Changes To The Heal Ability

For all of those people for and against healing, let me tell you this.
It is a PvE based game.

Everyone is supposed to help someone else out, not to fight them.
We do have a PvP arena, the Nether, but the game isn't very focused around that.

Do you want to solution to the mage heal problem?
Remove it, and replace it with a different spell, perhaps a wind/air based skill that would make the mage focus around magic, and all classes would be easier to balance and are on the same playing field.

That is the only solution,
And if it is implemented, many people will rejoice that mages were "nerfed" and the mages will cry that mages are useless.
But I will garentee that EVERYONE will regret the removal of heal.
and EVERYONE will want it back.

Why?

You take out a core piece of Wynncraft and the idea behind PvE.
Healing is essential to how PvE works, especially in a team/cooperation challenge.
Without healing, everything will seemingly become harder, especially bosses.
Mages are essential for helping others, it is the class that sacrificed damage in return for healing.

That I believe is the core principle of the kit.
To help others at the cost of their own damage.
But, playing mage as changed slightly over the past few updates
Without heal, Mage just becomes another class, another damage dealer with nothing to help a team as significantly as heal can.

Everyone needs health. If you have no health, you are dead. Literally.
Without Mages, the only reliable source of healing would be potions or life steal/health regen.

Both has their flaws.
Mages encourages teaming and cooperation.

I say that heal is where it should be.
It might need a tweak here and there, but the core principle of healing others should always be there.

In my opinion, heal is pretty important, and if they change it significantly, there will be many, many problems.
I have seen it happen before.
I do not want to see events repeat themselves in Wynncraft.

But, when reading the comments about the rage of "heal"
I will leave you with one thing, for those who don't like the current state of heal.

Nerf the Healing per Level to 30% current health, 40% current health then 50% Current Health
But, at Level 3, instead of pulse healing, you increase the amount of healing everyone recieves if you are below 50% health

I disagree with the change I just wrote.
But it is food for thought, if you guys want to think about it.

My last words.
DONT change heal.
You all will regret it later
Everyone.

As much as I completely hate mage, I think instead of completely disabling healing others, maybe only heal them 25% of the general heal it would actual heal. (If you can understand that)
For example, if they were gona heal 6000 health, instead they would do like 1500

 

Good idea, but we're not planning on disabling healing others anyway, that would ruin the whole point of support mages and their healing :P We shouldn't remove heal, we should change it, balance it, and make it better so then people will stop making nerf mage threads like these.

 

That would ruin wynn because the it would be to ubdered powered and it all redy heals allis less

 

Have fun dying/spending 100 LE on pots if this gets added. God guys... mages are support not squish.... and all you do is whine even though MAGES FUCKING HELP YOU LIVE IN FIGHTS. You wanna complete the Hive? Looks like you never want to with this suggestion.
