Do people play healers willingly in RPG games?

[Vincent]

Lately I got tilted merely because of me playing a support in Overwatch and no one checks my back.

So, do you play healers or tanks in RPG games such as WoW or Smite?

[Quaz]

K, first, what does tilted mean?

Also, it depends. I usually like to play dps characters that deal massive ammounts of damage very quickly. Another upside is that they tend to be things like rogues that have abilities such as cloak and stuff. Tho I do like to play a healer sometimes, especially in games like Smite or Overwatch becasue being able to keep your whole team alive is a massive advantage. It does make you a prime target however, and healers tend to be kinda... squishy which turns me off from being a healer sometimes.

I like being healer in MMORPGs. It's usually pretty chill beacuse you only need to watch the tank. Of course there are those fools who run off breaking LoS and pull too many mobs, then try to blame the healer.

My main is usually a ranged, utility DPS type though. I like to do more than just face roll pure DPS. I enjoy doing stuff like crowd control/off tanking and defending the healer. In WoW my main was hunter and I could do all that and still pull more damage than most pure DPS types. I'd often get friend requests from the healer after pugs because I was usuall the only one who ever kept an eye on them.


I don't play MOBAs because they're too full of poor sports who can't handle losing.

I sure as heck don't mind being a Healer/Support. It's nice to be sure you have a solid healer doing work, minding agro, using proper spell rotation, familiar with the use of hotkeys for target selections. Plus, I always enjoyed the fact that, as the heals, I had to turn down groups left and right. Never a wait for me to get into the fray.

I enjoy healing/supporting classes, however I don't know many games where I can...

Are you kidding? Clerics are practically a religion in their own right, they've got T-shirts and everything.

In vitrually any kind of RPG you will find them, players dedicated utterly to replenishing the HP of hard-charging idiots who seem determined to deplete it as quickly as possible. I don't play cleric myself unless nobody else will, but my brother does, and I play Paladins enough to see what a challenging task this can be.

Of course, noobs will always forget about the cleric, they think they do all the work. They stay that way until they manage to piss a cleric off, and no amount of praying will save them then.

I love me some spicy unconventional supports in mobas. It's fun when you theory craft builds after looking at the team composition. So you know what you are getting yourself into :)

Yeh, it is quite funny when you're the only healer and someone pisses you off so you just don't heal them and let them die over and over and make a point to heal every other person on the team xD

Lmao I've seen quite the opposite. The healer and carry were flaming each other for 20 mins. Then he types "hey heal me " and she heals him and support him till the end. Seen this many times. People want to win games rather than get stuck in one for 50 mins doing nothing but trolling

Eh, if someone's gunna be an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to me or the team, ♥♥♥♥ em.

[※Tapu Lele※]

I'm a healer in WoW as a minotaur.
