Hi guys.. Long time reader, first time post, so be gentle ;)
Firstly my armory link:
http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/stormrage/Jemaris/advanced
. I play Disc' Priest...
Now to my problem... Whilst healing 5 man ZA & ZG I seem to have trouble keeping people up (mainly DPS, not tanks) & looking at my stats, is my haste woefully low? I've been using askmrrobot to reforge my stuff & shifted all crit to Mastery or Spirit & also the haste on stuff too, mainly to mastery. As you can see in the armory. Should I remove reforge on some stuff to get my haste up to a more respectable level. I find Greater heal takes an age & it just doesn't feel right, say compared to my resto druid which I find much more comfortable in 5 man Heroic ZA & ZG.
I appreciate I can't stop noob DPS standing in poison pools (like this morning when Hunter & Dk did it then raged at me when they died, even though I did keep tank & the other DPS up & downed Venoxis), but think if my haste was higher, I could possibly have saved one of them. Anyway have had a few situations where I've felt that if my spells were just a bit faster, or a lot in GH's case it woud have made thee difference.
I don't seem to have these issues in my guild 10 man runs (we're only just doing BWD so far).
So should I reforge a bit more into haste? (or more to the point remove some of the reforging that had haste originally). If so, about what figure? 10% maybe? I know you can't tell me what would feel right for me, but a ballpark figure that you run with may be of assistance.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply Gnomee, some good food for thought there. I admit I'd forgotten about the shadow tree talent. I used to have it. I may re-spec back into that & see how it goes.
I'm working on my Archaeology to go for Tyrande's doll to replace my Mandala, but may get the JP one in the meantime. Mana isn't too much of a problem. I use my fiend & Hymn every boss fight & think I manage them 'adequately'-ish :)
Think I'll free up some spirit to haste too that may just be a case of changing items back to their original state.
Nail on head with trinkets... I almost ALWAYS forget to use the on-use part of my trinkets. I'm remembering slightly better using the Jar of Ancient remedies now I've added it into my 'Class Timers' addon.
When I pop Shadowfiend & Hymn of Hope should these be done in a particular order? Think I read on here somewhere before but needle in a haystack now & should I use Power Infusion with these generally? (I don't like to have too many cooldowns macro'd , but if it's the best time to use it, why not & I do tend to slack remembering to use PI too!)

The trouble with shields is people can stand in fires thinking they're save. Then the shield runs out, they are debuffed, they drop dead and you get kicked.
