Cross healing is ridiculous

Just logged onto my Sniper to check that out, and you are wrong FB has a 35m range with a 5m AOE which makes it's actual effective range 40m. Considering all other classes have a 10m range on Stuns, and FB isn't a Stun, it's a Mezz as it breaks on damage, I still don't see a big problem with it. Comparing it to as Stun and saying it needs it's range reduced, is like comparing Lift/Whirlwind the same way, with the only difference being FB is instant and Lift/Whirlwind have a cast time. Although I do think that Advanced Targeting needs to have it's tooltip updated, as it states that it sets FB and Distraction to a 30m range.

Wrong on most accounts for various reasons, now if you specified specs on some of them they would make sense, such as increasing the cool down on debilitate for healers but not concealment/lethality, and if you even tried to lower the mitigation on carnage marauders you'd be taking one of the worse classes in the game and making them worse.

Seriously? Nothing happens when you don't make it happen. If people are fight but no one is making headway is not "nothing's happening" you just are not making things happen. Unless they have 8 healers on their team so all of them free cast it is not a healer problem its a teamwork issue.

Wrong, no. Right on all counts bro.

Trying to argue that marauders are "squishy" is pretty amusing tho. They are close to the top of the list in survivability to damage ratio. There is only 1 spec that out does it and it's a jug spec. Bad marauders who can't push their defensive cool down buttons at the appropriate time are squishy.

^This... Taking a healer out of the fight is more important then killing him. Insta stuns helped facilitate that as long as someone didn't break it and fill the resolve bar.

I believe healing is fine as is except mercs/comms need either a new quick cast or slight increase in their healing to stay competitive with other healers.

Plenty of DPS classes can regularly hit for 5-7k. The average player has 26k health, do the math and see how long you would last without a healer. Now times that x 8 cause that is what a healer has to deal with.

Take away the cross heal then add the boss immunity shield that once you've been attacked only that person can kill all melee are knocked back and down and all range is reflected then healers won't need to keep other healers up as once they have been attacked they only need to worry about that 1 person trying to kill them all others would kill themselves trying.

So then someone drops an aoe and hit 3 targets now he is the only one who can kill those three and leaves 2 players twidling their thumbs cause they can't attack anyone without hurting themselves.

Seriously.

It's not an every warzone experience, but it's 1-4 times a day at least (Of course, I may play more warzones than the average player.) How you haven't experienced this is beyond me if you've actually done your fair share of pugs and rateds. Good healers, especially three of them, can cover easily. Puddle+Op HoT is godmode for Maras/Sents.

What in the world are you talking about?

That has more to do with the node capping mechanism in most warzones than healing.

Eh, both. They could change node mechanics or nerf healing. Either would fix the problem. The example from the other night though, nobody got further than 2 seconds of node capping that I saw. I think I used predation more in that fight than I did all weekend.

I'd agree that snipers are the cure to any healer, but the only problem is that operative/smuggler healers can use their dodge power to avoid all damage from an ambush.

The pull ability from vanguards and powertechs I've found to be most annoying.
