I'm glad
This sounds just like when the rangers got screwed.
So? You met a glassy burst thief that had a “lil’ bit o’ luck”. If I meet those fellas while roaming solo: death shroud (ofc always full, if you don’t know how, well…) + reflect, than I “grapple hook” the then runaway and bye bye.
Means: The Necro is still strong, even if the new heal is kinda crappy for solo pvp/wvw. The only use I can think of is for sigill necros (are there seriously any) and if you play only as a tanky supporter (what kinda sucks compared to other classes).
Other classes got a “crappy workaround” too, e.g. our pure support guardian isn’t happy with the new heal either (if you play a support + heal guardian you know why) and even the new warrior heal isn’t that good. Yesterday one of our warris died in fracs, because he forgot to change the heal and did never get a hit when active.
