A lot of us enjoy playing support characters. THATS OK.
I enjoy putting on Well and running Div and wear boots of the assembler.
A lot times those tracking heals have helped a weaker or new player get through a raid or encounter. LFGs can be… interesting.
Well isn’t over powered and if you don’t play right you can get killed in it.
So why do we run it? We like if. We enjoy it. It fulfills that healer power fantasy.
In short Well is popular because the power fantasy is popular. Not because it’s “mandatory”.

You can use many combinations of classes and subclasses, but, if you use 3 warlocks using well of radiance, well the boss fight, and every other part, is a cakewalk. If you use NO well at all, and do not intend to cheese, it will be significantly harder. So many instances where well makes a super hard encounter into a joke. Realistically, using well of radiance is kind of cheesing. Then again, well won’t save you in Glassway or Lightblade, whereas invis will save you. So, every class has its cheese, titan has lorely.
