The healer edition of the
ill-fated Ask The Devs series has been taking quite a bit longer than previous editions of the series. The healers among us took notice of that and hit the forums to find just what the
heck was taking so long! Late last week, Blizzard's Nethaera explained that the answers were delayed due to the devs' being
preoccupied with other obligations. Today, community manager Kaivax announced that the answers would be
released Friday of this week.

Ask The Devs 11 Healing Answers Coming Friday
We will be posting a new sticky thread with the answers to thirteen of your most popular questions (on the subject of healing) on Friday, July 15th at 9AM PDT.
That may the simplest, most straightforward blue post we've seen in nearly seven years of
World of Warcraft. No qualifiers, no "Soon," and no wordplay. High-five, Kaivax. You may be my new favorite.

I wouldn't hand out any high-fives until we actually see the answers. They did say Friday, July 15th, yes, but they didn't give a year. We could still be waiting until 2016 for our answers!

This is one HOT potato for sure!

4.2 spirit gear maybe possibly?
Kaphik Jul 11th 2011 11:22PM
That was already addressed, and quite well in my opinion. Yes, I am raiding on a priest, too.
Alain Jul 12th 2011 12:38AM
It was addressed saying that healing Priests should be gearing up via valor points, BOE (gold) and rep gear while their buddies would be gearing from raiding?
Worst case they should beat the loot out of mages, locks and SPs and reforge spirit ?
Sorry, I politely disagree it was addressed.

It was addressed via a whole series of snotty blue posts that effectively read "l2p, noobs."
Unfortunately, I think that's about all we're going to get until they realize holy priests have all but disappeared from the Firelands.

"It was addressed via a whole series of snotty blue posts that effectively read "l2p, noobs.""
Huh, that sounds like 80 percent of blue posts.

Yeah. I don't know if it's just rose-tinted glasses or what, but I seem to remember a time when the devs didn't talk to healers like we were idiots. I had my issues with GC when he was posting, but I don't remember feeling as insulted by his tone as I have with the current group of blues.

The reason for this being so long, it the meeting they started two months ago with subject: 'how are we going to tell them this...'

The last thing with such a delay was the Paladin Q&A, and I have such fun memories of that...

I like to spin while summoning my flying mounts, and continue spinning my little heart out while taking off. Why have a boring take off?

Gah ... WTB Delete button. Commented on the wrong browser tab. Downvote for great justice.

I voted it up because it somehow seemed fitting.
