Why is it that priests use PoM so commonly, even when they are too far away from their partner to get the jump. Hopefully i get get someone to give some info on PoM's usefulness in arenas. To me it seems like it would almost be a larger waste of mana, seeing as 1 PoM tick really doesnt heal very much. I understand that its an instant cast heal and it is very useful, but why not try to get its full potential and use it to get all the ticks?

instant cast
This, pretty much. One of the consistent problems of disc since a very long time is that pretty much everything but shields (and PoM, obviously) has to be hard casted.
If you have to risk a flash heal against an interrupter (and more specs than ever have them now) you're already in a pretty bad position. Happened more than a few times in WotLK that I'd run out of instants (and Penance), fake cast a flash heal vs dk f.e., they'd mind freeze into nothing then I'd die anyway before I finished the real cast. PoM is on a pretty short cd and not hideously expensive either. Obviously it's a bit inefficient when it only gets one tick but not prohibitively so, beats dying.

Something picked up from PvE - force a PoM bounce with SW:D (so long as you aren't using it to break poly/blind) - also make sure you have no absorb effects active, be it DA, PW:S or anything else :)
In the next patch it will become even more powerful with a 60% increase of healing done on the first heal
