    Healer Stacking in Bgs

    Seriously, stop it. Once you have 6 healers in a 10 man group it's no longer fun. Full duration WSG where literally nothing happened. Just 2 teams holding flags one not having enough DPS to kill the enemy FC (Horde - my team) and the other(Alliance) was unable to kill the enemy FC cause it turns out spam healing can beat the damage debuff of the FC.

    Seriously, picking lint from my bellybutton is more interesting than healer stack BGs.

    Here's a phenomenon I noticed in random Battlegrounds: Many times when there's one healer on my team sometimes he changes to his dps spec. But when we have 3 + you have 2 more going from their dps to their healing spec.

    Healing has been idiotified since TBC, systematically. But now I feel that we are at a point where bads (and there are many of those) don't think they are able to do their job (which they can in fact) without at least 2 other healers to support them.

    On the Alliance side I'm running into so many healers I can kill by myself (not talking about crap geared ones),which I shouldn't be able to do. They just sit there, and cast long casts and I have a great ol time interrupting and silencing them and eventually killing them and I'm not some Hardcore pro.

    So yeah, please, less healers for less boring games.

    get a rogue and and something that can move people (knockbacks, dk mass grip, ursols vortex) and any amount of healers wont be enough to save someone with 10 stacks of flag debuff.

    again, 9 healers and a guardian druid very easily countered if your team has a brain, one smoke bomb gorefiends combo with 6 DPS and the druid's toast.

    Right. Assuming we are talking about an organised team and not the typical randoms where you can consider yourself really lucky if all your team members are human players (not bots).

    you cornballs are really having fun in bgs where you might as well be afk or botting? is this what wow is in 2014?

    Another fine example of healer stacking mentality - Arathi Basin. 5 Alliance healers at the mines while every other base is in the Horde's hands and the rest of their team unable to get past the starting gate due to the Horde farming them like corn. The funny thing is that while I didn't join from the start I saw that the score was pretty close and by the end some guy got the "Overcome 500 resources" achievement so they must have had a proper advantage at first, before the healers decided to start spamming each other.
