The War Within | TOP TIPS For New Healers! | Start here.

I want to learn how to heal but I always tanked and dps so it feels so weird for me to do so xd

Is there any addons that can clearly let me know when people need dispelling Or somthing that clearly shows what debuffs are on other players?

Hey good video even if it’s a year old! I like that you mentioned being consistent. There’s nothing wrong with meta chasing, especially if you have that competitive drive in you, but the majority of us are casual or moderate players. I’ve played MMOs since I was a child, and I am firm in the belief that if I don’t enjoy my class, I won’t enjoy the game. Every class and spec can clear normal/heroic and decently high keys with enough knowledge and practice. My guild is doubting my decision to make my alt a Resto Shaman right now, but I’m eager to prove them wrong!

Hi, I just wanted know what add on you're using to make your chat log in the bottom left corner look like that? If anyone could let me know, I'd appreciate it.

bro is holly priest too

Huge respect 🫡

i'm new to this game nd mmos in general(i have played them before but never got to endgame on any) and i just think this is too much info at once 😭😭 healing in other games i have played was so much easier

how do you get the live player frames for your carater and target?

Should I use HealBot Continued with Clique?

As a returning player who is a brand new Resto Shaman, these tips were great :D got a sub from me my dude. Not related to Healing; what's the UI you're using? The font and everything looks so clean.

Mouseover is godsend

my friends say I'm never allowed to heal when I'm max lvl because they say we have two healers we don't need a third but I'm loving lvling my healer what do I do

My experience with asking other people questions could have been better so far.

Coming from classic, I've realized this is an entirely different game in graphics and mechanics. I tried to ask someone about the profession, most specifically, 'Why can't I make anything below level 20 or 45 with my leatherworking.' his response was, 'If you don't even know, why are you playing the game? LOL’

And my second question was, 'How do I get back to Kul Tires from SW as the boat took me to Dragon Isles instead? I've tried asking several people that question, but no one responded. Finally, on the fourth player, I followed up with 'Are all the people on this server braindead or something’ I know it was rude, but I also wanted to test out if my whispers are delivered or not cus I was getting suspicious usually u don't get ignored on a classic like that at least they would have the courtesy to respond me to say ‘I don’t know' Anyway this guy finally replies to me just to smack talk back cus I insulted him and I had to say ‘So the only time I can get a response from people is when I insult them?’ And he goes back to his braindead form (Yes, he was a druid), keeps running into a wall, and ignores my response.

The funny thing is that people don’t have the energy to be helpful, even to say, ‘Just wait for the other boat,’ which I found out later. But when they’re even lightly insulted, they can devise a snarky two paragraphs to own the person.

Thanks for this. Returning to WoW after a decade and man this helps.

I'll update this comment when i find it, but i have made a macro for all healing spells that is basically a get all benefits macro, all u do is cas the spell in either mousover>ur target>yourself in this priority order, u can customize it to have focus target added between target and mouseover for cleanses. This way u only need to replace ur heal spells, with a version that has this macro, this way u can be much faster at healing yourself or ur target by simply moving ur mouse away from a target, or clutch heal urself when ur dpsing without having to mousepver anything

Been two years now, since the lvl reduction have a Zandalari Holy priset I used to run Wotlk dungeons with, now its just 38 in BFA mode, plenty of CC and vicious mobs….bosses are easy though

The best beginner tip
goat man <3

I wana make a holy paladin but so nervous 😢

The UI thing is helpful I think some people, but I have a very unique way of playing with tons of keyboards. It has taken me years to hone in perfect my method, but I have easily and 25 to 35 keys that are programmed into my muscle memory, which I can easily click in a split second. And the hardest part for me, sometimes is certain healer classes have a little bit of button bloat, so I am not always able to find enough keys to assign everything to but an add-on would only take away from the key bindings that I already use everything easy to hit on my keyboard and mouse is already spoken for.

