So I decided to take advantage of the dual spec opportunity. I chose a resto build and an elemental build. I'm level 80.
I chose resto because I'd like to start healing; my guild is a little short on healers, plus I've thought about it for a while. I'm not planning on raiding, just doing instances and heroics.
But, I've never healed before. Much of my gear is +sp, +haste, mp5, etc; I've been collecting it for a bit now. Unfortuneately, I've sold off all my other stuff, so I'm kinda stuck now.
My question is: If I try to "get my feet wet" by healing lower level instances, am I gonna peel aggro off my tanks if they are 5-10 levels lower than me?
Secondly, I specc'd elemental becasue it seemed a better fit with my gear (since spell power affects both heals and spells instead of having it split out +heal +sp). I've never played an elemental either--have been enhancement since day 1 ont his, my first toon. I figured I'd try questing some first, (I've only just got to Icecrown, and I understand there's lots of quests--the achievement is 175 quests).
FWIW, here's my armory: Bgredsox (Doctors of Philosophy)
When does Armory update? I made my changes two days ago, and they aren't there....
I'm 57/14/0 for elemental and 0/16/55 resto (from what I remember)
