Healers are much more balanced in this patch.

In 1.1.5 it was very frustrating trying to kill a healer 1v1 when they just brush you off like you're not even doing anything to them. It was so one sided that I would run away from them if it was a 1v1 because it would of turned into a 30 minute battle.

Please stop posting misinformation. I dont know if youre just ignorant, childish, or trolling, but your anecdotal evidence is clearly counter to EVERYONE elses.

I like how you ignored that im full BM too and called me a pver. Only reason i pved was because pve gear used to be >> pvp for pvping.

I really hope youre on Daragon Trail. I would love to destroy your healer and literally show you how wrong and dumb youre being. Ultimately though youre just wrong and more than likely just main a dps noob who is trolling.

I saw you were BM too. You were rude so I was too.

Is your evidence anything but anecdotal as well? All I see is "OMG IM GETTING KILLED WHAAAAA"

sounds like QQ, not real evidence that there is anything wrong.

Any time I ever ended up with even 3 healers on the same team, it usually ended up a loss.

That composition lacked the DPS to get enemies down quick enough to take objectives/kill ball carriers.

Ding ding ding we have a winnar!!!

Anyone who thinks heals is fine is either a liar or a premade only player who runs with guard and cries in vent for his buddies ti save him constantly.

I have yet to see a healer in any amount of gear who can survive my dps 1v1, and not only am i only in 700 expertise, ive been using modified healing gear from prepatch that didnt update all the expertise because of enhancement changes.

What is wrong with crying for help? You know your team is supposed to help you, and switching guard to you is one of the best possible ways.

No, the guy you quoted is right. I have an operative healer that is around valor 80, a couple of WH pieces. If you are having trouble as an Operative healer, it is likely a self-inflicted weakness. Your team is either being outgeared, or you are being outplayed. My operative isn't immortal (no healer should be), but outside of some Pyro's that get a few lucky crits, nobody that isn't as good as me or better is able to kill me.

I am sorry but I have to disagree with you there. Not a lot of players play healers because it's a playstyle that does not appeal to everyone regardless if they class may actually be or perceived as over powered. Lets be honest, pre 1.2 healers were a bit insane. God forbid they had guard on em by a tank. Trust me I know because I play a tank and always find a healer to guard if I can. Ever seen a healer tank combo hold off 5 players for 5mins straight? I have done it.

Now don't get me wrong, they went a bit overboard and the numbers need to be tweaked some but don't act like healers weren't OP pre 1.2

I am not sure why people continue in these posts. Its quite clear Bioware doesn't give a crap. They either ignore us completely, or they can't read. I am thinking a bit of both. I can swear or insult someone, and the post is read and removed immediately. Yet the community screams for weeks on end about these patch issues, and devs are no where to be found.

I am now to the point, that if I resub, I am an idiot. Would you pay for a burger if Mcdonalds crapped on it, and then forced it on you?

Only 3 days left on sub, and I can leave this stressful piece of junk game behind me. If I didnt have so many friends still barely hanging on in game, I would have ditched the day I read 1.2 patch notes.

Have fun in your 12 year old ADD zergfest...
Support your local healers. Boycott the Patch 1.2 Healing Nerfs. Make it clear to the Devs that their idea of "balance" is unacceptable. Unsubscribe Today

Of course bioware doesnt give a crap about QQ on the forums. Why should they when people in-game are having a good time. How many people that enjoy a patch come on the forums to say "Hey Bioware, good job?"...nobody does that, they are too busy enjoying the game.
