Disable healing in Deathmatch

its not really a death match when the opposing team can completely heal all of their players with one skill. leave healing on in the other modes. but disable it in deathmatch please. Healers should not decide a match.
@ZOS_Kevin Please close this thread, it was a poor thought. and i don't want this to become the next vet overland thread, since we all know how ridiculous that already is.

✭✭✭✭✭Yeah let's remove another player's playstyle from the game.
Healing and support is part of a battle, you just need the discipline to target healers first.
What next take tanks out too?
With the low TTK matches would last a minute. lol

✭Shields also shouldn't determine a match, please disable.
And mobility, players running away really fast is also a problem, please disable sprint.
Roll dodge completely ignores some of my attacks, it should be disabled as well.
Also, what's with blocking, stupid **** stops attacks, why should holding a metal plate be so strong, disable.
Disable everything except damage, that's the only solution.

perfiction✭✭✭✭✭Better idea - remove all skills, passives and gear from deathmatch BGs, make them naked fist fights instead.20 -

This one agree, perhaps not posing whileI have seen some weird suggestions in my time but that one is up there...
Grinding just make you go in circles.
Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.1 -

✭✭If I queue as healer for a random BG and end up in a Deathmatch. What am I supposed to do in your opinion?
Should I just go afk and let my team loose untill I get lucky and get a different game mode?5 -

✭✭✭✭✭This is one of the least thought out ideas I have ever heard. Great way to make the Ring of the Pale Order the new battlegrounds meta, unless you make it impossible to be healed at all.
If you make it impossible to be healed at all you'd make my vampire build quite literally useless because my primary damage dealing ability costs health. The ramifications of losing access to it would be devastating on my sustain, and another issue is vampire stage 3 would be even more cemented in the meta as everyone would become health and resistance stacking tanks.
Whenever healing goes down building tanky goes up. Whenever tankiness goes down people try to heal as much as possible, and if they can't then damage goes up. When people die super quickly it comes a twitchy blood frenzy of people murdering each other in less time than it takes to respawn. That is not fun at all, especially in Battlegrounds.Edited by Vevvev on November 8, 2021 5:15PMPC NA - Ceyanna Ashton - Breton Vampire MagDK1 -

✭✭✭✭✭So a group with a healer has a mostly useless players if they get DM. I don’t see a problem with that design.
I guess we can make it so the queue is either specifically DM or specifically objective even though that will lead to longer queue times for the DM queue.Edited by Amottica on November 8, 2021 5:49PM0 -

Some people die without healing, some people get healed and don't die. Sounds like a deathmatch to me.
I know you said close this thread but as a healer I'm still compelled to write... NO! I must go on record as objecting before this gets closed.

Agreed! No invalidating my favorite playstyle! I like to support my teammates in BGs and dungeons and all my allies in Cyrodiil! The game is supposed to be play how you want, not DPS only.

✭✭Also, please remove damage from deathmatch, because without heals I'll get killed a lot.5 -

✭✭✭✭✭Can you blame OP for thinking ZOS would listen to this idea? I mean, ZOS saw people not doing objectives and screwing over their team, and as a result, removed every mode that takes any strategy, because they should punish everyone for the actions of the crayon-eating people who only care about their KDR and don't help their team. Punish all in favor of dumbing the game down for a handful. So why not punish all again and remove heals? #ZOS logic.Grand Master Crafter, Beta baby who grew with the game.

Some of the funniest moments in my gaming life is when we've had two stale mated groups give up, get naked and just start punching each other.
10/10 recommend.2 -

They don't.
This is my best healing score (18200) and we lost.
This is the most healing I've ever done (3.6m) and we lost.
None of the enemy teams in these matches had healers.PC NA2 -
