Quote:Close I have no problem with. Beating me, that I do have a problem with, because I can't shift out of nuke form to heal
Any shadow priest that shifts out to heal, does any healing, and shifts back into shadowform has just spent a bucketload of mana and global cooldowns not doing any dps; that we have the versatility to do this -at the expense of both the damage we can do AND the healing power we provide- should not be a convincing argument. But since you already feel that any class that CAN heal should not be able to match you for dps by gimping their healing, that's another dead-end.
I'm not familiar with warlock trees, but I was under the impression that dps warlocks (and they do exist) were more destruction than affliction based.
Quote:Given the extraordinary power of healing in WoW as a whole, I don't think that's too much to ask.
Can you clarify what you mean by "extraordinary power of healing"? It's as meaningless as me saying "the extraordinary power of dps".
Quote:that doesn't really make up for the fact that frost has terrible scaling and poor base damage.
The same is true for mind flay, which is why they're fiddling around with the damage multiplier it receives and breaking things in the process. It needs a lower multiplier but higher base.
You don't know what you're talking about.
