…and threw us into a tank full of piranhas.

Maybe instead of Nerfing DH, just leave it alone and give us the following amulet:

1050 Power
1050 Precision
600 Toughness
600 Healing

So we can spec defense against direct damage, while leaving ourselves open to condition pressure.

Demolisher amulet has the toughness.

Unless you really need healing power… but isn’t ferocity more useful?

but then druid would be even stronger v dh ;(

You can have healing power, toughness, power, but you’re not allowed precision.

i think you meant

1050 Power
1050 Precision
560 Toughness
560 Healing

think your dh can survive with base health of 11k with only 560 toughness and 560 healing ?

they would not allow both toughness and healing together.
maybe a vitality variant instead ?

1050 Power
1050 Precision
560 Vitality
560 Healing

Good catch, yeah that’s what I meant.

No, no. I use Druid. I was thinking it would be a good counter that healers (Ele and Druid) could use against thieves, Revenants, and DH. Those classes spec for very high direct damage but the only healing amulets available are weak to direct damage.

The new DH fights a bit like the old bunker Mesmer, when using Sw/Shield and SC/focus. This might be OK, if it could not also deal such high damage. The above amulet would mitigate the damage better making the fight more like a normal bunker fight. Ele could also return in a more balanced healer fashion.

This way we can leave DH like it is, meaning not nerf it, as there will be better counters for its meyham. With the return of a more balanced Ele and Druids hardened to kill it.

Cleric amulet was carcinogenic with such high healing and toughness. Instead of totally removing it, they should have shaved it with the amulet listed above. They over compensated.
