This is nice an all for 5 mans but i wish they would look at 10 man hard modes
its like it was all designed for 25 man then they went "oh crap 10 man hard modes uhhh screw it just wing it"
guild is probably going to have to bring 3 tanks to Halfus Hardmode my sub runs out today and its not going back up

Obviously GC thinks you just need to give it some more time and you will see the hallelujah! that WoW healing has really become.
And maybe this 15% bonus to your spells will help! Please!
In the meantime, the raid content and heroic raid content of this tier has already been cleared, with THIS healing. But the complainers must be right, there's something wrong with healing. Possibly that it requires more skill and thinking now than the button mashing fest it was in WotLK?
Nobody is suggesting that the encounters are impossible with the new healing model. What people are saying is that the new healing model isn't fun. There's a difference.
Also, if you're into hard mode encounters, ask your healers how different Cata healing really is. The encounters are about massive aoe damage that needs to be burst healed. Triage only exists in 5 mans and some normal mode encounters. Outside of that it's the same old WotLK spam fest but healers are weaker than they've ever been.
Don't take my word for it though, here's a whole thread on it

This, and I preemptively edited a bit before Korrigan chimes in with, "well my raid healers absolutely LOVE it like this." Because it simply isn't true for the majority of healers excepting maybe Shaman from my experience with most players. Which incidentally isn't the same core group repeatedly.
Lastly, Korrigan, obviously something's off if they're giving people a 15% buff. I'm betting you they're not liking the dive in queue times, and people are raising hell about it. But continue to believe we do not have a point if you want. I bet you they'll continue to hedge on this issue though - because there really is a problem. Whether you see it or not doesn't really matter. We're not going to stop complaining if we're not enjoying ourselves because Korrigan says we're wrong.

It truly astounds me that anyone bothers to answer idiotic statements with anything but ridicule.
Why do you guys waste your time so?

A nerf to the difficulty of heroics?
I was only off by a few days.

Thanks, but it's been fun
Five more minutes then I'm done!
I've been saying that to myself since

To be fair, the reason why so many healers "quit" is because the ilevel allowing players into a heroic was set too low. 5 random people all wearing ilevel 329-335 gear can make an easy dungeon into a nightmare. That same dungeon, with people wearing the same gear, can be quite easy when it's guildies in vent who know the encounters. The reason so many are finding cata heroics so hard is because bads were used to being carried thru wotlk hearoics by overgeared players.

You dont even need to wear the gear. Just buy some RvR 339 gear and keep it in your inventory and youll meet the heroic reqs.

Oh yes there is a reason - and that reason is that the PUG scrubs, incapable of anything looking like teamwork and "not standing in fire", still complain about the difficulty of heroics. Note that I don't mind the 15% buff, I'm always running with a guild group so we can keep on enjoying the content as it was intended on our alts.
I largely prefer that solution to a global nerf of all bosses, making them as dumb as those in WotLK. At least this change doesn't affect everybody, and if it makes some people happy... *shrug* I couldn't care less, as long as it doesn't affect my enjoyment, which is enjoying those bosses when they still present some challenge.

THIS.
And to make those scrubs happy, Blizzard gives them "artificial overgearing" in the form of a +15% buff.

Spooky's actually right, there's no sense in responding to someone whose only argument consists of equal parts petty snide remarks and haughty snobbish superiority over a video game with anything other than complete ridicule.
