Battle Fatigue nerf in 5.4.7 aka "I was wrong, they dont care..."

If u want to heal for approxi 500, go rerol ret paladin and off heal in bg's

It may seem retarded but if it works, it ain't retarded

ret finally have a reason to be rerolled!!!!!111
 
I wonder if dot classes could be viable again since the damage might actually mean something, but burst will probably be just as sought after as before.
 
Less heals so you throw DoTS on everyone and it gives the healer a big problem, throw some burst on top of that and shit actually goes down. This may make Warlocks and Mages viable as you said but note that they are cloth, a healer might not be able to save a cloth type if battle fatigue is as bad as you all expect. Armor type may be a determining factor this patch. Though to whom it may concern armor means nothing to Mages and Warlocks.
 
Their is no greater satisfaction then watching new players with no gear slowly but surely pick apart opposing teams DPS, watching them succeed, and watching them just have fun in general, while i'm in the background keeping them up.

For me, healing has never really been anything other then wanting to make other players around me better. I think anyone who is a dedicated healer also shares this mentality to an extent.

Personally, i'd rather be in the background healing my teammates while they go superstar DPS mode. An exceptionally aware healer can bring out the best of the players around them, their teammates will build confidence knowing that no matter what they get themselves into, their is a dedicated healer right behind them.

I might just be weird and take this game too seriously, but i absolutely LOVE to heal and watch other players shine on the battle field.


That being said, until the nerf is 100% battle fatigue, you will find me healing players in the gulch and basin.


When the nerfing is done and the dust has settled, only the true healers shall remain. (;

Thats why I rolled an enh shaman (off-healer, support class):
crit surge: 1.6k

My enh shaman is stacked with crit rating, so 750-800 with battle fatigue isnt bad. I tried to off-heal with a retri pally: it's impossible to manage the mana poll (crap mana regen). I tried the off-heal feral druid too. So, the most effective off-healer with realistic manageable mana poll regen is the enh shaman. Off-healer Feral Druid is also good but the battle fatigue kills it.

If you can manage your time when and whom to heal You can do mostly like 30-50k healing in a bg and also, do not just heal, do dmg also, build up holy power and use them for heling or burst

Its most likely to work, i done it several times in bg's

Well, it's like the enh shaman then. I do 20-25k dmg & 20-25k healing in average in a single WSG. Manage mana pool isn't easy on retri pally, building up holy power you have to fight (means you have close range when comes the fight) with the amount of huntards, and other range dps, it becomes a pain-in-the-ass to build up holy power.

Feral Druid has the best and the easiest way to get mana back, stealth mode, but the battle fatigue makes their Revuj so ineffective.
Enh Shaman has 2ways to get mana back: 40% chances on melee hits to get back and Water Shield. Surge is an effective healing and the only 1 they use.
Retri Pally has to manage mana and manage holy power, it's easier to manage holy power than mana but you need to spend to burst dmg instead than healing. Flash of Light is an effective healing but you can cast like 3-4times without getting oom.
Prot Pally has easier way to manage mana than Retri Pally, they get 15%mana back every 2secs. Good defense and stamina boost. Silence & Interrupt with Avenger Shield. Vengeance to boost your attack power, so in the same process boosting the spell power. One of the most survivalist off-healer.

That's what I found out by trying off-healing with those specs.

Agreed, practically all of my twinks are healers and I have played a healer exclusively end game since early BC. Everyone thought that heals where going to be goners when battle fatigue first got implemented. This is just a small change compared to the hit we first took.

Good news is this will teach those wasd clickers to play right, kite, and become a better player. Sadly for those already better players. This is a letdown

Oh and will teach some priests to bubble consistently
 
Throw some holy gear, resilience looms, haste and spirit on a ret pally and BAM

No. You don't put holy gear to a retribtion pally because their spell power comes from half of their current attack power and nothing else (no other sources). Retribution can't benefit from spirit in combat, so useless for them to stack spirit.
