Hi Im currently a lvl 38 merc healer, I find the heals strong as hell when healing single targets but if at any point your group stands in an AOE its pretty much game over. AOE healing is the only real let down with this class, and while we all QQ about it, i dont think Swtor creators wanted all healers to be so evenly matched like Blizz did in wow, no class has weaknesses. But i find the best thing about merc heals is their survivability.... one of the most important aspects of all 3 war zones is living, whether its to stop caps, stop bomb plants or carry the ball, so throwing kolto shell on yourself, popping sheild, shoot yourself with kolto missile and spam healing yourself while annoying the hell outta the republic with knock backs, stuns and stopping caps with rapid shots you can be a extremely annoying player and live forever. other things to mention.... death from above is still insane as a healer, if you have 30 stacks of supercharged gases use it and shoot a missile on yourself/others to get the 10% dmg reduction and as i said im only 38 so im yet to get Emergency Scan ,the big instant heal you get at 40, which i can only presume will increase your survivability. sorry about the poor spelling, and im very bias as i've never played a sorc healer.... but i even as a lvl 38 i can get 350k healing and they cant ..... regards Haylea (swiftsure)

Anyone else feel you're spending far to much time behind a door in WZ? in particular the Voidstar ones.... I was just in a game and i almost raged my computer out the window when a Jedi had time to run from the second door, unlock the gate and plant the bomb to the data room in the time it took for us to spawn.
