Just as an example of the usefulness of the new Hand of Sacrifice spell, I'll try to list the TBC fights where it would make a rather large difference for raiders progressing through a zone:
SSC:
-Hydross pre-transitions
-Leotheras' Warlock tank
-AoErs on Morogrim
-Shaman tank on Karatress
TK:
-Al'ar's Melt Armor on P2, preventing burst dmg on the tank in case of resisted taunts
-Kael'thas' Pyroblast would be made trivial to survive
Hyjal:
-Kaz'rogal during a stun (doubles up as free mana)
-Azgalor before a silence
-Archimonde before a fear
BT:
-Naj'entus on low HP players (very dangerous, probably only Divine Shield is active)
-RoS good for all 1 and 3, but especially good for phase 1 on Enrages
-Bloodboil on soft Fel Rage targets (dangerous, raid has to be aware)
-Mother 10%
-Illidan P2 and P5 enrages, demon form for the Warlock tank
Sunwell:
-Kalecgos/Sathrovarr 10% Enrage (dangerous)
-Brutallus Stomps, just gotta make sure to load up on HoTs
-Felmyst Corrosion
-M'uru Sentinel tank when overlapping Spawns' AoE
And obviously, the new Hand of Sacrifice can be used on any difficult pull. The PvP and instancing utilities are also endless. But this goes to show the overall utility of the spell and it'd be a safe bet to say that WotLK raid encounters will have plenty of mechanics where casting Hand of Sacrifice is beneficial.
Oh ya, suggested nomenclature for the new spells: HoSac, HoSalv, HoP and HoF.
