Can anyone point me towards an absolute beginner's guide or give me the basics?
Assuming you're doing 5man,
Do:
1. Keep lifebloom up on the tank,
2. Keep the harmony buff up. If the buff falls off, try to get it up before casting any other spells if you can.
3. Try to keep swiftmend on cooldown
4. Keep nourishing the tank if you're not doing anything else.
5. Use wild growth whenever you see 3 or more players take some damage.
6. Dispel! Most (not all) curses/poisons/magic effects should be dispelled before they cause any real damage. You'll save a lot of mana by dispelling, rather than healing through.
7. Use
Power Torrent whenever you get an epic weapon, and align your innervate usage with that (if you have to use innervate). Its a substantial increase to the mana you regain.
Do not:
1. Use regrowth without omen of clarity.
2. Use rejuv on any DPS unless you are sure that most of the rejuv will be actual healing (they should be missing ~30k hp or so).
3. Use healing touch unless the tank is down a decent chunk of health (40k, give or take).
4. Stand in the fire (:P).
Also, do not underestimate the power of nourish with 3 rejuvs (assuming you've taken
), especially coupled with a
.
These are of course, at early gearing levels, once you overgear the instances, you can use healing touch as your go to spell, throw out rejuvs whenever you feel like it, use wg for even minor damage (and major overhealing) and almost stop using nourish, and still not have mana problems.
