Healers need love

Picturing.......
Round 1: Daka 20k heal
Round 2: JC 20k heal
Round 3: Lumi 20k heal
Round 4: EE 20k heal
Round 5: Barriss heal or Chirrut just sit there
Not a top 20 team, but definitely one to give ppl heart failure........

2 reasons.

In PVE, EA wants you to use your entire roster. If you had a great heal+control+dps team you would never need more than 5. Being able to solo the Rancor was not intended.

In PVP, no one wants time-out teams.

Healers will always be situational at best.

Not a 20k heal, but a chance just like a crit, that will heal 20k.

It could work, maybe on lumi, zeta X% chance to 3x (or some multiplier that makes sense) heal on the target (or lowest health, or maybe random below 100%) toon when she uses her group heal.

You are wrong. Healers had value before level cap and gear increases, omegas and zetas. Healers have not been scaled accordingly, they tried to add protection to keep balance, but you still have problems. Healers need to restore protection, and hp + prot kind of need buffs and to scale with damage. Health should not increase linearly while damage increases exponentially. A 90 level cap and gear 12 will basically make tanks as useless as healers.

I'm a launch player. Bariss was meta for a second after game was released. Lumi was decent for a half second.

Their value has been pretty much the same since Sid ruled the arena.
