The issue you immediately run in to is premades don't want to play against other premades. It's a poor use of time. They need to fiddle with the system in a couple different ways. At the least I'd like to see a shitter bonus for idiots that get rolled by premades. Sorry for fucking you in the ass, here's a little package and some bonus rep.

This has been an issue in any of these games since the start and they have never attempted to address it.
They never will.

I can't even think of a way that a Tenacity type buff would work. Gearscore dependent tenacity can be manipulated and that's about all you can try to do. Maybe if they lock your gear slots minus trinkets and weapons.

Much easier would be to just not let people queue up with more than a group of 5 for any battlegrounds. It's worth trying in SoD, anyway.

Or just let premades face fuck shitters like it has been for the last 20 years. It's not like you guys are gonna quit at this point.

That was fun but I had no idea what was going on. I just mashed fireball
I learned that priests need mending and raids need kicks

I just think everyone would have more fun if premades were capped at 5 people. People who want to play as a group would still get to play together. Nobody actually wants to manage a 10, 15, or god-forbid 40 person PvP raid, people just feel like they're forced to do it.

Premades should not be penalized. Randoms should not be rewarded for not having the social ability to make a group. If you don't want them dickstomping randoms, have a higher reward bracket for premade vs premade or something, much like premade raids in modern wow get way better drops than lfr.
Catering to the lowest common denominator (in this case solo queue) is a generally losing strategy.

The only reason for loot council at this stage of the game is so the popular crowd can funnel themselves loot.

I've not played one myself but I've grouped with tons of mage healers and they heal just fine while also doing dps.
There is no healer or even really a tank shortage on wild growth so I can only imagine any shortage you see is a problem on your server.

It's not desperate like it used to be, it's just that healer slots are filled last.

Just capping queues at 5 people would solve most of these problems without any kind of complicated solution. Honor ranks are capped by phase, it's not even like there's a big prize to be try-harding for. You can currently cap a char in a single week.

Yes I am a loot whore. No the pugs just won too many rolls, but it's all good. We did get some okayish stuff.
