Everyone playing this game should feel like a force to be reckoned with. A quote comes to mind... "If everyone is special, then no one is"

A healer is an individual who heals others by definition. can you plx espalin fur the sloe how DPS is not "an action towards another by definition"?

And why a healer should NOT under any circumstance be able to do a damn thing about it without a "team" to support them. I just LOL'ed... need fresh pants. I understand the frustration of dps'ers pre 1.2, but, come on... If were going to be realistic, lets be realistic. I could bring up the name MMO and argue that there is no such thing as a solo class, but I wont. I understand the point you are trying to make. Where is the motivation? Saying 1 healer shouldn't be able to handle (by that I mean survive) 1 dps'er is like saying a tank shouldn't be able to handle a raid boss. Healers and DPS'ers can work the same (solo vs team by your words) when taken in greater context. Why can't a healer widdle you down with a lightsaber (I'm just assuming a force user here... bear with me guys) while keeping himself alive? Is a DPS'er really a solo class against 3 or 4 people, or does he also need that healer? Basically what your brightly colored words suggest:: Your a healer? *** were you thinking? Food For Thought.

I haven't played on my Sage (Drey) very much since the update so I don't think I've run across you since you've spec'd DPS. However I do remember playing against you as a healer and you were formidable, but when I would finally get my team to pay attention and focus fire you, you would go down. I'm not sure if this was you or not Drizzle, but I remember one match of Alderaan Civil War where I was guarding our left turret and you came over and me and you got in a death match for at least 5 minutes and it basically turned into a wet noodle fight until others came...lol I was on "Drey".

Haha ya I don't think I've run across you this patch yet. Now that HSM doesn't double stack it might not be as ridiculous but the last few days Forbes and I have been crushing pub premades regularly. Real sad that their healers just don't make a difference. Countless Warzones now where healer teams are losing to non healer teams. Anyway I'll look out for you now Drey, and good luck man!

I have never seen an mmo classify their healers that way. If they did, I'm sure it would be the end of the game in short order because nobody would ever play a healer. It seems that after 1.2 this is the case, however, I would really like to hear an explanation of the class from BW directly.

Healing requires skill and teamplay now, try it.
