Shaman HEALING gear - (Non)Restoration ShamanFollow

I am currently an Enhancement Shaman, @ level 25.

This char always levels with a friends char, while others I have are played in my own time, so I am never unable to do damage and advance.


1) It's been said that it's hard to advance as a Restoration shaman but, with what I just mentioned in mind, could it be done?

2) Strength and agility are most important to an enhancement shaman, but which sort of gear is most valuable, to healing - either in terms of what it does for you or which named pieces are good to go for? Intellect and... ?

3) I drop totems, melee when I can and off-heal. I sometimes use outfitter (the addon), so would like to have a set of healing gear on my Enhancement Shaman, to jump into when things get serious. Would the healing gear be of the same sort that a full Restoration Shaman would wear or is there something better that I could wear, to get a burst of healing (if there is such a thing)?


Thanks.
