You give yourself enough healy talents to get the job done but spec for self protection and increased damage, enough that soloing really isn't an issue. If anything I think it makes for a better healer at 80 -- as you're coming into healing with 'being flexible' and 'self preservation' already in mind. <BR/><BR/>Verses the frail little floundering priest you sometimes get in end game, where they're reflexes are dull and they're wimpering at their tank who lost aggro 'help, help get it off me...'Freyalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07841003454504876216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-78984351996776345052008-11-13T06:43:00.000-06:002008-11-13T06:43:00.000-06:00So...if all the healers respec.

Who is going to be healing the 5 man dugeons between 70-80?<BR/><BR/>Just by doing dailes, I know that my restro shammy and holy paladin are able to burst down and kill mobs rather quickly due to the change in spellpower.<BR/><BR/>With my pally, I will level ret..but with my shaman...it will be just as easy to level restro as any other spec. That is in my opinion...=PWTFspaghettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10304180361553774455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-47273996017063660522008-11-11T14:20:00.000-06:002008-11-11T14:20:00.000-06:00I would almost agree with you except the changes f...I would almost agree with you except the changes from +heal to spellpower would put some bite into the burst damage capabilities. <BR/><BR/>I can't comment on other classes, but I have played many a paladin, including full holy spec. Would I level holy? No. Is it viable? I believe so, with JoW refreshing the mana pool and holy shock thrown in when the cooldown is up, I believe you could get a lot of burst damage. Not the efficiency of prot, or the overall damage of ret, but you're a healer.Fishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17653252976648480240noreply@blogger.com
