What Classes can Heal in Raids?

i’ve mained druid for raiding since Jan this year.

My initial note is that full magi is pointless in all apart from training runs (personally even a 5LI group you don’t need full magi). I tend to roll trinkets which dont boost my DPS by much, 2.5k (lazy mode) to about 5k (lazy mode) while still being able to heal everyone nice and good.

Healing in GW2 is easy and classes that CAN do it are – Druid, Tempest/Elementalist(both can), Revenant and Warrior (shout heals LUL) and mistrel chrono(would prefer they focus on Alac+Quickness uptime though ^^)

Druid is by far the strongest of those overall since none of those healing classes can match a Druid’s offensive buffs (spotter, GotL, Spirits and empowerment) and in some cases can’t match its DPS too (condi druid gets 10-15k DPS while still being able to heal – this is squad dependent. mechanic eaters might need magi heals)

Ele has some good heals too and i’ve seen it work quite well for some easier fights like VG.

i’ve seen some revenants play as kiter on things like Cairn and that seems to go.. acceptably. i think Revenant’s strength is shown on the deimos kiting scene where he is pretty kitten strong.

I am not too familiar with the minstrel chrono stuff but from what i can tell their well healing skill has some okay scaling with healing power and if they’re using Signet of Insp on regen then i see potenital. But again i also say this is squad specific as i believe experienced FULL-MAN raids can run 2 Berserker chronos with 1 on Berseker’s Accessories and another on Knight’s Accessories for the extra toughness to get like 1408 (i think).

Shout warrior is a meme.

I personally think Condi Druid is the best healer and i think someone did the maths to prove it but i’m not going to quote anything.

Maybe we’ll see a mixup in PoF with barrier+heals if LWS4 Raid wings (when we get em ^^) are painful and/or work around barrier in some way.

Deadeye the new "PS"?

I like the idea and maybe with Rune of Strenght it might become something that could replace pPS
However say we have One in the Chamber , Peripheral Vision AND Fire for effect it might be fun to run Leadership runes and use deadeye as a support DPS/Boonkit

Though that sounds more like a fun/troll build more than a META one it might be kidna funny to see what it can do.

P.S – using stolen skills twice is Deadly ArtsImprovisation

[BUG][RAID] Stuck inside wall of last tower

Hi

I just signed up to the forum to post this since it happened recently so sorry if i get some etiquette wrong or something

I was running Escort with some lowly PUGs and some guildies as you do on a late Saturday night in Summer, when i stumbled off the ledge of the final tower.
I somehow managed to get myself stuck inside the wall after being slapped by a White Mantle Knight as i fell.

The attachment is what it looks like from outside.
I’m able to cast spells etc. however i’m unable to hit mobs as it is "obstructed."
I guess it’s not Raid-Breakingly broken since i can’’t hit the mobs.

i have 4 images of my perspective that show me being able to use skills and me inside it but the one i have attached shows me stuck the best.

Hopefully this is useful and that you have a wonderful day!
