RotHC // 2.0 : Healing - It's ridiculous.

But you can mindlessly heal

HoTs and instant heal alone isn't enough to keep up against respectable DPS

Honestly most Op I see don't bother casting spells with a casting time when a good melee is on them because they know it's just going to get interrupted anyway, and having a spell interrupted at 1.9/2.0 is usually worse than not casting it at all, as if they didn't cast that they can usually sneak in another free instant heal or another HoT on someone else instead of doing nothing. There's a reason why Diagnoistic Scan is cast pretty often because they know nobody will interrupt that (and if it's interrupted then you cast your real heals) so at least you get some healing done instead of risking none.

This:

And this:

Pvp balance decisions shouldn't be made based on what pugs can and cannot do. A bunch of Rambos running around just smashing and pew-pewing are probably going to have some difficulty with healers. Does this mean healers are OP? No. But it does mean you are going to have to use some strategy and team coordination, though. But in all honesty, even pug groups made up of a good amount of skilled players can handle healers, despite the extra disadvantage of not having real team coordination.

^ Oh and saying something like this is a really good way to lose credibility and make people lol. I think Alba already briefly pointed out the hilarity of this statement, but just for good measure: If you're a scoundrel healer and you don't use underworld medicine and kolto pack... lol is you. If you're playing a scoundrel healer and you don't interrupt his underworld medicine casts... lol is you.

Ive already tried explaining this^ to this thread, it seems half of the peeps in here just don't get it.

It must be HARD to kill an op who only uses HOTS and instant heals :|

Jeez.

No, maybe you don't get it.

What are you doing, while casting instant spells? Yeah, you're mostly running around / away. You can easily take advantage of LoS etc.

Your 2 HoT's heal for ~ 2,5-3k combined - that's a good amount for doing nothing, isn't it?

It's not enough to counter competent DPS.

Fact.

You're obviously a bad.

And you are obviously a healer who is enjoying the insane healing situation right now... and a troll.

And what does this insulting help? Nothing.

It IS enough to counter competent DPS if you can play. Sorry, but I can do that with my OP and I am just 47 and haven't got Scamper...

What about trying to discuss in an acceptable way regarding the topic of the whole thread?

No, you're bad.

Competent DPS have no problem rooting/slowing me to prevent me from losing.
The tools are there, more people should learn to use them.

L2play.
