I see I have defeated you since you succumb to trying to bash me rather than make sense, or prove your point with clarity. I am saying healing needs to be buffed and healers survival ability should be higher in 1 on 1 situations. Enjoy your day sir. I wish you the best.
You clearly lack skill. I'll leave it at that. Are there people who can beat me 1v1? Sure, but I'll beat people 1v1 9/10 times. I'm ok with those odds.

Have you played as a healer in this game and done pvp?

I believe you are just posting your emotions and not game related experiences. I think you should re-evaluate what your 'real' experiences have been. Maybe drink a cup of tea or eat your favorite desert, then come back and make a factual believable statement.

As I said, enjoy your day.

Anyway, I was just responding to the people QQing about it sucking as a healer. While I don't feel immortal like I did in WoW, I certainly feel strong enough to pull my weight. And if you aren't level 50 yet you probably won't have a good pvp experience, but that's expected. It's generally good to hit max level and get some entry level gear before QQing about your role being underpowered.

There is definitely a problem.
Uuh, get tanks that use more than 1 button. Taunts help greatly, so does guard. Most decent tanks will love protecting you, since it means they live longer.

You also need to stop standing there trying to tank a DPS or two beating on you, it's not gonna happen. CC them, stealth, LoS, run towards a friendly zerg.

Since the day after hitting 50 I've been pvping as operative heals. I do 1.5-3x more healing than the highest damage any game I'm not whoring damage. If that isn't powerful enough then well...idk what you guys want.

TBH my biggest problem has been when a good tank gets on my *** and doesn't let me cast. The tank won't kill me but it really prevents me from healing others.

Yet again another post that just chooses to ignore the main point of the argument - you shouldn't need someone else to make you viable 1v1. No one is talking about how we should be able to obliterate DPS while staying at full HP or survive against 2+ DPS forever. If you've had ANY experience pvp healing in this game, you would realize that healing only prolongs your death. With the strength of DPS, cc and gap closers available in this game, any attempt to outheal any kind of DPS is going to result in you dying.

1v1, full hp, equivalent gear, comparable skill, if a dps jumps on you, you will die before he/she does, that is all...which is why I switched to DPS and throw heals in emergencies.
