I've got a lvl 90 Holy priest that I will list as healer and dps for a celestial and Ordos weekly in the raid tab of the social window. [As background I haven't done any heroics or instance raids on him but did some instances while leveling. I say that to say I have a decent concept of group healing but not a lot of practice.] Usually these groups are pretty much form-get-everyone-there-buff-kill and move on. Still I would like to do proper healing. I have and use Healbot but it is probably not optimized. Here are some issues/questions: AOE healing: I try to have 1 available when the burst damage comes from a boss but if I have more is there a rule of thumb for putting it down for the melee at the boss or further out for the ranged? Tank Healing: I try to keep the heals up on a tank that bounce between players and prioritize healing a tank that takes damage but as far as I can tell there are not healers dedicated to the tanks so I never know if we have too many healers focused on that or not enough. Am I missing something? DPS Healing: I prioritize the tanks and throw out AOE heals when burst damage comes. If individual dpsers need heals past that I throw out what I can. The heals I use have a cast time though and it seems like by the time my heal is actually cast another healers has taken care of them and they are full or they are dead. I could use my heals that bounce among players but then they might not be available for the tanks. Tips and ideas would be appreciated. Brian
