    Inc Healing Ignorance

    Alright knowing that instance healing will not be a mechanic where everyone needs to be topped off to survive and doing so will actually be a bad thing, There are going to be a lot of Dps health bars with less than full health. Also take into account at least 50% of the Warcraft population does not pay attention to patches or update notes. My question is this: How many months do you think we as healers will be yelled at with "Heal me damn it!" or "wtf Heals!"? Admit it, you know this is coming!

    OT, yes I can imagine stupid DPSers whichng about no heals. They do it alredy when I do randoms, I often leave everyone of half hp while I DPS stuff. They won't die, why should i waste combat time healing them when I could kill the boss faster?

    Also, I liked your old avatar better kel ='[

    I'm still confused about this whole "nobody is going to be topped off" thing. How are they gonna manage that? If someone's low, you heal them...they don't get healed to full? Or is blizz just going to put a shitstorm of AOE damage in every dungeon/raid?

    They've said health of dps and healers would increase a lot and at the same time they'll nerf mana regen... Basically, we just won't be able to get someone to 100% health with one spell like we do now, kinda sorta.

    Re: Inc Healing Ignorance

    Of coarse I read party chat. I'm healing a random. Have to do something to entertain myself. As for Kel's avatar, the flying shroom just isn't as well known as the Elf. What if Spiritus took off the NE Tier guys?

    I do! just not in combat. But the last person to say "Heal me bitch!" was in Naxx and still feels the wrath of that. Renew ticks after combat while I drink for mana will fix that. If not, they can deal with it.

    Also, I liked your old avatar better kel ='[
    This one had a sense of humor, because my raid did a Facebook style app of "These are your friends" to Mario. I was listed as the Clumsy One, with Toadette. I just laughed. I want to change it back, but it's hard to do from an iTouch, now that my PC imploded

    So basically we have to spend our mana more wisely? Doesn't sound too hard to me.

    Am I stupid for not understanding?
    You can tell WoW changed the MMO for good when players started complaining about the amount of time they sink, into a time sink.

    My interpretation of this meant that it isn't as urgent to heal people to full immediately. Take for example the 3.3 heroics, there are a lot of group damage situations in there where if you don't top everybody off in a few seconds, people are going to drop.

    Some times people are not worried about what they are walking into
    Some times people look down at gum they stepped in.

    So they're...making healing easier by not requiring people to be topped off quickly? Heh...

    Standing in something isn't the only way you can die, so you can stop referencing that now.

    It's not too hard, but that's not what the OP was asking. Since we have to manage our mana better, there will be times when we let someones health slip a little (not enough to let them die mind you) to do a "better" heal.

    Alot of DPS though are used to the current, "everyone's at 100% health all the time" system, and will throw a fit if their health drops to 60-70%. The question is, how long before those people realize that it doesn't work like that anymore?

    Personally I've never had this happen. I tend to DPS as a healer if I ever run a Heroic, and sometimes peoples' HP has dropped considerably, yet I've never received a complaint from anyone.
