Nord healer discussion

Hello fellow healers.

I've heard some rumors about Nord healer being the go to option on both healers in min-maxing trial group.

I am not so convinced about it. Both Bloodspawn and Nord's ultigen are on damage taken. But Bloodspawn has 6% proc chance with 6 sec cooldown and needs to proc at least ONCE per 30 seconds in order to be as effective as Nord's ultigen which has 100% chance. I am sure BS is at least as effective as Nord's ultigen.

No healer is using Bloodspawn now, but healers should go with Nord next patch? I don't understand the logic behind this. If the ultigen was that significant we all would drop off our Bogdans, Earthgores and Troll Kings and put on Bloodspawn, right? We did not. But suddenly, we should all drop our sustain and healing in order to get the very same thing we have access even now? I don't get it, please enlighten me.

    That was the very same reaction I had when some try-hards came up with the idea of Nord healer.

    An extra 30 ult a minute is not worth much.

    they need to make it 5 ultimate every 5 seconds when in combat.... or just remove it entirely and give us weapon damage and stam sustain.

    Even with the ultimate passive and resists they don't look to be BiS tank and if they aren't BiS tank and weakest in terms of damage for magicka and stamina than Nord may actually be just as bad as they are on live.

    Making it 5 ult per 5 seconds would make people think about Nord healers even more.

    I'd rather make it 2 ultimate per 4 seconds. Same ultigen as 5/10 sec. But healers do not take damage often enough to make use of it. And it would create very nice synergy with decisive weapon on tanks (which tanks will run anyways if the halved enchants on one hander with shield make it to live).

    The ultimate needs to be in combat and needs a way lower cooldown that way every role can utilize it opening more roles up for a Nord as just a tank and not even the best one at that.
