to pretend it doesn’t exist, because it has such a long-standing history of being the worst healer by a huge margin.

Holy Priest.

I played on 2,6k mmr with a Holy priest in 2s.

That’s great! It’s anecdotal though. I mean, Holy Priests are a rare sight - not because they’re so overpowered that few people even dare touch them - but because they’re viewed as the little brother of Discipline Priests.

I kind of feel like you’re selling Restoration Shamans short if you’re making the claim that Holy Priest is now totally up there with all the other healers and Restoration Shaman is in the gutter!

But I’m not sure if it’s possible to change your mind on this topic. My experience with the forums is that people are typically rather stubborn in regards to their opinions! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

H priest may work in really heavy spellcleave like Ele/Destro/H priest or Fire/Destro/H priest or Frost/Boomy/H priest. You need two specs that you cannot leave on freecast and that have a lot of peels/offheals for you. If they are forced to go on lock or mage then it’s easy for H priest to keep that target up.

True.

For clarification. If anyone has advice on how to deal with the nerfs and stuff i would be more than thankfull. It’s not for me as i don’t play resto but both my mates are complaining how sht it is and they go oom in like minutes and heal in damp is really awful.
