Imagine a Templar complaining about to low heals...BoL is still a strong instaheal (strongest in the game). Not to mention being able to purge any DoT with a heal over time (strongest in the game) a ridiculous armor buff with Focus (strongest in the game) and Magplars can even spam Jabs that heal them (Most advantages in the game on one skill).

Templar is by far the most powerful healing class in PvE and PvP, it can stand in absolutely overwhelming numbers and doesn't even care, they are like Necros only with better heals.

Im afraid that bol isnt the strongest burst heal in the game. Healthy offering from magblade is

Fixed that for you.

Depending on scaling hircines fortitude is way higher than either of those.
Arctic blast can be up there too.
Also coag now heals for more than bol on low hp.
Honestly breath might not even make it to the top 5 at this point.
Love it when ppl think like we are in 2016.
We are not. Also purge costs more than breath, and in the current meta 5 dot removal doesn't even scratch the surface in bgs or when fighting multiple ppl in general.
If anything cloak is much better Beacuse it deals with all dots.

I mean matriarch just has so much utility. Its a group aoe heal, higher tooltip then bol, gives line of sight, and gives health when slotted from sorc passive. A heal being strong doesnt just mean the raw heal itself, it also refers to the utility of the heal. Either way, templar healing for both mag and stam is abysmal

Magplar Healer in AvA pvp is dying, and here's why. I will compare them to the two other best suited classes for healing below.

Magplar healers rely on a lot of their healing ability from base healing stats. They don't specialize in crit healing like Necromancer, and they don't have access to major mending like Warden healers.

They do not have built in tankiness like both Necromancer and Warden. The minor protection we had access to was taken away. Sure we got an armor rating increase, but with the way pen and crit go at this point that's meaningless.

So now, magplar healers are forced into stacking on as much damage mitigation as possible while trying to also supply sufficient healing in PvP situations. And it's boring. It is almost impossible at this point to use any sort of support set when most are useless at this point due to the amount of damage output and healing reduction that has been introduced patch over patch. I am currently testing out just using scraps of different sets just for healing done bonuses to multiply buffs received so I can get some kind of push to my healing along with a back bar based on pure damage mitigation. And guess what, it's actually working. **I'm getting more utility with my magplar healer now using one 5 piece set, 2 pieces of one set, 3 pieces of another set, and a monster set than you know, the standard 5,5, 2.**

Instead of reactive direct healing, Magplar has become more active supplemental healing. You have to constantly keep all healing abilities available to you up and active because there is no heal skill that makes you feel like you're making a difference anymore. My ultimate is only hitting people for 4/5k tick each when vd can now hit someone for 14k. BoL also only hits for 4/5k on average. Crit heals do go through at times, but if I wanted to depend on crit healing I would just play my necro healer. No access to major mending to boost like Warden. See what I'm getting at?

I don't want to feel invincible, but there has to be some way to make Templar shine again. Also, lol to anyone thinking the 3 seconds of major mending from the resto staff line means anything. It requires you to complete a fully charged resto staff heavy attack. With the amount of delay/cc going on in cyro the chance of that actually buffing your healing is slim to none.
