I am so frustrated with the SWTOR community. The DPS players whine and moan on the official forums saying they dont want Duel Specs in the game, but then have the nerve to post tons of threads about the lack of healers. Well guess what enjoy your lack of healers it looks good on you all. Im a Healer and I refuse to do flash points and heres why.
Since we dont have Duel Spec (Talent Spec ... ***NOT ADVANCED SPEC***) That means I cant level as quickly or as easly as a DPS, So why should I as a Healer spend money and time into respeccing when I want to Quest and then spend more money and time to respecc back to Healer just to heal in a flash point.
There are so many selfish people who want to lock us healers and tanks into only 1 roll cause they fear that if we have the choice of doing both that thier wont be any tanks or healers which isnt the case at all in WoW I was a Priest I used my Duel spec to allow me to play Shadow while questing or PvP then would talent spec to Healer for Raids and Dungeons, Duel Spec gives Healers and Tanks more flexability to do other tasks other then just tanking and healing.
You DPS will never understand my pain being a healer trying to quests with a mindless companion, while your blowing past me like lightning speed because you can nuke everything with chain lightning ect ect ect.
So with that said since I cannot force you too feel my dread, I as a healer because of all your whining and moaning am officially on strike from healing. I encourage all healers to do the same why should be be forced to pay just to keep the same pace as those who would never and will never respec into tanking or healing themselves.
let the DPS do the flash points themselves see how well they do without tanks and or healers, then we will see if they still think not having a duel spec is a good idea.
I know not everyone will do this but I hope some do, Cause on Iron Citidal the second largest server in SWTOR flash point are like a barren waste land, Lack of Duel Spec equalls healers leveling as DPS...
