Ya, but on top of changing the flavor they didn't tell you to start eating your cereal with a fork, too. You still have the spoon.



whom eats ceareal with a fork?

Reading the entire thread may help you with this. Novel idea, I know.

i read it all.

i used to heal in wow.

since closed beta.

deep into the cataclysm....

yes i can still do it, prob as well or better than most.

but it is STILL now a pita.

not as much because the healing mechanics are so difficult, but the "other" players, that don't heal, never healed, or have much idea what it entails now, are what makes it such a pita now.

name still fits.

i suspect you may even be one of them.


jeez korrgan much....lol@anger....

The healing changes are 1 of the 2 big reasons I quit WoW. (the other being my account getting hacked less than 48 hours after having my authenticator removed since my phone died...)Healing is just terrible now. It is not fun, it is frustrating and just painful. This is coming from someone who loved to heal.

Well put. I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that you (and the vast majority of long-time MMORPG healers) *can* do it. That's not the question to me, and that's great that many people "have gotten used to it".


I was fun, they made it not fun. So many people go do something that is more fun. Other role(s) or other game(s).


Was a HUGE change imo.

Okay, so the issue isn't whether you all are able to do it, it's that the current way it's implemented just isn't fun?

Did they change the core mechanics of it that much?

All the healers I know, myself included, which is well over 50 from my guild and others, absolutely hate healing now.



I stopped playing due to the changes. The changes don't hurt me, it just hurts other people who want to do dungeons in a timely manner.

The core mechanics of healing were gutted and rebuilt.When my heals do maybe 10-20% more than they did in WOTLK, but cost 4 to 5 times as much to cast, on a tank with at least triple the (non 30% ICC buff) HP at minimum, it is just a joke now, and not the easy joke, but the, it takes 3/4th or more of my mana bar to heal a tank to full from near 0 and fewer AOE heals but the DPS is taking more AOE damage despite not standing in the fire..
