EASIEST Healer in The War Within | Each Healer RANKED

[@ROrneli]

am i wrong for prefering to range at distance with mistweaver monk? The bonuses: you can focus your mist to heal people taking lots of damage while the spill over heals others , Able to spam heals on someone taking tons of damage better view of the battle away from the explosions . Cons: Very few chances to interrupt Low Damage (only through lightning ) I've tried fist weaving but on high keys tanks take too much damage to heal like this with some random heal landing now and then .

[@LBNinja7]

I mean play the game how you enjoy! If you aren't a fan of the kicking interactions, there's a very fun subset of our kit that focuses on the casts! I would also add in the con category that you are still coded in the game as a melee character, so if an enemy looks for a melee character to spawn swirlies under, you can mess up your ranged dps players like that if not careful

[@synchrogods]

Tbh, i´m lowkey pissed evrytime Holy gets called easy. Try higher keys, when things actually hurt and realise Holy has zero AoE toolkit and the whack a mole triage healing is in full effect. Example: Dawn of the infinite, Dragon trash after Tyr. DP, Guardian one, Serenity another, PW: Life another. First AoE survived. Then you have 2 more coming.... You gotta decide and call personals in a split second. Where other healers just push an AoE heal button. Know what is especially fun then? When you gotta move all the time on bosses - your Holywords deplete fast on damageevents and then you gotta cast Flashheals / Heals, which you can´t do when you have to move.

[@Streetfreak36]

[@simcosports2584]

It’s the easiest to pick up, and understand, I definitely don’t think it’s the easiest to play, but higher keys, everything gets tougher for everyone. This is more for lower keys, weekly keys, pugs.

[@dominikschneeweihs9538]

The Tier List is for War Within, not actual content.

[@LBNinja7]

Oh for sure it lacks tools that other healers have, but if people are looking for an easy healer to play, they aren't thinking about pushing high keys! It just has the least buttons to learn (which is making the same point as you, it lacks tools, we on the same side lol) and cycles between the least buttons of any healer.

[@Bloodrayne800]

I found disc priest easy to play, granted we don't have any panic buttons but if you know the fights it helps a lot

[@dalastbmills]

Anyone who disagrees with "healer is the hardest role" has never tried to heal. I was a main tank in a competitive mythic raiding guild from '16 - '19, often times finding myself as the #1 (B)DK on US-Dalaran (not known for raiding tbh) and got bored of tanking so now I'm a holy priest main. Healing is way more fun and interactive than tanking. I want another healer alt but I can't make up my mind, probably gonna go with Hpala. edit: Why is this hpriest not running Circle of Healing? For 5m with the extra target (5 instead of 4) you can heal the entire party every ~10s for a decent amount. I like to go Circle > Sanctify > prayer of healing for big party damage. CoH and Sanc will heal most of the party's damage, prayer of healing with the Mirror Image will get everyone to 100%. Such a satisfying playstyle IMO

[@nlmod]

For Holy Priest I wish the Surge of Light talent worked with both Flash Heal and Prayer of Healing. I'd make Prayer of Healing viable again for Dungeon runs, and just in general feel better when you have to continuously dodge everything that's thrown at you. Also currently Holy Priest has the same weakness as Preservation Evoker when it comes to AoE healing, but worse... With Pres you can at least position yourself better to heal groups with your cone, with Holy Priest you have your one-off small area heal(Holy Word: Sanctify) that no ranged dps ever gets in range of. I wish they would've adjusted this when they did the class reworks in the beta, but Priest barely had any changes at all. And I personally would much rather play with both Prayer of Healing and Circle of Healing than Holy Word: Sanctify, but because of the talent tree you're forced to take HW: Sanctify before you can take either of the other 2, resulting in extremely limited build diversity.

[@raechu_01210]

Mistweaver in the same tier as rdruid and below hpal feels like a joke. Hpal you need to use the right tool for the job but mistweaver you can literally get portals with just maintaining renewing mists, doing your melee rotation, vivify, and Sheilun's. Hpriest also is secretly less easy than you'd think for one reason. They're incredibly fragile. If you make a mistake and get hit, you're just fucking dead. They're probably the most fragile spec in the game I think? And if you want an easy healer, I think you also want to not get murdered for any mistake you make.

