Thank you everyone for your feedback!

I took everyone’s advice and spec’d Earenn Disc. Hopefully I’ve done it properly, and glyphed it properly

If not…I’ll just blam the tank for being squishy! *cough*

Personally, I leveled 60-80 as holy-disc hybrid. it was 3.0 back then but now the build would look like:

Perhaps not the best, but definitely fun and viable with the best mana regen available (and that means less downtime = more fun). Worked quite well for me tbh. Spiritual guidance gives a nice SP boost which is terrific for both healing and dps (don’t forget it was granted an 88% effect increase in wotlk making it a very strong healing talent early on). I recommend using PI everytime you feel a big pull or damageload is incoming. A ‘use’ trinket can also be a great help. In wotlk, in early instances, you’ll often find tanks that have the skill but simply not the gear to hold 3-4 mobs. A short healing burst can do wonders to help out the initial damage while dps takes one or two mobs down.

Disc! Indolence leveled up to 80 disc, and I’m still dual-specced with a soloing disc spec and an instancing one. I will likely make the soloing one something else; shadow or holy, once I’m done questing for golds.

For levelling/5 mans definitely disc.

Besides casting penance at annoying PuG members and watching their characters wince and recoil helps release some frustration towards them :p

I wanted to do the same thing, leveling one of each of the healing classes and actually healing on them in a raiding environment. Instead I’ve ended up with 2 level 80 druids, both resto, a level 30 shadow priest and a level 15 or something shaman. I haven’t even tried a paladin, heh…

Definitely share your healing experiences plox! I’d love to read ‘em. ^^

For 5mans and while leveling? Disc, in all honesty. You’ll get more bang for your buck and it’s MUCH more forgiving for lower gear levels (which you’ll have while leveling; both for you and for your tanks

Holy is aaaaaaaall about the raid healing, baby. Pop as much AOE healing out as you can.

(Of course, this hasn’t stopped me from going holy and leveling with it, either. Either works, Disc is just easier.)
