Very few boosters in Arena,
 
PvP Gear progressive is awesome
 
Nerf to healing
 
PvP gear actually being good for pvp.
 
Will be resubbing

I don't. I still can't heal. :(

Definitely not still bitter.

			They did well in everything except the pvp stats, if healing stays this way no one will be healing in PvP very soon because it's just not fun for healers. If you wanna try playing it you can enjoy the thrill of barely being  able to heal yourself up while 2 wars and 2 ss chase you around (this is an exaggeration by the way, it should only take 1 well geared player to drop you) and tell us how fun it is. The previous gap in pvp gear has also gotten larger due to their adjustments, I like a lot of things about the patch but a lot of it didn't fix anything.

So I disagree with you and the first thing you do is try to taunt me into showing screenshots of my pvp power to prove your point? I bet you don't even know the max pvp power a healer can get currently so what would it do for you? Why don't you show me a screenshot of your PvP healer if you know so much about healing and then I'll show you mine.
 
Long story short, my pvp healing is above 70% and my rating is also above 1800 but I had to sacrifice a lot of support power to get there on top of the reduction we're already receiving.

So how do you get into pvp anyways? Without gear people are complete deadweight. In practice battlegrounds gear needs to be normalized so people can at least farm the prestige blues. 
 
Even then with blues I still get killed before I can break out of a cc, healers cannot keep anyone alive and frontloaded burst classes like warriors, stalkers and spellslingers pretty much win the match depending on whose team has more.

You can't heal, or your character can't heal? You'd be surprised how many who think they suffer from the latter actually suffer the former. ;)

Um. My character can't. Snarky as you may be, spellslinger healing is incredibly screwed up right now.
 
Using C1 vitality burst and sustain while surged results in the full cooldown as if it was fully charged.
The above also causes the telegraph to stick to your screen until you successfully cast the ability.
Activating spellsurge mid cast on a heal will cause the focus drain debuff, despite not affecting the potency of the heal itself.
Many heals aren't activating healing aura.
Void slip is busted.
Probably missed some more.
 
If you want to be extremely pedantic, I probably could technically still heal, it would just be an incredibly frustrating and dissatisfying experience, as well as playing extremely sub-par, all because of a patch that they knowingly released with these bugs in the first place.

Kind of like being meh sustained DPS in dungeons/raids.
 
But hey, we got a strong charged shot so class is fine right?

Simply trying to find out why you cant heal yet other healers are doing amazingly well.
 
Pretty sure its a gear or skill issue and not a game mechanic issue

Couple that with the fact that our gear is runed for pvpd and not pvpo, it makes the one guy's request for a pvpo screenshot laughable at best.

Pay the 1800 teams for carry.
 
They made it first, they control the ratings. Want 1800? Gotta pay.

I think our gear is more focused on stats that "should" have done something beneficial if their stat system was worth a crap.

			Go read the threads on this subject on the PvP forums. When even non-healers are saying healing was over-nerfed and that teams are better off bringing a well geared DPS instead of a healer it should be an indication that something is horribly wrong.

One dev pretty much said that pvp O is not working for healing power.
 
Yet another says differently. I am confused.
 
AllI know is I currently get higher HPS using PvE gear than going full PvP runed set while in BGs.
 
Plus I notice next to no difference between 30% PvP D vs 12%.
 
I have not seen a true PvP healer that isn't royally upset atm, DPS are making stuff up.
