I run a Sage healer, well did, and prior to 1.2 I could deal with the attention. With 1.2 I melt when I get out into the field, the DPS burst is just insane right now and healers don't stand much of a chance. On my server I am about the only healer, and the server is heavy imperial. So when we roll into a WZ the Imperial side recognizes my name, Ace'Bandage.... A couple Marauders jump my face and explode me, then go back to exploding everything else. At that point I switch to my Imperial characters and go call them "meany faces" or something childish to make myself feel better.

Lets be honest, nerf are the perfect excuse to sucking. I mean as a Marauder if I sucked, I would feel REALLY bad, ya know using the "OP" class and still sucking.... But if I make a sorc and I suck, then i can blame it on the nerfs!! THANKS BIOWARE

I will say it again, DPS gets NO benefit from expertise because of mitigation while healers still get +12% at full BM. This alone proves you dont have a clue. So, with my 1158 expertise. Your telling me that my 22% damage increase, and 18% reduction are equal? Do think time to kill isnt affected? And several other relating factors arent also playing into your silly ideas? Everything just balances out to zero? Aside from a bonus to healers? Expertise changes in the patch only serve to widen the gap, and create disparity between healing and damage. You should stop trying to enlighten people with misinformation...

All I see here is healers whining they can't eliminate the effectiveness of 2-4 dps specs in a warzone allowing their team to automatically have a huge advantage...with the biggest advantage going to the team with most healers (up to 8). Yes pre 1.2 patch 8 healers > any other combo outside of a more skilled 8 healers. You can "argue" that they wouldn't have enough dps to kill anything for an offensive...but you'd be wrong. 8 healers means an invincible team (literally unkillable) meaning they can slowly dish out numbers (that wouldn't be healed by the enemy team). On top of this most pvp maps revolve around DEFENSIVE strategies and not offensive: look at huttball, the guy who can stay alive is the best ball carrier; look at alderaan, the guys who don't die make sure no one caps their points permanently; look at voidstar, you'll never ever break the first door against 8 healers meaning they can only at WORST tie you or win (impossible to lose). It needed fixed. What happened? Healing got a slap on the wrist and is still beast. So now instead of 1 healer eliminating the effectiveness of 2-4 dps specs it eliminates 1-3, and now we see a bunch of players who are used to being hercules in the warzone capable of fighting 4 men dying to 2 or 3 really good dps freaking out they "can't do anything anymore." Inevitably they will make the argument "think of how YOU won't get heals because we'll all quit" and an estimated 40% will buy that argument, however the intelligent ones know its just a bs ploy to ensure their class+spec combo is better than any of the others.

Its all you have seen, cause your blind to reality. You should ask god not to nerf your ability to think properly.
