Wondering how people finding gear upgrades.. I'm finding upgrades to 700 gear which breaks 4 piece bonus is actually decreasing DPS. My experience.. 4 piece 685 gear > 700 gear.... Pretty sad IMHO that new content actually is taking us backwards

my 2 cents about Heroic and Mythic Raid healing and EoE vs AS Its all about the boss and your raid team composition. If you have a ton shields coming from Palies and Disc priest and the damage is such that you spread the raid out then EoE is not as effective as AS If you have few shields (lots of druid, monk, resto shaman in your team) and the damage pattern is such that the raid stacks up .. then EoE is awesome for the extra spirit link totem. It is horses for courses.!!! Also if you take AS the 5% buff is across all your heals effectively giving you a 5% buff. Add in Gl

Thanks Pandacho I see my mistake was in adding the last line In summary it shows that for me, Riptide + Chain heal even with Glyph of chaining and High Tide is not really viable given it tendency to over heal and not given it doesnt always hit 6 targets I wasn't trying to start a discussion on play style, get feedback on my logs (I did spend lots of time looking over them and working out what I need to improve) All I wanted to do was share the HPS and HPM data since there isn't any actual data on HPS or HPM the forums. I didn't want to offer an in-depth discussion on talent choice

Wow.... Feel the love from trying to share something All I was looking to do was share some practical results from one boss ... I made no claims. All I could find on WoD HPS and HPM for shaman was opinion and theory craft which did not consider overheals or the reality of how many chain heal would actually hit. Didn't I say "For me" "other may find it different" in my comment?. At no time did I try do define how others should play I will let you experts do that! Yes iLevel will change things, so will secondary stat mix, so will healer composition, and especially raid composition

Hi Everyone, This is just a FYI post if you are looking for information on healing spell HPM and HPS in raids base on my personal experience.. others may find different I haven't done much healing in Highmaul as we seem to have an abundance of heals this expac but I got a change to spend a night healing on Normal Emperor. I speced into High Tide, Glphy of Chaining and Glyph of Riptide to see if it was viable to raid heal using Chain heal in a 12 man normal team. These are the numbers I got from the actual logs: HPS HPM Over Heal
