As a healer how do you feel about the duo-heal meta?

  • To be honest, I hate it. It may sound 'Elitest' but if you cant solo heal DF or SS, you need to practice, I will always prefer having a normal T\3xDPS\H team. A lot of people don't mind it because they get almost the same DPS, but more DPS is more DPS. Its a bit insulting to have a team want a 2nd healer.
  • If you cannot solo heal a dungeon, then you are not an effective or skilled healer.

    Both Healer kits are capable of healing all content, and this has been the case since the game began. The only arguable exception would be original KNHM.

    Time to get good, frens.

    In the case of priests, people usually want a mystic along because our MP regen is [filtered], and for the crit aura. Legitimate reasons, IMO. If it were only about the healing, I'd feel insulted too, but it's not.

    Maybe not so much of a request after this patch, though, if the priest MP buff is noticeable.

    Yeah no one wants to run with a solo priest anymore.
  • you do realize that solo M parties get a priest buff b4 entering dungeon................

    Well not like that will happen anymore with the new patch, since they are making it so that the priest must stay in the party to keep the buff
  • u r less stressful if u know another healer can res u

    pretty much eliminated the benefit of duo heal imo

    DPS high enough don't have that many mana problems regardless of healer now.
    Then again right now not concerned bout DPS since I don't know all these dungeons

    Priest buff is noticable.

    Never have I mana charged for so much in my entire life.

    Oops double post.
  • Seems to be unfair in LKHM that the mystic can Corruption Ring the leash-before-shield while the priest can't.

    What if you're solo healing LKHM on a priest, you get leashed, and all of your members are melee? Stupid new pots can't outheal 20k/s death area DOT in the middle.

    I mean, I could solo heal LKHM just fine with a priest, it's just that it would be less of a stress getting a mystic to back your [filtered] up in case things get messy (eg. getting leashed on shield phase).

    Then tell a DPS or the tank to take it instead of you.

    GS does not work.

    Oh, you can tell who takes the leash? I just thought it was random. How do you tell?
