		<description>As a recently turned 80 priest with semi decent gear I have yet to be out healed in any raid I have been in.

Im supporting a Deep holy crit spec, focused on raid healing and popping flash heals.

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Onyxia&amp;n=Lanksaviour
(I switch between holy and disc for arena, still a lot of work to do in arena!)

Its not uncommon for me to be +10% more total heals than the closest healer, to do this I spam COH every 6 secs (using the +1 COH gylph), throw renew on all tanks, throw prayer of mending at one tank, and use prayer of healing whenever required (using the POH hot gylph) - Topping up tanks with flash heals when something crit proc&#039;s - Its mana efficent, im healing at 2500-3500 hps for the entire raid with about 10-20% over heals.

If this interests anyone I can go into further detail and provide some macros I use.</description>

		<description>Day of repeated comments:

My opinion on grammar, as a college writing teacher, mind you, is that meaning is more important than form. I don&#039;t nitpick my students on small points as long as their grammar errors don&#039;t interrupt the important process of making meaning :). There are bigger fish to fry.</description>

		<description>Oh, and for durids--Regrowth spam is apparently back (It&#039;s only &quot;back&quot; for me. I used to spam regrowth on tanks back when I seriously needed to L2P, i.e. in Karazhan days). Oh my, that&#039;s as much of a revolution as the new prominence of Flash heal.</description>

		<description>Ow! My branches still hurt from that big smack with the nerf bat that druids got last week. You&#039;re right, Matt, we&#039;ve all been nerfed. So I suppose it&#039;s time for a big group hug and a collective effort to learn to play (again) in our new environment.

I have my moments where I declare that the sky is falling. Well, even if it is, good reliable players of any class and spec will always be useful in raids.</description>

		<description>This whole expansion thing kind of makes me think of NASCAR.  (Wondering if I might be the only WoW-playing NASCAR fan out there.. lol)  

But, when the Car of Tomorrow (now the &quot;Car of Today&quot;) was first introduced, there was all the whining about the changes and how it was going to be awful.  Then they started racing it, and the complaints continued about all the horrible problems with the new car.  Now, they&#039;ve been racing it for the full season this year.  There&#039;s still some complaints here and there, but for the most part, people have accepted it and are adjusting their game to the new car.

Change is inevitable - adapt, and move forward and life will go on just fine.</description>

		<description>Hehe, Aurik pointed out that your feelings are by definition biased before I could. This also feeds into your little hat-tip to me. But, I&#039;ll take it - you made me grin this morning.

Anyway. Of course we&#039;ll still heal. And you made some great points. I&#039;ll just sit tight, and as soon as it becomes apparent what I need to do to be the best healer in my raid, guild, or server, I&#039;ll start working toward it. Making it there is the question, but that&#039;s always the objective.</description>

		<description>The mages are idiots if they think the class is extinct in Wrath.

If nothing else, we have the best raid wide debuff that has ever existed in the history of everything. 10% more spell crit, raidwide? I DARE you to find something better.

That said, the healers seem to be the most borking mad out off all the communities I troll. More tears from them than anyone else, even mages and warriors.

Even resto druids. This has to be the first time I&#039;ve ever seen druids legitimately QQ about anything (Legitimate here meaning actual QQ. Druids have complained and such, but it&#039;s never been actual QQ).
