My fear for is that lifebloom rolling and hot stacking being the unique mechanic it is, even if our other heals are competitively effective with the other healing classes, we'll end up in the same role we have now, simply because we're the only healing class that can stack and roll hots. Nourish and Flourish will have a much bigger role in 5 mans (and 10 to some extent) but I am not sure if I see our raid role changing much, even though Nourish and Flourish are great. Nourish and Flourish would have to be better than the offerings from the other classes to be used over rolling hots; and that won't/shouldn't happen for raid balance.

Flourish fitting a 6 sec rotation again is awesome. It'd see use certainly, but as a personal preference I'd like to see the healing style move away from the set cycles of heals we do. I don't care for the scheduled and unreactive feel of healing as a Tree as we cast our 4 (or 5) beat cycle. Maybe that's just me being tired of the cyclical nature, and I should move on if that's what the class is meant for, and people enjoy it as such.

All in all, these really are an amazing set of changes; I hope they make it live mostly intact.