[@LBNinja7]

Youre definitely right, priests are made if paper. I really did consider mistweaver for top 3, but it does have a lot more intricacies than hpal. Also heals buttons are all easy just like sheiluns, but new players do struggle a bit to understand chiji to it's full potential. You could just as easily swap monk and hpal and I think the list would be just as valid tho!

[@Soluxya]

I still think Preservation is the most difficult, it's hard to wrap your mind around Echo and Stasis along with the reduced range. Disc is hard, but I'm pretty sure it could be fixed with tuning.

[@LBNinja7]

Yeah that is a very good point, strong Disc is easy Disc. But I do think a brand new player can stumble on passable healing as evoker whereas they'd be a little lost on Disc

[@Zeph914]

For me pres is the easiest. You just memorize some of the combo rotations and where to best use them at and spend all your essence on beam to get mana back. Easily put out a none stop aoe healing profile while doing extra damage and never going out of mana.

[@James-kv3ll]

At this point in my life, easy is good. They keep making the Dungeons more mechanically complex. It’s just not fun when I have to worry about complexity in the Dungeons and complexity with my character. Pick one, not both. It’s just not fun to have to LOCK IN constantly when someone else’s mistake can ruin your entire run regardless of what you do.

[@leondavies9735]

I find holy priest easy in low keys but I feel it’s way harder than resto druid in high keys. You end up trying to flash heal through massive aoe damage as you run out of holy words easy.

[@kayladecant7332]

Super reasonable take - but if high keys are on the table for you, then a video about healer difficulty is *probably* outside of scope for you.

[@vanguelisk]

that is why you play disc at high key lvls

[@rockurox]

[@LBNinja7]

Haha fair enough! I'm pretty interested to hear how you would order things! That's why I love these videos because everyone has their own way of viewing it and it just shows how flexible the healer role is!

[@rockurox]

Almost the opposite other than Shaman. I base a lot of it on keybinds too. Holy priest has soooooooooo many buttons. Even if you spec for the least amount. Disc and Resto druid have been the easiest for me and my friends. Though I still main Mistweaver Can't wait for for your video on the 11.0.5 patch notes for Mistweaver!

[@mikepaulin9109]

I have no problem healing with disc priest, it just feels natural to me, but I guess thats why it works for me.

[@restindeath1755]

Should make an overall video for PVP and PVE. Some healers are more difficult in other areas such as PVP because they require more buttons for functions and rotations.

[@codycurtin2295]

Disc is even worse off than just being harder to play, the numbers are absolutely abysmal. When we had the 4 set that gave instant Radiance it was so smooth and much easier for people to pick up (still proactive but one less element of telepathic gameplay)

[@cel-q2v]

my issue with these lists is the "proactive is harder than reactive" mindset when ALL healers should be some level of proactive to be used to their full potential, all healers should know fights and when damage is coming in. for example ive seen quite a few people say rsham is easier than druid and surface level sure, totemic isnt really just reactionary though, cbt is also not a reactionary spell, you cant spam chain heals etc. always found druid easier. feel like rsham is just being ranked as easiest because of healing throughput rn opposed to playstyle idk

This gonna sound silly but I'm trying retail after not playing since Wrath... How do the totems work? Can I put down healing rain and healing surge at the same time? The game does a pretty bad job of explaining that to people like me.

