In my opinion WP (what i play) is good but not so good right now. RP and AM can heal while moving and they have more "tools" to take AP so more heals.
What's your opinion?

I've seen an AM heal over 500k in an SC. I don't think I've seen anything but a Runie post numbers near that. Not sure if it was just two amazing healers happened to play those classes, or if those classes are the best, but as far as I know AM's can currently heal the house down. I think a Shaman can but I haven't seen a ton of them break 300-400k in any SC's lately so time will tell.

Depends what you are doing.

WP/DoK are amazing for the grp cleanse and fast gheal. Z/RP are great for Bubbles, survivability, and healing procs, AM/Sham are great for Kiting, and Spike heals. Each have their weakness'.

I don't think there is one super powerful healer atm. Though am/sham are the kings of healing numbers atm, that doesn't inherently make them the best.

I agree this. WP/dok with sovereign can compesate a bit their weakness in fact on live i loved it to play. I had a RP too and for my playstyle i find it better until wp takes a better sets

Yeah I think if you are Order a WP with that 20% increased healing can actually do some decent burst healing but some of those AM's literally never die lol. I know I'm salty but it just means they are doing their job really really well.

I actually saw a shaman last night in Dragonwake dancing around 3 people trying to kill him. It was the most beautiful thing I have seen aside from every WE/Sorc I see walk by.... errr sorry I lost my train of thought... what was I saying?

what are you talking about: AM/Sham are extremly OP compared to another 2 healers. RP/Zealot is normal, but DoK/ WP was nerfed to hell

Yeah the DoK/WP has become much more of a cleanse bot and less of a heal bot. I would say that their tankiness now with less heals is definitely more balanced. If they ever made AM/Shaman easier to be killed it would make up for their superior healing but who knows what they have in store. You will never go wrong with AM/Shaman that is for sure, especially once you get the life tap mechanism figured out.
