@Asros @WatcherDev can't balance around that

James McDonald ‏@Absnthminded Mar 7

@WatcherDev reduce the amount of spells, healing done, and add cool downs to most spells.

Brian Waggoner ‏@Asros Mar 7

@Absnthminded @WatcherDev No, but you can do things to help alleviate it. Design means nothing if your players get frustrated and dont play

Tony Golightly ‏@Moltari Mar 7

@WatcherDev @CM_Lore I've switched from druid to monk healing; been ridiculed for making that choice as they seem weak, changes coming?

Emily Joy Bembeneck ‏@adarel Mar 7

@WatcherDev True, but early Cata healing where heals felt powerless is the opposite extreme. Also sub-optimal.

ZorClone ‏@ZorClone Mar 8

@WatcherDev Seeing is believing, your words mean zilch until proven in the wild of any chances, could very well end up as cata mark3

Watcher ‏@WatcherDev Mar 8

@ZorClone Yep, that's the risk with any change. We want to fix a problem, but we could make things worse. We'll be watching closely.

J.Michael Montgomery ‏@BloodElfBoy Mar 10

@WatcherDev @Asros So, we're going from "Whack-A-Mole" to "Chess"? That sounds like a horrible move as far as "fun" is concerned.

Watcher ‏@WatcherDev Mar 10

@BloodElfBoy Can't there be a middle ground?

Rafael Estevam ‏@rafaestevam Mar 10

@WatcherDev seems it was just me who enjoyed to heal during early cata? H-dungeons' mechanics, deal with oom, cc and interrupt? shaman pov

Watcher ‏@WatcherDev Mar 10

@rafaestevam You weren't the only one; but many more found it frustrating. We're aiming to satisfy both groups this time around.

Morrighan ‏@CaerMorrighan Mar 10

@BloodElfBoy @WatcherDev @Asros I find chess healing far more fun than whack-a-mole healing. Fun is subjective.

J.Michael Montgomery ‏@BloodElfBoy Mar 10

@WatcherDev I would LOVE some middle ground. Chess in Mythic Raiding, Whack-A-Mole in Raidfinder, and some middle ground inbetween?

J.Michael Montgomery ‏@BloodElfBoy Mar 10

@CaerMorrighan Problem with "Chess" style: it's miserable in Raidfinder and BGs.

arlockmango ‏@arlockmango Mar 10

@rafaestevam @WatcherDev I had a lot of fun as well, was easier and made others mistakes more obvious. The pacing was more casual as well.

arlockmango ‏@arlockmango Mar 10

@BloodElfBoy @WatcherDev @Asros You make it sound like WoW is turning into FF.Wanting blanket 5x1 rotations is another matter and not twitch

Aeta StormrageEU ‏@bench333 Mar 11

@BloodElfBoy @WatcherDev @Asros Chess has near-unlimited variety involving billions of outcomes, Whack-A-Mole has no variety except speed.

Aeta StormrageEU ‏@bench333 Mar 11

@BloodElfBoy @WatcherDev @Asros So unless your idea of "fun" is almost no variety and endless repetition, then I'd disagree.

J.Michael Montgomery ‏@BloodElfBoy Mar 11

@bench333 Sex has almost no variety, and endless repetition, yet lots of people think it's more fun than Chess.

J.Michael Montgomery ‏@BloodElfBoy Mar 11

@arlockmango @WatcherDev @Asros Not at all. It's already tough to find good heals. Making that role MORE difficult just means fewer healers.
