Commando Healer?

Post by Skiggity » Fri Jun 29, 2012 4:01 am

My furthest-along alt, Anna'Molie, is a DPS commando currently, but just as I switched Skiggity from healer to DPS (and was very happy I did so), I think I want a healer in my pocket just for the variety. Leveling seems easier on DPS though, so I might stick with that till fairly late in the game, looks like the important stats remain the same either way. Anyone else doing the Commando Healer?

what i heard is that they are the best single target healers but it's has you like it when you get to 50 or close try it run a some flashpoints for say lv40-45 and see how you like it

We do not have any full time commando healers currently.

I've respeced on Furiel and healed both FPs and Ops as a healer and I enjoyed it. Like Dark said trooper healers are really good tank healing because they can deliver a ton of healing very quickly. Not to mention they have the green healing lazor of awesomeness. When/if dual spec comes in I will likely have Furiel's offspec as healing because I really do like the healing style of the trooper. I would definately encourage you to try it, respecs are pretty cheap anyway, and if you don't like it you can always switch back.

Also if you need any tips when the time comes, feel free to ask.

Cool, thanks Furiel and Dark for the advice, I'm gonna give it a taste.

Another deceiving thread title. I was going to come in and say "My dps goes commando all the time", but thats not what you meant, is it?

It's very freeing and breezy under those flowing guardian skirts.
