Hello everybody! I just heard something and it was so disturbing that I have an urge to talk to you right now. Is it true or false that there is no healing in Warhammer Online?! I just can't believe how any game can function with out healing power. I mean everybody would be dead in a few seconds, right? Warhammer Online - No healing?

It is true. I was stunned to hear it as well, but after the initial shock I decided to check this game out. I recommend you to do the same, because you will be surprised how this game runs without healing power. Everybody is much alive and kicking. I was thinking the same thing like you, that now everybody will be dead in a matter of a couple of minutes, but I guess I was wrong. Maybe we are putting too much emphasis on healing power, when it is something else that is keeping us alive. I would say that something else in our case is skill.

There are definitely healing classes in this game, but they are aren't healbots. For healers to be effective they have to get in the middle of the fight and bash a few heads in order to have better healing power, such as the warrior priest or the dark elf disciple.

Hmmm, I'm very anxious to test Warhammer combat myself. I've always tended to play healing classes.

... it's not as simple as no healbots or fighting healbots. The healing class I played doesn't have enough energy to simply heal heal heal... but they do have an ability that replenishes your energy at a very fast rate allowing you to basically sit there and heal. It's not something that's going to work well in pvp though ~ only pve

you have it wrong, the point of WAR's healing system is that you must take offensive action to gain the power for any kind of significant healing. If you play WoW, think of it almost in terms of a Warrior's rage. the more damage he does, the more rage he gets, allowing him to use more and higher cost spells. you can do damage without using any rage abilities, but it's WAY less than if you do use them.

translate that into power for heals over crappy heals, and you have the basic WAR system

the idea that it will suck in pvp is erroneous. Mythic cares way more about pvp than pve. If you know anything about them, you'll worry about it not working as well in pve. for pvp, they blow every other company out of the water.

ofc there are healing clases.

but the are more combat oriented than heal botting. I can't assure how it's at high levels but i am sure the importance of healings will increase through levels

I'm glad they did thise approach rather than just sling a class in the game and make it heal everyone. Nothing wrong with trying something new/
