Down with the braindead faceroll classes.
Read the thread. Watched the video. Most of the “best wvw combat heals” came from running perma-regen in a siege.
Color me unimpressed. War healing is ok, but it’s somewhat silly to sacrifice an entire build simply to get more green numbers.
I saw his post a while ago, I don’t think he realizes it is more important to prevent damage than heal damage in this game.
If I’m playing FotM Ascalon map, I rather have a staff ele CCing the mean swordsmen to protect me from getting hit than his healing war healing me.
Well, seeing as how the staff ele gets water combo fields that can affect way more than the 5-people per aoe limit, I’d say the elementalist provides the most healing….provided people know how to properly make use of it.
with healing rain and the trait that removes a condition every time you grant regeneration you’ll do way more than a healing warior ever could. Plus if you go D/D with aura-share you can share shocking aura and frost aura. Shocking aura stuns enemies and frost aura reduces 10% dmg. Add protection to aura and its even more damage reduction. I don’t see any other class reliably giving protection, healing, swiftness, regen, condition removal to allies all in one build. Plus add to that that the healing build of the elementalist is one of the only viable elementalist builds… Can’t say that about the warior healing build.
I for one agree with the OP from the war post. War healing is entirely overpowered and it, rather than ele healing deserves to be nerfed