The only downside of Clique is that if you set it to mouseover, then you can't cast on yourself without having to find yourself in the group display aswell, meaning that occasionally you waste precious time.

white people love saying Arnolds full name the only chance they get to say N**

I'm using the in game ui and for some reason my clique keybinds arent healing the unit frames I select.

How do you make party members health bars appear like in video?

I've been a resto druid since vanilla. Just play what you want.

I’m returning to healing after a long break. It’s kind of tough to absorb all of the spells I get to play with, so I started with a core set of 5-6 core spells that got me through normal dungeons w/ no problem, got used to them as my go-tos, then started adding others for utility or special circumstances.

you dont need clique anymore now you can go into options and search for "click casting" there you have blizzards version of clique
i started healing this expansion on evoker and i dont use much addons
i healed my first 20s this week feeling more comfortable now that i know the dungeons and what sequences to use on boss mechanics like hyria in halls of valor or the elemental in nokhud
not sure if its like that with all healers but with evoker you need to be prepared for the big group wide aoes you cant play very reactive

Nice mog

I try and research a dungeon that I want to run before getting into it

if I may ask, what did you do for your UI? I don't know how to get to those green bars of health i tried one run and it was really bad using the default WoW pictures to the left is really difficult

Thank you for this valuable video. I am new to healing but I've been playing WoW a long time as a hybrid so I understand a little. Going to be trying my hand at a Holy Priest in Dragonflight.

Thanks so much. I played for so long as an altaholic. I finally settled down a little to raid for the first time doing dps in SL. Hoping to try some healing out in intense settings soon.

If you love a class and it's not meta right now... don't worry, the meta will change. Master the class you love because when it does become meta, you will be highly sought after and could really make a name for yourself on your server

I have an issue. You say to set your party frames and optimize UI but I don't think you explain how. I know this isn't a UI setup guide, but it would have still help. I am new to WoW and add-ons in general. I come from ESO on console I might add. That game is very different to this game which is tab target. I don't know how to make my screen look like yours. It looks clean and not messy but still looks like it displays the info one needs.

Here's a solid way to start healing. Get Clique setup with heals mapped to your mouse. Left, middle click, right, middle scroll up and middle scroll down...plus the same buttons mapped to Shift +. That's 10 heal related spells right at your fingertips, you'll use more later of course. I'd make the 5 unmodified ones straight up cast heals and the Shift modified ones support heals. (HoT, AoE, shields, etc.) Then let your guild know you want to transition to healing and practice with them. They have a vested interest in you being successful, PUGs do not. I have healed since day one of WoW and one day I expressed an interest to try tanking to my guild. I was met with great laughter but in the end they all supported the attempt.

Major thing id suggest even to you video creator... shift your raid frames to either under your feet or to the right side of your screen because if you place it on the left or in the default location your hand is naturally on the right side of the screen as your hand is right of your keyboard so if you have frames up left you are crossing your hand and your field of view to look up... keep it where your hand is and keep your eyes in the middle of the screen where your character is

Great vid, thanks! Really like your UI for the priest. Any chance you could share the string? :)

What Raidframes do you use?

The best beginner tip i have is use the Proving Grounds, get some Muscle memory going, optimize your UI and macros between attempts to get gold. That way you can set things up perfectly to suit you without the anxiety of a group.

What are the pros of using Clique instead of HealBot?

Sometimes i still forget to heal myself :(

Thanks for the video, I've thing that really helped me when I started was to learn what each tank does. It made it a lot easier to heal DKs when I had some way of seeing how much runic power they had, for example

What class did you decide on? I want to see if your tier list is same add madskilz. He is saying holy pally has mana issues

Great vid. The UI and tunneling tips are great. My healer friend also recorded our keys. We would watch the replays when we had a disaster to try to find out exactly what led to the wipe. We were mostly pugging as a healer tank combo and it helped us figure out if it was our problem or a pug DPS causing an issue.
