Rest Druids need a absorption shield

[Naix]

Resto Druids right now are in a very very bad place for PVP. Other healing classes get a type of shield when healing but druids. Yes Druids get strong HOTs but burst damage is not allowing HOTs to work properly. So why not add an absorption shield from a heal crit or some other mechanic.

[Kiva]

Druids? Strong HoT's?

We playing the same game?

Man I didn't even realize people still played resto

[Ultima]

One vote for each choice. They call that balance.

[Caiada]

No. We call that unnecessary homogenization, and it's a boring solution to a general problem.

[personn5]

What shield do shaman have that Isn't a self absorb?

I don't know about you, but I'd be giddy with joy if they added this.

You have trolled pretty much every thread I have seen you in.
But a shield would depend on a proc maybe replace a shield for living seed and make it absorb a certain amount if you crit.

I think that's what Rdruids should have. Just a self shield.

Of course, they'd have to do it from something more or less unique... Maybe a glyph added to Nourish, since they stole it.

Pre-hotting is like shields for Resto Druids, so no, they don't. Homogenization FTL.

They DO need something to counter hardswaps though, like multi-blooming, or an (instant) heal that actually heals for a decent amount.

Also, 20k Regrowth crits aren't funny when Paladins top 70k all the time and Shamans even reach 100k Heals.... (And no, HT and Nourish aren't viable)

Earth Shield kinda does this, in it's own way.

Make a new ability in resto that would transfer all of one person's hots to another like soul swap

[highlandr]

I was thinking something on the lines of fixing what we have already. Two things I notice we lack is a castable aoe heal and a "life boom" detonate spell. It would work just like the mushroom detonate spell causing the life boom to explode healing the target for the life boom effect and the remaining healing left on the ticks.

[Jackmoves]

Make barkskin similiar to PS, so you can use it on friendly targets as well as yourself.

[foxHeart]

imo, disc priest need more hots.

[Scifix]

f to the no! fighting resto druids is annoying enough as it is

[Kiva]

Not really.

I've played a resto druid at 85

I've seen resto druids at 85

I've SOLOED resto druids at 85

Resto is SHIT

You mean like WG and Swiftmend? Not exactly the same, but very similar. We are the best throughput healers by far right now because we don't have absorbtion spells. It makes us unique. Why would you want to change that? Played right, a resto druid is a pain in the butt imo.

Personally I think they should add a type of Earth Shield mechanic for when a druid crits. It places a shield on the target that got crit and the next time that target gets hit it gets healed for an amount proportional to the heal that triggered it.

... like living seed?

Face it Rdruids. You've been the best pvp healer through 2 expansions, now let others be king of the hill a bit

[Deleted]

they have the equivalent of a sheild, when ya crit you plant a seed, when that person gets hit you instantly heal them from the seed. same thing in the end absorbe or seed your guy you heal has the sameish hp at the end.

[-Zait-]

I think they're fine, maybe buff HoT's a bit? But no shield >_>
