First off, my gear is good enough. 1500 SP and I'm always forgeting what mana even is.
I'm doing great in early raids and MOST heroics.... save Nexus and Gundrak. I feel that that last boss in Nexus and the second boss in Gundrak (heroic in both) were made without thinking about resto shams (or holy pallys for that matter). Both require you to move. You stop, you take buttloads of damage. Nexus isn't so bad due to the fact that the AoE is pretty low. But the second boss in Gundrak is basiclly this, everyone takes lots of damage but if you move... you just take a little less.
If your a priest or druid then you saying, "Yeah??? And your issue is??". Well, as a sham I have two HoTs. One only has a chance to heal on a hit and can only be on one person, and the other has a six second CD, heals for as much as a mageweave bandage, and takes a GCD. My only AoE heal is good for maybe two people, requires them to be somewhat close to eachother, and needs 2.3 seconds to cast.
I've tried every rotaion I can think of, but needing to spend 1 sec moving and even 1 sec to cast a LHW on me every other heal or every two heals still comes down to luck on crits and range.
Now I know it can be done, I've done it, but Blizz needs to think about it's boss mechanics and how they will effect different classes, especially healers and tanks due to every group having one. Somthing that is pretty damn easy for one healer/tank class shouldn't be insanly hard for another.
