    Meanwhile holy pally has been guaranteed a spot since… wrath? TBC?
    Let’s say they remove all the DR that they were complaining about so it’s just throughput
    In fights like guardian you would only bring healers with big burst then so there would still be a meta

    Let’s say they gave all healers the same DR
    Well you would still only take certain healers

    In a stream where you have a caster say that what the guilds in the race are doing isn’t going to be required for even the top 200 and then immediately after complain about them stacking classes in a fight that’s an obvious dps check…yeah sorry I can’t take that seriously

    Also when you go off about the shards of domination, which I’ll agree is a dumb system but it’s pretty well explained how they drop on at least 10 fan sites, and say “blizzard needs to explain how these drops work”

    Talking about how hps means absolutely nothing and how he doesn’t like healers who don’t do damage in their rotation and saying “well blizz won’t fix it because like chat they just don’t care that we only have two classes that do damage to heal and they prefer to just heal” when
    1. Eliminating a play style for the enjoyment of the minority who will work around it is better than eliminating it for the vast majority of players
    2. We have 3 classes that do damage in their rotation to heal the only thing is one has to use a certain talent build

    Instead of armor class splits you are running character splits

    4 players one of each armor class and optimal amount of "helpers" to maximise the loot (30? I guess that would drop max loot)

    Repeat that for each main and alt of 20-30 people roster, in top guilds how many alts people usually have? 2 minimum?

    Yeah it totally forces less splits

    I also like the argument that “it’s not required outside the top 200” - sure it’s not, but spirit link always makes fights easier, whether you’re talking heroic, normal, or mythic. Nobody is just gonna be like “whatever I’ll just play a bad class, I’m in a bad guild, we’re only world 500 so who cares?”
    That’s the same argument JD made
    You can bring a mw to mythic over a second priest because the fight will be needed to the point that it allows it

    Outside of utility has shaman heals been strong in terms of throughput or are they only given a spot because of the fact they are a walking Swiss Army knife

    Shamans trade off throughput for utility
    Paladins trade off throughput and aoe for utility
    Disc trades off throughput for utility and damage
    Druid trades off utility for throughput and mobility
    Monk trades off utility for throughput and damage
    Holy priest trades off utility for throughput

    There’s niches for each spec and the fact that you have 5 slots for heals means you can have the best utility each raid

    Heck tyrant in hfc was the only boss in that raid where you were absolutely required a shaman healer

    Of course. Especially if you compare to like a mistweaver, which has never been meta (was OK in HFC, that's about it).. Cocoon and Revival is all they get. Their damage used to actually be fine, but that playstyle is long gone too. Like just why would you ever do that to yourself. Maybe one day they will design a fight where you need the dispel component of revival, and then MW will be brought for that fight just so they can wash their hands and say "see? it's viable!".

    Add to that since mana absolutely doesn't matter anymore, everyone can just pump maximum throughput whenever needed (with disc being an exception). Healing is just very one dimensional. Space out cooldowns to cover burst windows and do whatever you want otherwise.

    How have they "wasted" today? I don't get how these comments keep coming up.

    On the chance that KT is under-tuned then an entire day of splits seems a bit like a waste of time.
    Ideally no one has ever hit the level cap of the last expansion, looked at their dungeon blues, and thought "I win."

    These kinds of spergs still exist? jesus. Doctors need to start handing out more anti depressants


    I'll bite though, i'll bite.

    "One more day" It's not one more day, it's 16hours. I know that's hard for your to grasp, 8 hours and all, but it's still not 24 it's 16hours.

    Secondly, Echo gets to watch limit strats which makes up for time lost. Limit deals with bugs that are fixed for echo like what happened on Soulrender.

    Last but not least let's take this home, Echo got a 2boss lead. It was 7/10 Echo 5/10 Limit, The second that happened your argument of "headstart" went down the shitter with the sperm your mother should of spit out.

    It’s not even 16 hours because the wipes caused by bugs or the extra hot fixes mid raid or late starts or long maintenance or the time they burned bringing pugs in for splits

    1. The raiders don’t use the head start as an excuse

    2. Limit lost a ton of time at painsmith
