Hello brother/sister shaman!

As per title; after rocking out as enhance (and loving it) I've started to collect my resto set. Just wondering what gems I should be adding tomy gear.

I am a JC, so dragon's eyes are definately options. The +27 agi are great for enhance, btw (if you're hit capped)

SP, MP5 and maybe haste.

that's it I belive, there is no need to gem for crit as you will get lots form other raid members.

There's no maybe about haste. Shammy heals are slow, speeding them up is very important to being able to contribute fully.

I put 19SP in all my red sockets. After that I do either haste/mp5, crit/mp5, or SP/mp5 to get the bonuses. However, this is simply because all my gear is maxed out and stats really aren't that important right now, I may adjust them depending on if I need more of a stat for 3.1 raiding.

MP5 is going to be the most important. Doesn't matter if your HW has a .0003 sec cast and crits for 50k, if you have no mana you cannot cast it. So for building a set go for MP5 and some SP until your set is complete, then you can adjust to your needs.

mp5 can be most important. but you have to balance for the highuest content you're seeing. If you're frequently on the edge for mana, then mp5 is your biggest need.

I tend to be doing raid heals, which means CH spam, in our 25 mans and I'm never close to being out of mana, so I started gemming (and in a few slots, gearing) for haste and crit, letting my SP drp down from 2400 to 2000 to pick up the other stats.

Now, if I was asked to be primary heals on the tanks, I'd probably have to excuse myself and run to the AH . . . but with a couple of holy paladins in the guild, that won't happen for me soon :)
