We think that for now we would increase heal cap a little
if you increase the cap without finding a balance, makes the whole no sense. Currently you need no man behind the keyboard to play a healer because the healoutput is already to strong. I would suggest to gather some Ideas to find a reasonable balance without simply increasing the cap.
This situation is only caused by one really big bug (or at least bad bad balancing issue) with Briar Shield 499884 caused by Briar Life 499938. Because of this passive skill Briar Shield increases the heal by nearly 100% which is totally unballanced and can't be intended like this...
This issue leads to the situation where heal output is far to high with Druid/Warden. In actual instances and worldboss the healing output is challenging without Briar Shield but I guess every single group uses a Druid/Warden or at least an alt to buff it since it doubles heal...
If an increament of the healing output by Briar Shield 499884 is really intended, than it should be reduced to an maximum of 10-20% or be removed completely since it is already very strong because of the other effect of Briar Life 499938 which let it do an heal AoE by receiving damage.
In my opinion, this passive increament of heal for 15 minutes is not balanced and just completely op...
Initially, I wanted to suggest this issue of Briar Shield later more detailled and seperately, but I think this must be discussed in this context already now...
I know that maybe some people will hate me for bringing this issue to discussion because they like this way of easy healing, but when I came to Arcadia, I was close to quitting my game play of Druid because it was so boring because of this balancing issue / bug which is every higher than on official servers because of +55 instead of +50...
I dream of the good times where playing a healer was challenging and high concentration was necessary when healing a whole raid alone, but those times are gone with Briar Life...
I would love to see those times comming back since it would make the game more interesting again in my opinion
