How do I counter the heals?

[EdwardRO]

Hi, I am a lvl 7 choppa that took part in a scenario and I could not dmg anyone because of the insane heals they got. Also my teammates could barely kill them too and they could easily kill us...I tried killing one mage but he outhealed my dmg! What can I do? Is a black orc better for this job?

T1 isn't balanced whatsoever.

A good healer is worth 3-5 other players in t1, and they're unkillable 1v1. You need heal debuffs, interrupts/knockdowns, etc. which you won't get until t2.

Enough AOE (chop / magus) can slowly kill groups in t1 because healers lack good group heals and AP generation.

yes T1 is not balanced at all, and more a kind of chaotic push and shove gameplay.
But later it still wont be easy to kill a healer solo with dps, because of his detaunt and enough healing and absorb tools, to outheal your damage.

With a Choppa on middle mastery path (2hdr), you can have incoming and outgoing heal debuff, cooldown increase and knockdown, so all tools that you need to mess up a healer. Still its possible, that you wont be able to kill him solo. But you will definetly take him out of the game, cause he will be forced to keep himself alive with all the trouble you cause him

Tier 1 as the others have said is not fully balanced and people don't get the tools to fight healers efficiently yet.

Also very important that the game is designed around group play, and expects you to play in a group. This means you also having a tank, a healer, but also a co-dps player who has access to abilities like Heal Debuff and Armor Debuff to be able to burst down targets.

In Tier 1, Witch Elves and Marauders have access to Heal Debuffs that I know top of my head
