“Anyone else think the perfect group is three hunters, healer and tank? Hunter guys got amazing DPS, best CC in the game, awesome kiting abilities, and they barely have to worry about standing in the fire/cleaves/dragonbreath. Hell, these gu…”

“Hi hi all you healers, I would like your opnions on a matter. With all the recent changes, I am having difficulty deciding on which kind of tank I want to play. I've always loved tanking, and Have a Paladin, Druid, and now a Warrior Tank. M…”

“So I have just started running heroics, the druid is pull right and left, no CC and I am doing my best to keep everyone up. I try to drink between pulls but the group runs ahead and the druid keeps pulling and I have to run up and barely ma…”

“Healing is broken in Cataclysm, please fix... that is all. Also I love when I step into a BG and can't even heal through a shadow priest dot. I am sure every other healer in the game will also agree with this. There is no point to do heroic…”

“You're just stupid. I'm glad we cleared this up.”

“Can these both proc at the same time? I've been trying to watch and pay attention, but I haven't noticed them going off at the same time.”

“Are you more likely to heal these DPS?”

“My bank is full. Yup In the middle of HoO and it won't let me drink cause apparently my bank is full :(”

“Even after downloading and using the latest version of healbot, I still get LUA errors popping up while I play (very annoying). A guildie told me there is a way to stop them from popping up, but had forgotten how. Does anyone know how I can…”

“There are a lot of QQ threads about how Blizz should fix healing. Healing is fine, in fact, I'd wager in many cases YOU'RE fine. It seems universally that the QQ's refer to LFD PuGs, and more specifically about communication. An important p…”

“Let me start off by saying I've played my druid as resto throughout WotLK and quite enjoyed it. In WotLK, the resto druid had a well defined role, a versatile toolkit, and great synergy among its spells. I just recently finished leveling my…”

“First off, this isn't about the new healing paradigm or druid number balance. Those are different issues for different threads. I wanted to bring up what I see as some fairly major QoL and mechanical issues for Restoration Druids that I've …”

“We've all had them, the dps who comes in wearing blues and greens, probably gemmed wrong, definitely specced wrong, pulls awful numbers, doesn't know the boss fights, pulls aggro because they're not attacking skull, runs into extra mob pack…”

“Hey guys, I have always liked healing and hear its a pain now which is the main reason i want to go holy now for some fun. Right now im prot/ret and my ret is useless so i was hoping to get some advice on what stats and gems we should have …”

“I was considering specing Holy at 85, I have healed as a Shaman and Priest before and I was just going to ask a few questions: 1. Is it fun? 2. What stats are important for in this newfangled expansion? 3. Any good Holy Pally guides exist y…”

“I never have bothered, until just now. Guy had no gems in his slots. No enchants. A couple WOLK purples. I'm not knowledgable about plate tank stats, but his gear looked more DPS than I would expect, unless tanks stack Agility? Anyways, dun…”

“I have filled up my entire macro menu with mouseovers. Now I have no room left for macros. Make mouseovers built in. I am pretty sure all healers use it. Period. http://imgur.com/xBddi.jpg”

“Hymn of Hope is a little annoying and too powerful at the moment since it not only restores your mana and increases your maximum mana pool but it also restores the mana of other casters. The reason this needs to be a self mana regeneration …”

“I hate healing i'm going to delete my account make healing fun again Its not that its too hard its that its no fun please make healing fun again NOT ENOUGH MANA OOM ALL THE TIME”

“The druid tank starts chain pulling right out of the gate. We wipe. Druid rages. Can't kick him. He's got guild buddies with him. I leave. The war DPS has 38K and the "Kingslayer" title to match. He's consistantly two-shotted. He rages at m…”

“Im going to say the obvious,healers need more powerful spells! as we all know about every 2-5 levels no matter our spec we get more powerful versions of our abilities from our trainers,well now weve become more gear dependent as blizzard br…”

“Unless you prearrange it, of course. Tanks are supposed to be in charge of directing mobs to where they need them. Nine times out of ten, you are screwing something up. Even when it seems like you are helping (the tank is standing in someth…”

“Hey just wondering if there were any mods I should pick up for healing. I just went holy about four days ago after three years of ret and 2 years of prot. My alt is a rogue and a lock so I'm a bit out of my comfort zone while healing. I'm m…”

“I was wondering how much spirit one should stock up to heal heroics. I'm at 1140 something-ish right now and I've had no problems in regs (although I haven't tried the 84 dungeouns yet, ahah) But I was hoping to plan out my gear early. I've…”

“Healer que time for me is about 2-4 min average now. :) All these healers quitting/respeccing is making us rare again.”

