Except, in order to have what we call balance, it's important that you don't need help 1 vs 1. What this works out to is if you are in the absolute perfect team then you are passable now. Before, in a perfect team you would seem OP. 1 vs 1 a healer should always cancel out a dps. This happened before 1.2. In any other random combination,and God help you in pugs, you get slaughtered. Answer me 1 thing, why did you live for more than 6 secs? In ANY group you should have been marked right away and you would have died in seconds. There is more here than you are telling. It's sad that I even have to point out that you were in a group that even tried to do it's job. My sent alt gets guard more than my healer main, and NOBODY has ever in any match that I can recall EVER assisted my healer when I get attacked. Lol, it's honestly like they want to die. I take that back, I remember 2 and only two fights pre 1.2 that everyone did what was expected and we slaughtered the imps.

I see the same exact arguments on every new mmo. The changes in 1.2 were bad and need to be addressed now. Do not give it time! This will not settle in! One faction will prosper on every server, one faction will continue to fall until they stop playing. Then the other faction stops playing. This is one of the biggest screwups that has come along in awhile and hopefully it will serve as an example to others. I have quit pvp, it's what I liked most about this game... How long do you think that people like myself will stick around? I quit once before because I liked pvp but Bioware refused to acknowledge that the all levels gankfest they created was crap. You need to be fair in pvp or it just isn't fun. Win or lose is fine as long as you stand a chance and have fun. This patch punishes you for sticking with a losing team. It's garbage, please do not sugarcoat this. The devs need to know this now and not after 3 months pass and everybody has left because blatant problems were not addressed. It always happens in every mmo released and even the fanboys will cry for change in a month or two...

I play on probably the most populated server in the game and the republic loses at least 99% of the time. It takes several runs to get the one required win for dailies on my alt, let alone trying to get three on my main. WE STAND NO CHANCE AT ALL! Yes, it is embarrassing and truly pathetic, but nonetheless true. That only lets the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. I've played other faction games, it doesn't EVER work. What does happen is the other side just gives up and stops trying. It always happens when one side has an advantage and will happen here too. This game isn't special and it will follow the same rules other games do by repeating their mistakes.

Yet that player, by design, couldn't kill anyone but the king of noobs because he sacrificed all dps for healing. That's what we call balance in the mmo world.

Yes, it was a fluke. I can't recall the last time I've ever seen tanks care whether a healer lived or died in pvp.

This doesn't end solo queuing. There's no reason why anyone would continue to solo queu after any of the pvp changes in 1.2.

I'm right there with ya, brutha, on my sage.

I can count on one hand the amount of times I have ever had guard on me or anyone try to back me up on my healer. Honestly, they ALWAYS leave me to solo anything that comes my way. When I get marked that can easily be 4+ dps players. I CAN'T keep up with the healing on this, and nobody can. I've had better protection on my sent alt and get guard pretty often. The nerfs with 1.2 have killed wz's for me. They don't even work on paper. Why do some of you defend these changes?

The problem is now that any and all matches are now just deathmatch gankfests. You can't heal anyone, ever, because they will die. BW has essentially made healers complketely useless. They have no effect at all no on the outcome of any wz. Way to go!

Well, I play on the Republic side and 99% of all wz's I enter are losses. I also play a sage healer. So, there is absolutely no reason for me to continue playing WZ's, they're all BS now. They take personal performance out of the factor, and punish you for playing a healer. Screw em all, I can do without the 0-180 credits and piss-poor comms. I'm done with pvp in this game. The bad thing is that it was the part I had the most fun playing...

What they are referring to is like EQ2's system. You get a window for the target of your target that you can easily click on to switch to. They are also referring to another feature that you see in EQ2 where you can simply cast an attack spell on your party member and it will hit their target. You could also cast a heal or a buff on a mob and hit the player it is attacking rather than the mob. These two things together would be great.

I throw my mvp vote around to whoever I see doing a lot for us. I really couldn't care less about the numbers at the end. A lot of those guys ignore objectives just to get their medals up.

Blizzard has never gotten a single thing right. Just because they convinced a lot of people to play a bad game doesn't make them talented. All they ever did was strip every popular feature before them from every game and claim it as their own. They have the absolute worst art style in the history of gaming, yet somehow convince people to continue with their boring, monotonous gameplay. They are garbage, and will never achieve anything else. They are proof positive that 10 million people actually can be wrong...

We understand, go use yer crutch please.

Same here. Even some MMO's are difficult to play one-handed, but this game is pretty accessible.

FFXIV is the worst garbage in the history of mmo's. How can you honestly not feel ashamed for even trying to compare the two?

As a healing sage, I have to laugh at this post. This is the most ridiculous OP class post ever.

Please, let's be honest here. They stripped content from release in order to have more DLC.

You meant any mmo > WoW, must have been a typo.

You can't have it both ways. Either there are plenty of 50's or you rushed to 50. Take your pick. It's about time that 50's get separated from the others. They should have never been allowed in to begin with.

Then all the fanboys will swear it was perfection but it wouldn't be better than anything else out there.

I don't alt tab since I use two monitors, never had a problem with it.

This is the very definition of exploit.

Check in the guild hall section.

Honestly, if you believe it is so easy as a healer to get medals then try it. You'll be back here to apologize really quickly then.
