What ever happened healing pvp

Couldnt find what they end up doing with healing in battle spirit, last thing i saw was something as players with over 8 heals on them got 35% lesser healing recevied or something like stupid as that. So what did they end up with doing? Did they came to their senses and went for something else or did they go thru with it ?

Tempoary fix? Its making everything worse and buffs ballgroups even more, and 3 months plus is a long time. The change gonna make more problems than good. Take battlegrounds for example, half the time i get 2 healers on my team, think all the abuse they would get next patch, not just in bg but random healers in cyro as well. And then you would have troll healers. This would just kill pvp more and drive more people away. Ballgroup is still untouched, every decent player know that as long as damage shield stacking is still a thing it wont affect them at all, but everyone else it would. If zos did like other games and balanced it in about weeks or a month it would be fine, but leaving the game in a broken state that long is not good.
But thanks for link, but no patch notes 11.3.4?Edited by Militan1404 on February 11, 2026 2:23PM0 -

one of many reasons why I don't play this game2 -

The same could be said by the whole trio, no healers no problem, no tanks no problem, no dps no problem, no players no problem and so on. all roles should have their place in this game. And group finder just pair you with randoms, so you have no control how many healers your team would get. And why do you leave? The other team has a healer dosent mean insta loose, in most cases you could still burst/desynch the other players down in your burst window if planed well.0 -

This PvP doesn't align with trinity roles in practice. You have "support" which is pretty much both healer and tank, since they aren't just healing but also obstructing and drawing aggro. The DD role splits into radically different playstyles like brawler, ranged, ganker, bomber, group...Militan1404 wrote: »all roles should have their place in this game
The existence of a FFA mode doesn't mean healers cease to exist in other game modes, and I'm not the player that was leaving because of healers (I do leave if matches are too lopsided).PC/NA || Cyro/BGs || solo/smallscale || retired until Dagon brings a new dawn of PvP1 -

There are like 30 pages of discussion on PTS forum where players mention all these issues (griefing/trolling potential, shield stacking ballgrps, etc.). The thing is that ZOS wants to
a) take player feedback into consideration more often => players complain about healing OP, ZOS comes up with a solution…
b) experiment more => proposed solution needs to be tested on live so it can be confirmed as good or bad
ZOS gave players a choice: implement this solution temporarily or implement nothing and wait for the U50. Most players voted “implement this solution” knowing that ZOS says it is temporary only, and we trust that devs will keep their word and revert it fast if it proves really bad.
And I’m not so sure this is going to empower ballgroups further. Stacking HoTs is just as problematic as stacking shields and both have to be looked at imho.PC EU - V4hn13 -
