I agree, OP. I played a game yesterday with a great Sedna player who kept my UB nice and shiny. The player didn't have too many kills by the end of the game for obvious reasons, but I wish healers would get some type of recognition other than my thanks. We had an Oak, too. After pushing a little too far into enemy territory, he was usually right there to back me up with Shield. Maybe some points are in order for the players who help in the defense of others?
Wouldn't it be pretty useless? Like most healing is self healing or from Priest minions.
Really? I think priests do an awful job of healing. I'd rather have a good Sedna player. She can keep you in the battle way longer without having to self heal. I find that more valuable than self healing or healing coming from creeps.
