I am loving the new spec, and still using it. We are currently 1/7 HM in firelands – and it has worked well for me thus far. Let me know if you have any questions about how it works on certain encounters, and I’d be happy to see if I can offer some feedback! :)

Been reading your blog for a long time, tho never written to you before..

But now I’m really curious what you feel about the “new” spec for firelands? And how far you’ve come content wise :)

I’m a restodruid as well and I don’t recall how many times I’ve changed my spec after Cata released. lol..

Also I have to say, I LOVE your blog, and I’m here every day :) Hoping you had something new to say. hehe..

Lot’s of love from Cocomania, Latenight, Runetotem

As such, it’s still only particularly useful if you are primarily healing the tank. Sure, you’ll have it trigger more, but I don’t really think its role in our toolkit has changed all that much and it’s usefulness is still fairly dependent on your given healing assignment. Some will get more use from it than others :)

I really do like being able to dispel magic, but as Benarus said, raids have so few dispellable effects. I think there were a total of 3 fights in T11 that I ever used dispel on and I havent seen any in Firelands so far.

Living Seed is performing better now that direct heals are encouraged more and we have 200% crits, which makes me happy :)

There are a grand total of 2 dispellable effects (both magic) in Firelands boss encounters (and I think 1 on trash).

The first is on the fire bird; it’s also an interruptable ability dealing an initial 37-40k unmitigated plus 4 ticks of 10k damage unmitigated (the dispellable part).

The second is on raggy; it’s an ability that should be avoided, and chances are if it’s not… the initial hit will kill the player anyway.

If I had to drop it from my own build I would probably cry!
