Theun Reviews Patch 10.2 Healer Changes - Healers Still Too Powerful?
This week veteran healer and Wowhead Class Guide Writer, Theun, briefly reviews the collective Season 3 Healer changes coming in Patch 10.2. Blizzard addressed healer frustrations from previous seasons with a blue post on their 10.2 goals and a large list of Season 3 class changes, but do these changes go far enough?
First Impressions of the Healer Changes in Patch 10.2
The Problem with Healing in Previous Seasons
If you're a healer in Dragonflight you've probably heard a lot of talk recently about the overall state of healing throughout 10.0 and 10.1. Recently Jak and Theun have covered a lot of the talking points about healing, what has changed, and what we hope to see changed going into 10.2. You can go back and check those articles out here and here if you'd like.
To summarize, healing cooldowns felt too powerful and abundant across the board, spot healing spells felt really weak, and more than anything — healers were simply too powerful.
Blizzard's Goals for Healing
Blizzard has heard us and agreed that there are some changes that need to be made in a recent bluepost.
Single target healing spells currently don’t feel like they move the health bar enough. We want these heals to be impactful and have a purpose, and hope this makes healing a Mythic+ dungeon less stressful for healers.