[@Max-9871]

There are no elemental (fire,water,earth,wind) totems anymore since cata i believe cause most totems were just passive effects without cooldown and with cata blizzard massively cut down casted abilities that are basicly pointless cause they give a passive bonus (windfury totem for example got converted to a passive aura buff). You can easily spot that the totem mechanic got entirely switched by reading the tooltips. Wotlk and before totems mentioned what element they are and that you can only place one of that element in their tooltips so since that part is entirely missing now totems are just totems and you can have a unlimited amount at the same time

[@refinery9co.139]

[@dr.zoidberg8666]

As a long time healer I've long found Holy priest to feel clunky. People call it easy because it's quite reactive & has lots of different heals, but imho the gameplay never feels smooth. I actually think Disc is easier in the current game but I wouldn't pick it right now due to performance issues. Resto shammy is definitely where it's at for beginners, but I'd also say fistweaver is a sneaky contender. It'll never top lists like this because it's an unconventional healer, but the rotation feels really good & imo is easy to learn.

[@dr.zoidberg8666]

@@Testoodope As a healer main for many many years now, I'd say Holy Priest is easy, but with a decently high skill ceiling to perform very well. Discipline USED to be the most difficult healing spec, but it was significantly simplified in DF. Now it has fewer buttons than any other healer & a pretty straightforward mechanic. In modern WoW Resto Druid is the most difficult healer & I don't think it's even particularly close.

[@xarbinchaoticneutral1785]

Hot take, but I prefer them to keep disc as the hardest spec (speaking as a ksh/gladiator disc main since mop). I only wish they didn't get rid of spirit shell and I hate that they turned schism into a scuffed mindblast. Disc should be a support class rather than healer with the focus being mitigation and damage prevention through absorbs. I really hate this doubling down on atonement shit. Also making mind games being pvp only is super scuffed. Probably the only good thing that came out of shadowlands. It had such a huge potential with skill ceiling (like during Nathria). When I tank and I see a high io disc priest, he gets an auto invite because I know that 'this guy f@cks'

Ppl who make these vids are just biased. Druid is easy to heal with. Ppl are just bad

[@LBNinja7]

I've gained rdruid longer than I've gained mistweaver, so to us it might seem easy. But it has the most upkeep of any healer and always has to be prepping for damage to come, which is difficult in a new expansion with new damage patterns. No need to take it to heart. If anything, take it as a compliment that you find the healer easy that others find hard!

[@LBNinja7]

Also worth mentioning, mistweavers and disc priest set up their ramps in about 10 globals, but resto druids have like a 20 global ramp if you thing about it lol

[@DrLoaky]

I think druid can't keep up with damage of you have not prepared for it. That makes it harder I think. So if you're running m+ with a pug group that makes a lot of mistakes a druid can't really deal with that imo.

[@apsodyeu3694]

shut your brain off while you heal? what healer have you been playing?

[@Velerios]

Honestly: Holy Priest ist Easy to learn, Hard to master. Probably harder than many of the other easy classes. at the beginning: damage > heal. But then when you get better, pre-casting spells with breaking them if necessary, filling in damage without risking healing, heck even using Holy nova with 20 stacks makes sense now, so that you can't be at max range all the time, and not forgetting sometimes even filling it power word: shield (there are even talents for priest now). Priest is definitively the easy class to learn healing, but it actually has depth in it. I think that the skill ceiling is higher on Holy Priest than on any other class (not saying that it's harder than disc, just that the difference between beginner and master of the spec is bigger than on any other healing class)

Disc priest high key pusher here, this spec is ez as fuck in M+ . It seems hard because it's undertuned, the game is absolutely unbalanced. if disc had the same healing numbers as Rdruid you'd see how ez it is. Disc is only hard in raid where nerdy sweatlords show off how good at math they are.

Nerdy Swearlords??? Omg 😂😂😂

[@zakwilson3276]

I agree. Disc has such a great tool kit for m+ (minus the lack of interrupt or stop). We get so many AOE healing burst windows with all the CD reduction on smite now. Timing for damage in dungeons feels super forgiving. Sometimes I'm in Shadow covenant just to get more damage off because I know I'll have my pet back by the time I need him. DR is also super under rated in higher keys. The bigger those damage numbers get the more impactful DR is. My only complaints are the lack of an interrupt and that other healers can put out way more HPS outside of their cool downs where we are very dependent on ours to do literally any healing. But if they boosted off cool down output we would probably be a little over tuned.

[@topleveldnd]
