What kind of +healing should I get for 10 mans. It seems like I pick up healing items here and there (both cloth and leather) but my spellpower is sitting at 2k. Granted I don't blow my money on the latest and greatest enchants, but re-gearing for tank and healer has really taxed my resources.

I know there have been people who tell me I can't heal H ToC, then summarily eat their words when we are done.

2k SP should be fine to get you started into ToC-10; but I can't say people wont demand more.

Only other advice would be to make sure you have a good amount of Mp5. Something upwards of 300 while-casting unbuffed, plus a good regen trinket and/or insightful earthsiege meta would do nicely.

2k is plenty. I have healed 25 ToC with no problems as a raid or tank healer with about 2.2k SP.

Gratz browning!

Ya I'm tired of the GS thing too, but you got into a ToC-10 with less than 4200, so that's awesome. Most of the PuGs on my server wont take less than 4400, which can ruin my day.

Perhaps the priest was on levitate duty? I know we stuck ours there when 3-healing on Northrend beasts. If not, well that could be scary too. ;-)

The way I understood it was, if you are levitated during Gormok, when the snowbold's fire bomb spell hits you, it'll be bugged and not cause a fire on the floor, but will simply knock you off of levitate. If you keep everyone levitated that can mean a lot less damage for some people during that portion of the fight.

I thought it was one of those things that blizz was going to fix at some point, but it's usually the reason why our priests healing numbers are lower for that fight; well that and bubble. ;-)

See, why doesn't **** like this get out to wowwiki, this is like the third tip that makes all the difference in the world that I've only heard of by word of mouth.

What're the two other tips?

Icehowl's aoe knockback range is smaller than his hitbox. So if your DPS are careful about it they can dps without ever taking the damage or losing the uptime. Also his arctic breath can be trinketed and if the person who is being targeted specifically trinkets, it breaks on everyone else.

That and the Faction Champs info about aggro tables that I posted a few days ago.

That's your problem there. As an Aussie guild, we have fun with this pretty frequently. Not everyone in the guild is an amazing raider (by the not standing in the fire scale) but pretty much all are capable enough to get out of the way. Yet we still regularly have problems with this and all our hunters are ready at max range to chain their taunting shots and range tank him for a bit. Most of our kills include at least one person getting hit - it means we have to work twice as hard as those lucky North American 50ms guilds.

The trouble with 1200ms (I raid with 400 usually) is that it isn't necessarily a constant 1200ms. Little spikes will punish you a lot more at that latency than if you were at 50ms.

Just have to do your best - i'd same to blame the lag if you die, but we all do that anyway even if it was our mistake

I normally raid with ~100ms and ~50fps



There is only one solution to this...Headshot and then...dance.

Speaking of spell power and such, how come I'm only at 2100-ish in full T9? I know one trinket doesn't have spell power on it, but the mana regen on it is just too damn sexy. I also know that my weapon and off-hand needs an upgrade, but as it is right now, it seems whenever I land in a group without thieving ******* casters, they won't drop.

So here I am, with 350 mp5, 2100 spell power, 350 haste and 16% crit chance. It seems less than overwhelming. Our Shaman healer just reached 3k spell power in equal gear. Am I doing something wrong? Should I gem for pure spell power? Spell power and mp5? Spell power and spirit as I have until now?
