Heres our setup:

O = Tank
X = DPS (Or healer)

XXX
XOX
XXX

BOSS

Couldnt get much easier! After having tried a few setups, the 3x3 grid is exponentially superior. Remember, its strength lies in two words: chain heal. Three shamans cast three chain heals - always directed through the main tank. There is no dedicated raid healer - your three shamans will have all their chain heal 2nd/3rd bounces topping the raid up instead. With a typical 7 healer setup the healing looks like this:

- 1 druid on burn healing
- 1 paladin on burn healing
- 5 MT healers. (3 shaman, 1 priest, a paladin)
===
- Of the 5 MT healers, the 3 shamans are always (and only) casting Chain Heal through the current MT in the 3x3 grid setup. These shamans, although aiming heals at the MT - are also the raid healers - yet there is no dedicated full time' raid healer' needed.
