I have been working on a healing set for a second role i can play in helping my guild. I am up to +1223 healing and have 124 mp/5.
My question is the plus to healing how is that figured? When i cast my FoL spell on it doesn't crit. It generally heals for about 1k, which is only 500 or so above the normal spell. Just curious about this.

Great link, it explains all my questions.
Thanks
Thanks
A side note, the coefficients are tied into which spell you're casting, but in a more general sense, they are tied to the amount of time it takes to cast a spell. Again, generally speaking, a spell that takes 3 seconds to cast will have a much higher coefficient than a spell that has a 1.5 second cast. An additional note to that rule is that when you take a talent (say talenting the 3 second cast to make it a 2 second cast) it does not change the coefficient. I used to get that question all the time when people would be talking about the corruption talents in the warlock tree ("Does taking the talents reduce the coefficient?"). I don't think they covered that in the wiki page, but its just one of those aspects of warcraft you should know as a spellcaster, regardless of what class you play.

Just a quick point here and some may disagree with me. Your mp5 seems more than enough, higher than mine in fact. I would recommend that if you can, drop some mp5 for more +heals. As your +heal goes up, your FoL heals for more and more to the point where mana is no longer a big issue other than for really long boss fights.
When my +heal was at about 1500, i found myself using a few mana pots every boss fight. Now, my +heal is up to just over 1750 or almost 1900 when fully raid buffed and I never need to pot other than for those 10 min boss fights where I might take one.
its probably 125 while not casting, which is a useless stat. The only way you could get 1200 healing and 124 mp5 while casting is to basically have 0 crit.

That's a really good point... my bad. I would say that if you had decent spell crit (20-25%) you won't need much more than 100 mp5 (while casting) unbuffed. It's true up to the first few bosses of TK and SSC anyway.
