Now before anyone of my fellow healers get a heart attack... No I won't be giving up Resto Shaman as my primary spec (for now) as I have played Resto Shaman since Vanilla WoW and giving it up right now just somehow seems wrong.
I still thoroughly enjoying playing as Resto Shaman, though I do find that blizzard has somehow killed it in recent times. Especially with the stupid focus on Chain Healing, when both Druids and Priests have AoE healing beyond anything we are currently capable of :(
Blizzard are also giving more focus to Healing Wave over Lesser Healing Wave, this I find is killing the shaman as a healer, purely because Healing Wave is generally used for tank healing (not always) and paladins are so imba at single target healing that replacing them with a shaman is just stupid :(
As a healer I've always played raid healer since being able to spam multiple Rip Tides and LHW was almost unbeatable versus over classes trying to do the same thing.
Blizzard have somehow killed this joy in 3.2.2 and many times I've found no joy in healing, and would just watch Top Gear during the fights! (expect the big important ones.. .. o wait.. we don't have any of those at the moment..)
This brings me to my decision to respec to Enhancement! I know that because of my current gear I should be more suitable for Elemental, but the truth is, I really don't want another ranged lame ass dps char that I never invest time into.Going Enhanced forces to me to get new gear, it really puts me in the middle of fight! I just played my new spec for 40mins this morning and I fell in love with WoW all over again (Blizzard had somehow killed this love somewhere between 3.1 and 3.2.2)
For now, I'll stick to Resto Healer as main spec, but once TotC really become farming content (which it almost is), I'll start thinking of getting my enhanced fully up to scratch.
I will never fully give up healing, but I'm really looking forward to taking this Melee DPS role places..
Right! Back to grinding gear.. (on the AH! Mhuahahahaa)
