good heals

moriella — Wed, 11/26/2008 - 05:47

He seems to be a very strong healer, but more of the type to throw a bomb at healing rather than use any finesse

There seems to be NO synergy between a disc priest and a h pallie.

We will work it out, 3.0 has changed many things and good players adapt

Shihli — Wed, 11/26/2008 - 09:44

To his defense, he only has two regular healing spells (Holy Shock is an "oh crap" spell generally) - Flash of Light and Holy Light. As he said last night, he was glyphed into the AoE healing talent from Holy Light, leaving him only one real single-target "focused" healing spell.

Likewise, I'm not exactly sure what is implied by an implied synergy between specific healing classes - but you would have much more knowledge in this area in general. Just asking for clarification is all.

Bubble, then refresh, then

Fjork — Wed, 11/26/2008 - 12:45

Bubble, then refresh, then xx, then xx, then........ dangit. The pally just dropped a Holy Light crit and the target's max health. Just wasted 4 GCDs.

That would be my guess as to what he meant.

Shihli's picture

In which case, damn near

Shihli — Wed, 11/26/2008 - 13:09

In which case, damn near every healer lacks synergy with the others. "Heal sniping" happens with every healer :)

When I hear synergy (outside of my office building), I think of classes complementing each other in such a way that both (or at least one) is made stronger by the other. A good example is the pre-3.0 Warlock and Shadowpriest. Both were strong in their own rights, but put in the same group/raid they gave each other what - a 15% dps increase? Something along those lines.

As far as healing synergy is concerned, I always liked druid/shaman. Not because of any inherent "strength" that one gave the other, but rather because the two covered each other's weak points quite well - shamans make great group healers and have strong, direct heals - but no HoT's and were generally "weaker" single-target healers. Druids were outstanding single-target healers by way of their HoTs but generally didn't want to pump out HoT-packs on more than 2 targets.

Hence why most of my pre-3.0 Bear Mount runs had a druid and a shaman healing.

It looks like I need to write

moriella — Thu, 11/27/2008 - 08:35

It looks like I need to write a treatise on exactly how disc healing works so guild members can understand the synergy that I'm speaking of.

I wasnt referring to 'synergy' in a competitive form. I'll bring all this out in a upcoming 'epic' lenght post.

Disc is really different since 3.0 and it's very fair that we need an education as a guild on what exactly it brings to a raid and how it is designed to function optimally.

garreth — Tue, 11/11/2008 - 10:52

1. Never put Clos down as a reference :P
2. Grid, look into it
3. Flash and HL on "-" and "="? How does that work?
4. You're mainly PvP, so I'll let it slide, but manually popping DF and all trinkets?

Though I'm really just nitpicking, it sounds like you really know your stuff and we need healers that can GET THE F OUT OF THE FIRE. I look forward to more of your replies here.

flash is bound to mouse wheel

Karvinen — Tue, 11/11/2008 - 15:28

You may also look into

Fjork — Wed, 11/26/2008 - 07:42

You may also look into Dominoes as well. There's ALOT of buttons most of us pallies use on an every-few-minutes basis, not to mention all of the other random pickups that we have to use while raiding.

With a little patience, Dominoes is a VERY useful application. You have ten bars of up to 12 buttons. You can hide/move any of there whereever you want on the screen.

I have to say congratz though. You got Shihli's vote right off, and he has some very high standards. Good luck!

Uh oh, nearly stock UI on a

Dragon — Tue, 11/11/2008 - 07:32

Uh oh, nearly stock UI on a paladin. Garreth should be swooping in on this any second.

But hey, this is a holy pally AND he takes kings! And we all know I need moar kings :D

I vote yes aswell. Very good

HBK — Thu, 11/27/2008 - 02:14

I vote yes aswell. Very good healer.
