PVE solo would be near impossible. We do poor damage and do you really think we are going to be able to channel a heal on ourselves while we are fighting mobs? Other builds have enough dps to power through it. We do not.
PVP- If we had to try and channel a heal on ourselves we would do zero damage, you would just walk up to us and kill us. We can’t compete with you in dps so channeling is a ridiculous idea. I’ve been running around flagged for pvp since level 35 (i’m 60). Anytime there is 2 or more players attacking me half the time I can’t even get a heal off anyway and you expect me to channel it? get out of here
PVE dungeons??? I can picture it now. Whole group dies one by one while I’m trying to channel a heal on the tank. Seriously, in what new world do you play a healer where you are not constantly spot healing group members, dodging attacks, or running out of harms way. There is no way a healer could survive channeling heals in any new world.
