Can't heal stupid that healers use to avoid blame. I've soloed healed everything with nature and sorcery except BDE lb, and every death that wasn't from skull or npc reflect is my fault. I don't try to use a dps standing close or not blocking as an excuse, but guess that's just me
Try solo healing BDE LB with DPS standing over dead bodies and standing right next to BH. If I dont have enough power and I see the troller struggling I dont blame the troll. In any 5-1-1-1 setup I dont blame myself or the troller if someone went down because the burn offset should have prevented that. I find it hard to believe if a DPS dies from standing in an AOE or constantly getting smacked from the boss's haymakers is the healers fault.
Yes, but the devs are not doing anything to change easy content, hell, the next raid is easier than BP, and its the ending of the war of the light dlc that started years ago, but they are going to fix the powers, people just have to wait, complaining about something thats going to be fixed doesn't helps, its the same as pvp, its going to be fixed soon, but there are threads of complains and videos in youtube, and its because the changes are already on test. Eletric and nature are going to be the last, bad? Yes, but its needed to not have further issues.
Eletric is a awesome healer, yes, but celest and nature have some advantages, power back (nature), consagrated ground/big area of healing ( celest).
then you my friend are dumb lol sure some cases it may be your fault but 90% of the time on USPS its not its idiots getting side by side the tank thinking they are still safe. expecting healers and tanks to work miracles.
Power management and power range is what electric suffers from the most. It takes alot of skill to be an electric healer. However Electric doesnt have the skill = reward that other classes have.
DOT based powers, as they are now, can not compete with burst damage and struggle more in all content. Electric is not performing at all like you suggest. Nowhere no how, does not happen. Electric needs a boss fight with massive health and a ton of adds to even come close to competing. Get a 148 dps electric toon and see if anyone will let you solo dps DCn/e or DPn/e. Not gonna happen! You do not see electric dps in end game content and there is a reason for that, it sucks. In fact, I have not seen very many healers in end game as well. Most healers are celestial and nature. I have 148/147 Earth, Sorcery, Quantum and Electric toons. All crit for over 100k except for Electric, it crits for about 1/4 that. The DOTs need to be increased to equal the burst or Electric and Nature need to be switched to burst based.
I have numerous times soloed dpr(e) with my electric dps 146 cr and below took a little longer but still 0 wipes and was faster than some runs with the op powers. As I said it needs some minor tweaks but I pray it never becomes like the other powers of 1234. As is it's one of the most fun powers out there because there is variety. Also lets be honest a good 80% of the player base switched to earth ice sorcery or atomic with another big chunk mental quantum and gadgets. So there are many powers you'll rarely run into
I find it funny nothing is never the support roles fault. I have never on the forums seen a support role say anything were there fault. On the forums all the support is A1
Wait, you've seen a dps admit fault? Than you sir have seen a unicorn, i hope you got a screenshot Fwiw, you're over simplifying the term, it's more so a phrase used to describe 'that guy' who's repeatedly taking avoidable 1 shots and doesn't seem to learn that he can't do that and survive. And just for your peace of mind, I'm a heal by trade and yes, I make mistakes
I have an electric toon 146 heal, 147 dps. I do not have any issue with the heals. For me it's just as good as other heal powers, the only problem I see is the slow DoT in dps role. Aside that i'll say it's top tier
Idc whether a scorecard stays or goes, however I will say that running group content should be more about cooperation over competition. Lol, your only competition should be the npc's that you are there to destroy. I see far too many dps holding onto the tanks shirt tail blindly running through their rotations ignoring every other aspect of the instance, only to blame the healer when they are killed by a nasty AoE or one shot mechanic. A little friendly competition is all well and fine as long as it doesn't outweigh cooperation.
I agree w you 100%. I love healing on both my nature and electric toons. I don't mind the DoT loadouts at all on high health npc's (they could buff the tick slightly though), however imo the addition of a interaction type 1234 am would really be helpful for small content (solo/duo). I feel that this addition would greatly help level the playing field. Heck as far as a 1234 am goes they could keep the power interactions mainly the same and just give Voltaic Bolt/Harvest a larger burst hit w power refund, idk. Atm I have reverted to running the good ol' weapon mastery loadouts for small content, but would excitedly welcome a 1234 boom type am. Nature and electric are two powers I really enjoy, however I do agree with most that they could be shown a little love.
Rage, HL, Nature, and electric all have it bad for dps any raid in end game. When you see a shout for dps for "X" raid you know not to apply. You are basically a support role and part of a dying dps power set. Nature and electric have it worst. Those powers don't even perform well in solo or duo's. All of these power desperately need a damage increase, which was stated to be easy to do via a hot fix, rather than let them just sit and wait a year for a revamp.
