well its to be expected why would anyone just let healers heal. Your best bet is to hang out just behind warriors and heal them. Sins wont really come near a aoe'ing warrior so much. And you should be able to outheal range sometimes while the warrior wrecks shop. Anyway just a suggestion because any healer hanging in back i personally kill.

This happens to me too when I am poorly positioned. And sometimes it happens even with good positioning, but sometimes other healers can get me through the abuse until I can contribute once more.

Cleric healing in war fronts is not broken. Try using a shield with 13 points in Justicar in combination with healing invocation. Valor helps too. Also, make sure to face your attacker or else shield won't work.

And here I thought I was the only healer jumping around like a deranged grasshopper.

I have had the misfortune to have lived in the nightmare of these posts. I have most of the tier 2 gear, all the war front planar attunement, prestige level 20, and I still have a hard time competing with the continual stun, impede, silence, trap, die. I tried using burning spellstones and they are completely useless. I will stop making them. I have read that this is only happening to newbies with no gear or low level gear. I am here to tell you that this is not the case. There should be a cool down timer where one would be immune to all controlling effects after have been affected by one. Take for example the spell trepidation which only works until damage is taken. The other control effects should be the same or similar.

Most of the people telling you that feel T2 PvP gear and P20 is still "low level gear"

I just hit P36, and have 6/7 Heretic armor, Heretic jewelry, and the 1H mace, with Retributor Tome and Wand. It works mostly as described above. Ignore a Rogue or two. Ignore a mage or two. And then die to one Warrior in ~15-20s. Two Warriors is often nearly instant death (<5s).

I have found 38 Puri/28 Warden to be my most survivable spec. Restorative Tide + Overflow + Soothing Stream has helped a lot, on top of SotA, GotA, and Frozen Deep One Tear procs. Restorative Tide is actually the biggest self-healer, based on my logs. Apart from SotA/GotA of course ... those two abilities defeinitely are the core.
