I'm wondering about people's philosophy on class balance as it applies to healing. You want some spammers and some fat heal cancellers, but are there hard numbers of each we should be shooting for? Is it wise to try to have people do things they're not ideal for when the classes are weird?
We've been killing gruul with some regularity, typically with 2-3 pallies, 2-3 holy priests, and a mixture of tree druids and resto shamans. Usually 7-8 healers total, and typically holding a flasked tank to at least 16 growths and unflasked to 14. Last night what we had was 1 holy pally, 2 holy priests, 3 tree druids, and a prot pally healing, with the holy pally being replaced by a holy priest after a RL issue. We've had folks healing out of their standard role before when needed, most notably holy paladins pretending to be gheal-cancel priests, I guess I had thought a heavy dose of tree hots could fill the role of the spammadin somewhat, but it was just a disaster area. Eventually a druid stopped with the tree business, did his best paladin impression, and we scraped by. Does this setup sound workable, or should we not even try to run without a couple holy paladins?
