Now peeps may say they love healers but that is only true when they are getting some thing from them. i.e. buffs and heals etc. Other than that, they don&#39;t get any love. Yes I agree it is a two way street you keep me alive and I&#39;ll keep you alive, it is the perfect symbiotic relationship. <br /><br />9 times out of 10 in AV, dps leave you to your own demise (plz don&#39;t flame replies and site the exceptions when we all know its true). In AV when you healing the group you might as well put a neon sign on your head saying attack me, you pull more agro than 10 prot warriors in a raid. I recall one idiot saying in bg chat &quot;we don&#39;t need healers in the bg get out&quot; (I dismissed him as a noob). In WSG the side with the healer normally wins, if both have a few healers, it&#39;s a toss up. The survivability of the entire group goes up ten fold, with a healer on your side (I do mean a healer which is healing).<br /><br />Groups that hand their healers to the &quot;wolves&quot; don&#39;t normally survive and over the years it has become my belief why healers don&#39;t do more healing in bg&#39;s and it is through arrangements made with tanks or dps like the story above that they do. since then I have leveled 6 more 80&#39;s (lock, hunter, DK, druid, mage and shamie with 3 more lowbies between lvl30 and 40)<br /><br />I was on my hunter in AB and to my surprise a healer wanted to back me while the 2 of us took LM, there was a feral druid, dest lock and a warrior protecting the flag. I thought we were done for sure but what the hell. I knew the lock was setting me up for crazy burst damage so he was my main focus I put my pet on him and poured everything I had in to the lock while the warrior went to town on my head, pouring out all kinds of hurt on me, the druid went for my healer. I was surprised I was still a live. Once the lock went down, the other two followed soon after that. By the time we got to cap the flag, they had already rezed, with us both on a third of our mana, we rinsed and repeated and destroyed them again. <br /><br />The healer turns to me and said that was amazing dps. I replied no that was amazing healing. The truth of the matter is with out heals you&#39;re toast. Simple as that. If you are out numbered by a large amount, you are going down, if you have no healer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1306058079346645855.post-32154735333200213982009-11-08T04:30:16.129-07:002009-11-08T04:30:16.129-07:00About 4 years ago when i started playing wow, My first toon was a holy priest spec for healing criting 11k GH&#39;s (back then she was a 70).

RIGHT ON on the Nefrs, and Heals!! I think they should have a new talent for healer that allows them to intervene automatically when we get too low in HP - Call it &quot;Saving Angel&quot; or &quot;Carnage Continues&quot;Aqusboomhttp://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Nagrand&n=Aqusboomnoreply@blogger.com
