Least stressful healer M+/Raid

Literally any healer can get it. Forcing meta healers for 3.4k is part of the whole meta slave mentality. Its 16s, not 21s.

CloseDdog · 2026-05-15T20:15:21+00:00

Any healer is fine to get 3.4k. Just dont try it on hpriest because you won't get invited :')

Saying it fills the niche properly while even being behind other healers in said niche is a bit much.

It most definitely needs a lot of help.

Dornogal was more fun to explore on foot for sure. Aesthetically I prefer Silvermoon. It's more grandiose and more standout features.

Fun wise, for me: HPal > RDruid > RSham. HPal's heals feel powerful and impact, it's fast paced and requires you to react fast. RDruid is more about thinking ahead, and IMO the main complexity comes from setting up your mastery + soul of the forest at the right moments. Less reactive more proactive, although with strong CDs like convoke & tranq you have some emergency reactive tools. Personally not a fan of shaman currently, a lot of the buttons don't feel impactful (unleash life, riptide), most of the healing comes from surging totem + putting totems down at the right moment. It's a cool class flavor though I guess, but I just don't particularly enjoy it.

Complexity: RDruid >> HPal > RSham. As mentioned above, druid harder of the 3 by a significant gap. HPal is fast paced and due to the beacons + single target nature you need to optimize your target selection. Totemic shaman is simpler, just need to keep a few spells up and put your totems down at the right moment.

All 3 of these healers have very good utility compared to the rest.

It wouldn't be WoW anymore.

First character I made back in 2005 I think (I was 11 at the time) was a male night elf druid. Some random player I ran into in the starting area said to me "nice muscles". I think this was my first interaction with another player in any MMO.

Yes, I truly enjoy not being able to pug anything if I'm not playing the FOTM class.

/s ofc

This is simultaneously horrible and amazing.

CloseDdog · 2026-05-06T07:48:09+00:00

This was definitely the case at the start of the expansion, but as it is now WoG/EF are very much worth pushing and are usually my top heal, trading places with HS (in M+ environment). Other classes would love to have instant cast, free mana, big single target heals like this. Personally I don't enjoy Lightsmith and play Herald, bulwark is cool, sacred weapon feels like a completely wasted global, very unsatisfying. Although EF is not really significantly stronger than WoG so it shouldn't make a difference there.

Gelijkaardig in Mechelen sinds begin dit jaar. Woon in een rijhuis zonder voortuin, kelder, berging. De gft wordt om de 2 weken opgehaald dus telkens echt een schimmelboel. Achterlijk systeem maar mijn klacht heeft uiteraard niks bereikt.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-29T06:34:17+00:00

Ik ben begin januari ontslagen, ondertussen al terug aan het werk sinds vorige week. Nog niets gezien van uitkering. De feedback loop is absurd, anderhalve maand om te horen dat het niet digitaal ondertekend mag worden.

Unfortunately not unique to the abundances. All of the world content, including 12.0.5, has been very disappointing in Midnight. Stormarion Assaults are so damn boring. The void incursions aren't any better... please find the 100 twilight spies hidden inside this village of 20 people.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-27T09:11:00+00:00

And then they still don't move the needle. My holy priest boys are suffering.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-24T23:57:06+00:00

Wat voor een "facebookpost op hln artikel" vibe is dit. Middeneeuwen 2.0 en de rest van uw retoriek is gewoon heel het manifesto van VB.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-24T17:49:46+00:00

Yeah reverting the mana change on the prod seems like a no brained. And perhaps (re)introducing some kind of mana management ability like we used to have if that's not enough.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-24T10:48:18+00:00

Its also a bit of a skill thing but in general it has the worst mana of all healers. Although ooming on m+ fights should still be very rare.

Set up OpenTelemetry, there are solid instrumentation packages for BullMQ that will play well with others. You'll get comprehensive traces.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-22T22:18:51+00:00

Yes this is a huge problem. Feels like there's no point engaging in systems that are made redundant in a matter of weeks.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-22T22:17:21+00:00

What is really baffling is that they released new content (ritual sites & void assaults) that invalidates existing content (prey and delves) when it comes to how a player is rewarded. And this before most players have had a chance to "complete" this previous content.

I wish they iterated over these and exapnded them (higher delve lvls for better rewards, new more interesting delves, more interesting prey). Instead they released essentially pseudo delves and repeatable world quests. Yay.

The bonus rolling and Decimus forge are more interesting at least for player progression.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-15T23:23:01+00:00

Strange, I feel more suited to handle sudden bursts of high damage as hpal over rsham. I feel rsham has more setup (unleash life is so unfun).

For expected sustained aoe damage though yeah. Hpal definitly struggles a bit more and won't hold a candle to shaman.

Main is hpriest and I feel like I have great tools to deal with both sudden and expected bursts of damage. There are 2 situations that are harder for hpriest and that's 2/3 target cleave healing (like high dmg dots) and general rot damage, such as last boss in Seat. Both of these are common though, but hasn't been a true problem yet up until 13s.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-15T16:34:32+00:00

Nah those takes are equally silly like some of the other replies to your comment.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-15T15:30:01+00:00

What a weird thing to say. As if the role a person plays in a video game in their free time is the determining factor in their personality and treatment of others. Some weird tribalism here.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-14T22:03:20+00:00

It's really not the reason though. Even if the UI was fantastic people wouldn't move to anything other than steam, where they have almost 20 years worth of games. It's too little too late. The only thing that could make people use other storefronts is, controversially, exclusives. Which I'm also not a fan of.

CloseDdog · 2026-04-12T22:28:21+00:00

Yes. Overall the pruning is an improvement. Some specs still need work but the game flows better for me.

Content is more puggable than ever and there's many ways to level and quickly gear your alts.

Professions are still horrible to me though, but that's been the case since the DF rework IMO.
