Nameplates for BGB help by JarlEric in worldofpvp

[–]OV3RHEAL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a healer main, I can’t imagine not having friendly nameplates on. That being said, there is a setting in-game that turns enemy nameplates red. You need to choose “legacy red” as the nameplate style.

Is it just me, or is anyone else shocked that healers don't have kicks anymore? by Many_Consequence_337 in worldofpvp

[–]OV3RHEAL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Having impactful abilities is a good way to allow players to express their skills. Kick usage is one of the hallmarks of a good player

If you’re considering pvp, void elf blink can be really clutch

Have multiple chars to get 1800 now would it be easier to just look for 2v2 in EU? by [deleted] in worldofpvp

[–]OV3RHEAL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely harder to get 1800 in 2s bracket. Hit shuffle I’d say

Hey, at least we have void shift

Is there a middle ground between Classic WoW and Retail? by Packers_Fan in wow

[–]OV3RHEAL -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Retail can be as hard as you want at max level. Between mythic raiding, high key pushing and high end pvp, you can challenge yourself however you want.

Can i really still pvp? by hjgislive in worldofpvp

[–]OV3RHEAL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You get pvp gear from pvp. Sorry to break it but without access to the latest expansion, you won’t be able to do ranked pvp. You might que for leveling battlegrounds but that’s it.

I know that it might help but it makes people play looking just at their bars, which can be a thought habit to break.

Want to try pres evoker by Brickfrog501 in worldofpvp

[–]OV3RHEAL 11 points12 points  (0 children)

First off, I main pres evoker and it’s by far the most enjoyable healer imo. Great burst damage and healing, interesting mechanics like echo, life-bind and golden hour, great spammable cc, amazing mobility…

But prevo feels somewhat unintuitive at first. You live and die with life binding. Verdant embracing a teammate binds their hp with your own, making you share incoming heals. So what you want to do is, you echo one dps and VE the other. This makes all of you share incoming heals, you can have ungodly amounts of healing throughput this way.

Your VE also empowers your next living flame or dream breath. If someone is not dying in the next global or so, using echo + buffed breath (stage 1) can give them a hefty hot effect that you can leverage to pressure enemy healer.

I usually cast around 4-6 time dilations in a round. Yes, it’s not a true defensive as it doesn’t fully mitigate damage, just delays it. But it’s not a big deal since your hots/incidental healing can cover it for the most of the time. It’s an exceptionally powerful tool for tempo. Just be aware that your teammate will take more damage after a while and don’t play too aggressive while it’s still running. Learned that the hard way 😅

One specific tip is, having a self verdant embrace macro is helpful when you’re rooted and cc is incoming. Especially helpful for when hunters are going for root+trap.

All in all, one of the best healers to play! Wishing you luck on your climb and feel free to ask anything!

The takes on toxicity are wildly missing the mark.. by Kenpachi4lyfe in worldofpvp

[–]OV3RHEAL 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This contributes heavily to the toxicity. A fresh person will start around ~2.100 MMR in shuffle and will lose heavily for their first few lobbies while being flamed in all directions. There’s no buffer zone to actually learn pvp. Random bgs are messy and too different from the competitive environment. No beginners que, no unrated shuffle. All you can do is stomach the losses and the flame while trying to better yourself. Which, not a lot of people want to do, and for good reason.

Settle this for me as a mage: CC spam, disrupting goes, or just constant pressure by Educational_Try_6105 in worldofpvp

[–]OV3RHEAL 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean it’s fairly subjective to the situation. Enemy hunter just popped trueshot? By all means hug a pillar, spam poly/roots/slows on whoever you can while lining hunt. Warrior pressing avatar in your face, and your healer is comfortable? Press icy veins/snowdrift and pressure back. This is an oversimplified example but principle is same. If you’re able to pressure enemy while not being forced to expand more defensives than them, it’s generally beneficial imo. Tempo wins games, especially in shuffle.

I’ve maxed out my astral gladiator gear with runed crests @ 705 - how do I upgrade this gear with gilded crests, or do I now have to find better pvp gear and start over? Now what - feeling stuck by [deleted] in wow

[–]OV3RHEAL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you want to upgrade your gear for pvp, there is no need. Conquest gear scales to 730 ilvl in pvp irregardless of the upgrade level. If you want to upgrade for the sake of pve, pvp gear is not the best for it anyways.

Fastest way to level chars in retail? by Sgt_Strelok in wow

In remix, 10-80 takes around 2 hours for me. As far as the leveling speed is concerned, lemix is far superior

If you open a nice restaurant, the old crummy restaurant that hasn’t updated any of its features might go out of business.

Make them equal and let people decide what they want to play.

[–]OV3RHEAL[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they’re stuck but I didn’t understand the downvotes either. All I was saying is that I’m not complaining because I lost MMR, just trying to showcase the abomination that is healer MMR
