giving advice
Author: admin
My tree is my main character, but lately I’ve been gearing up my hunter too. While doing these runs, I’ve sometimes grouped with other resto druids. I can’t help but watch them and see how they’re doing.
Usually I’m dying to start giving advice.
I don’t want to tell people how to play, but it’s hard when I see someone struggling to heal a fight I know I could handle with relative ease. When this happens, first I check their gear. If they’re in a lot of blues and some greens, I shrug it off and figure they’re working on it. I also look at recount. My two main spells are Lifebloom and Rejuv. LB alone counts for 45-55 of my healing in almost all cases. I ran UK with a decently geared tree last week who was struggling to keep up. Her top spell was Regrowth.
I’ve never tried a healing style other than my own. Rejuv, LB stack, Regrowth (if needed) on the tank as he’s running in, then sit back and watch out for part/raid damage while keeping the tank’s hots up. I’m starting to work in Nourish as a quick tank pick-me-up. This works very very well for me. Is this an optimal approach or is relying on the bigger direct heals just as valid?
Is it ever appropriate to take someone aside and say “I know what you could be doing to make life easier on yourself,” or something to that effect?-Be who you are and say what you feel, for those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind.
-Dr. Seussthank you! Very helpful!Here is a post that I made asking the same thing, it’s fallen off the front page but it still holds relevant
I just dinged 80 with my druid (took a few months break when 3.0 went out). I leveled balance and I had in mind I wanted to be resto after I hit 80. I hit 80 saturday and I noticed that we have too much healers in the guild and not enough dps (go figure!).
I don’t feel like going back to feral, so I’m either planning on going healer anyway or simply continue moonkin. While leveling I really loved the feeling of playing that chicken.
Now, I took a peek at some “gear guide pre-raid” and I won’t ask questions about that. But I didn’t find the answer to my question. How do I know I am heroic ready ?
As a healer, I have almost 1400 healing bonus, with enough mana regen to give my innervate away, (which I guess isn’t much) but I healed heroic VH without problem and HOL/HOS tend to get boring since I can keep everyone alive pretty easily. Someone told me, as healer, under 1500 sp heroics are not good.
As a moonkin, I did h-hos and h-nexus and my dps sucks. I leveled in my t4 healing gear and the only replacement that worth it I found was in Icecrown where I dinged 80. I have less than 20 crit (my gear sucks, I know
).
So, I just want a quick answer, what numbers should I aim for to be heroic ready ? As healer and as dps.
Thanks a lot!
