Is there still a stronger preference for summoner healers or priest healers over warden healers? Or, are there specific function-heals whereby warden healer can still triumph over other healing classes? Maybe, for example, compass? Or for raids, summoner heals?
Druid healer is so good now that it equals or even outheals a summy. Considering the 40% dmg reduction that u can run on mana now compared to what the summy has, I'd say druid wins there already on terms of survivability.
Where summy is good at is healing percental with Blood Ties, no matter your CS level. For druid I'd say it scales highly with your imaginary CS level.
Both outheal priests for the reason that priests pay back heals for shields.
The druid has an awesome aoe spell that increases healing on your allies by 30% that not only helps the druid, but also other heal classes around, which greatly makes the druid more important. The aoe healing of the druid also seems so good that I am doubting wether summy can win this one :s
One very good abiliy no other heal class can overdo is summy's Dark Veil. It's so good that it's basically game breaking for raids, compasses, and other things where players are supposed to die, but able to stay aive and pass tactic checkmarks thanks to Dark Veil.
What exactly is warden class good at for this patch? Sup warden/Pvp?
Definitely healing, but PVE DPS is also very strong. It's basically the standard ranged dps build with poisoned thorn and the melee rubies that makes it so good.
For pvp support I think it also gets the job done but Psi supp does it better, so it's usually not taken for pvp supp.
Lastly, can anyone recommend a warden healer who has done good heals for this patch 9.1?
Pygmi, Penance, Minun(?)