“Blizzard make heriocs easier. It's nearly impossible to do them with a pugged group. They're extremely easy for coordinated guild groups as I've done almost all of them on my Hunter but with my Priest I've had to resort to using the dungeon…”

“I got exulted w/ ramkahen and since i already did not have the plate bonus, i picked up [Desert Walker Sandals] and quickly added a +40 haste gem because i had one on hand. then, one i got [Guildmaster's Greaves] i added a +40 intel gem to …”

“I've given up healing on the Druid (my former main) cause it seems unnatural atm. I've switched to holy priest and am doing much better albeit I haven't been in heroics yet (almost scared to seeing all the horror stories, plus i'm nowhere n…”

“hi so ive goten my item lvl to 330 so i can do heroics forged my gear spec holy and went to my first heroic(SFK) wipe on first boss 5 times party failed then went to HOO wipe on first boss 4 times and got kicked anyone tell me what im doing…”

“so the pain of leveling all 4 of my healers to 85 is still going...lol, so far i got my shaman to 85 and now i cant decide to either level my >druid or priest< next... Which one is easier to heal with at 85 heroics? I'm a little sketchy wit…”

“OK So here goes short and sweet. I like that Blizz is making us work to heal now! What I don't like is that they have taken away a very important tool to get it done. Mana! Actually they have given a lot more of it but it doesnt go nearly a…”

“I play alt toons also, Rog, Ret Pally ...Im noticing healers conserving so tightly on thier mana, DPS is not getting ANY heals, so there is such a thing as this "conservation" swinging to far to the left ...Blizz game mechanics has Heals to…”

“Just a fun thread pondering about alternative talent specs. Cata is still new so we're free to defy the cookie cutters! :-) Feral Swiftness http://www.wowhead.com/spell=24866 This is a fantastic talent for PvE positioning. Moving rapidly to…”

“Was in a dungeon (H-DeadMines) and the healer asked "Why do you keep coming out of cat form? I've seen a few feral's doing that lately". I told him I was using my instant proc's to caste HT on myself (~10k heal, but every little bit right?)…”

“As dirty as that sounds, I'm going to ignore it and pretend like all of you will as well. Before I set off the troll alert, I'm just going to say "I'm not very good." I've accepted this fact, you don't need to tell me, though I'm sure some …”

“I joined a Heroic Vortex Pinnacle group in progress (yeah, I know) and they were on the first boss. They were going over strategy and the tank said something to the effect of "We need to do this because this healer isn't geared" I was like …”

“Since im enhance i have dabbled in resto lately and found it pretty fun, but also kind of lacking, though it is dynamic. What are some simplish healing classes/specs that a beginner could excel at? I have had my eye on druid resto and think…”

“ok guyz ever since patch 4.0. ive been having some lag issues, but only in dungeons, first i take 5 minutes to log into the game, however at this point there is no lag whatsoever in the game world(i never get any while in bgs or in the game…”

“Heal needs to be 1 second faster cast time. Drop mana costs of PW: Shield and Penance. Buff Disc Priest mastery stat. Well, yep, that sums it up for me. Disc Healer throughout Wrath, I never succombed to the lure of shield spam. I tried bal…”

“I am trying to make a macro so i can have judgment (to get back mana) and Crusader Strike (to get a charge of Holy Power) on a single button. I tried the usual: /cast Judgement /cast Crusader Strike BUT!!! CS has a shorter cooldown than Jud…”

“With the newest patch I find myself becoming more and more frustrated with this class. It's getting harder and harder to pin-point what Blizzard's intentions are for this class... I, myself, and confused. To begin, the mana cost of each of …”

“Shamanistic rage should be made to a base ability. Remove the 20% reduction from elemental mastery and make it a base spell for Rest it will be equal to barkskin, to ele it will serve as elemental mastery and for Enh, well they already have…”

“i ran out of mana, i tried to use HEAL on the tank and it just was not good enough for him, only flash heal looked good too bad i could cast it 3-4x and i was definitely left w/ 20k mana out of 70 ive never left a regular dungeon in my life…”

“So I made a priest the other day and as soon as I hit level 15 I started healing (disc) dungeons. Everything went fine through Ragefire Chasm, Deadmines, and Wailing Caverns. My next group was on Lord Godfrey when I joined and were complain…”

“Heals arn't broken, random dungeon finder enlistees are. I can heal just fine so long as people are on point with their awareness. Healing the tank is cake on most boss fights, but when DPS start stepping in stuff they arn't supposed to or …”

“I was running the vortex pinnacle and we were up to the second boss with no wipes or any problems at all. It was a guild group from Mannoroth except for me, and all of a sudden I am kicked from the group. Now I usually do not go to other se…”

“Being an officer in my guild and a healer myself, not only have I had issues with healing in Cataclysm, but I've come across a lot of guild mates feeling very down on themselves because of how difficult healing has been. Here's some suggest…”

“In case any blues read this thread, it's not a gripe about the current state of healing. I actually find the challenge quite enjoyable. With good technique I can be mana efficient in many fights, but not all. As a result, a stack of good wa…”

“In my opinion, i find the resto druid mastery, as far as our secondary stats the least beneficial. I am currently reforging all master for haste and most crit for haste as well. I was just wondering if anyone else had any other opinions as …”
