PvP Healing is Imbalanced

As an Assault Specialist Spec Commando, I kinda feel the pain that the OP is talking about. There are many times I have seen 2 other people along with myself beating on a well geared Mercenary only to have them out heal our dps. Especially since alot of mine are dot based and the ability to finish cooldown on high impact bolt with charged shot. I generally have no trouble with BH's or Sorc healers. But against Mercenaries, it is always tough especially with their 2 cc's they get. But I do think alot of the others are right and that he is doing it wrong too. In most warzones, I will go directly after a healer first just to disrupt them from healing other players. I am even making a list of the Imp healers on my server so it makes it easier to figure out who the healers are quickly.

Ill give you a hint gear difference. I would say slight opnes of healers is caused by expertise favoring healers. 100dps at 10% expertise is still 100 dps vs equaly geared player. 100hps at 10% expertise is 110hps vs anyone. This causes snow ball effect on healers stacking unless dps is high enough to alpha target.
I suspect that trauma value was balanced around 0 expertise players if it wasnt some value pulled out of a... by someone developing pvp.

I don't agree. It's the other way around.


Equal Base values, or relative percentages "seem" out of order. But you assume HPS and DPS is equal which is not the case.

It's more like 150DPS + 10% VS (100HPS+10%+10%Defense).

From my personal expirience it get's worse with higher expertise because when you factor in Buffs, the base value of DPS is even more favored.

Low base Value of Defence doesn't add up as much as healing and DPS does either.

15% Expertise stim is less for 100HPS than 15% on top of 150DPS.


Expertise favors DPS not Heal.

The reason most high Expertise Healers start to survive is their HP pool get's big enough to survive bursts. In the end, Expertise + larger HP Pool is what shifts the free kill status of healers to though cookies.

And DPS despite getting stronger need to start thinking and use different tactics than just to chain cc and burst initially.

You explain what I said some posts ago...

MARAUDER complaining about how OP healing is in this game is the punchline of a Joke.

and that proves what?

All i saw is the big red DEFEAT. I'm impressed you were able to hide behind a pillar and heal yourself for nearly 1m. NICE job.

No one else caught this? There were two healers healing. So one healer was targeted and healing when he could, while another was free to cast. You assumed wrong my friend. If you had CC'd the commando and focused on the other healer, once he dropped you would have taken out the commando no problem.

6k heal crit? I've never see that high of a number. 30% heal debuff in pvp is the reason... You have 7 other players on your team.... use them.... If healing is so pivotal, then reroll a healer and stop the crying... I for one get frustrated as a healer when my team sucks too... But I dont come on the forums and post about it....

FYI.... You cant get those numbers by healing just yourself.... Its only by spamming salvation (aoe heal) with most of the team being in range of it, and every other heal you have the whole match.... Nice try though with the trolling Krionic...
