Question 1

What do the letters in the list mean (S, A, B, C, D)?

Accepted Answer

S — The strongest classes at the moment; A — Strong classes, but with certain drawbacks; B — Average classes that are still popular in raids, but require more specific conditions and player skill; C — Weaker classes that can clear mythic raids, but will have lower HPS compared to stronger classes; D — The weakest classes at the moment.

Question 2

How is the healer meta calculated?

Accepted Answer

We base the calculation on the top 100 players for each class and their raid-clearing efficiency (HPS). The ranking only takes into account effective healing — it excludes overhealing. This way, you can see how much actual healing output a given class can provide.

Question 3

Why are some classes ranked higher than others?

Accepted Answer

A class's position depends on multiple factors: the total amount of healing the class can provide; the presence of strong defensive/support abilities (shields, survival tools, buffs); synergy with other popular classes; ease and comfort of gameplay (mobility, the ability to heal while moving).

Question 4

Why is my favourite healer ranked so low?

Accepted Answer

There may be several reasons: the class has been nerfed by recent balance patches; the class requires high skill to unlock its full potential; the class may be balanced for mythic+ dungeons; the class lacks important group-support abilities; low popularity among players.

Question 5

Can low-ranked healers become strong?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! The developers continuously work on class balancing. That's why we update the rankings every 8 hours, so you can always see the current state of the meta.

Question 6

Is it possible to play a low-ranked healer and be successful?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can play any class regardless of its ranking and achieve high results! If you have a solid understanding of how your class works, know its strengths and weaknesses, and are well-prepared for the raid, you'll definitely succeed.
