Thanks It’s going to be a very long haul!

I try to do one of each healer, but with my hands bothering me it’s been much slower going this expansion. My priest is the last of the bunch, but I don’t know if she’ll make it!

Thanks for the advice! It’s always appreciated

I’ve been having a ton of fun with her so far, even though I feel a little bit like I’m stumbling my way through things!

I will have to say, I did give a little cheer for Sansa when Tyrion asked her why she was always so polite she went “Courtesy is a lady’s armor”. I don’t know if she will grow on me more or not. I’ve personally always been a little more like Arya, which is why I think I like her so much.

I’ll be rooting for your heroic Ragnaros kill!

As for your alt Shaman, I also started one too but I stopped because it didn’t really suit my style for healing. Paladins work well for me too however! I actually have two 85 paladins now, both holy for each faction on the same server. I can really understand what you mean by the awkwardness of trying a new healing class different from your own and trying to find your footing with it.

As long as you keep having fun with your Shaman, you’ll eventually get the hang of it as you did with your paladin alt Really great news about your hands, I hope they resolve things sooner than later!

Re: mana feeling a lot more tight on your shaman–that will pretty much be the case regardless of gear level. Whereas on Beru you can count on Revitalize and OOC procs to keep you going even in the toughest of times (hell, even ToL + LB spam is incredibly cheap), shamans don’t really have that sort of fallback. Resurgence just doesn’t compare, especially at lower crit levels, and our “cheap heal” (HW) is just crap throughput. My best advice for mana management, when the going gets tough, is to roll RT’s on multiple targets and just be a little more stingy with your heals. The thing that shaman have that druids don’t is a good amount of passive healing (Earthliving, HST, AA) which you will have to rely on to take players that extra 15-20% back to full. And yes, Mastery, is going to help you a lot more than any other stat.

Best of luck in your adventures with your baby shaman. And do feel free to hit me up any time with your Shaman questions. ^_^

Song of Ice & Fire! <3 Have to say Sansa really grew on me, she's one of my favorite characters….Arya…went the other direction, do not like reading about her, lol. Ah well. I think I tend to enjoy reading about characters that other people don't… Cersei also tends to be one of my favorite characters. ^^* I've just started in Dance with Dragons, but I haven't been making as much time for reading as I would like…. so thanks for the reminder to get back on the book wagon. =D

Good luck with Heroic Rags! A little tidbit on Unleash Elements… The buff doesn’t go away til the cast lands. Therefore you can cast a ghw/hw/hs and queue up a riptide immediately after to get two spells that benefit the same buff.
