Hello all! Well our server(Detheroc) finally unlocoked the alchemy lab today!! Free epic gems for all! LOL. Well i got to thinking about healing and spirit and which way to go or what to stack more! I have done lots of research on it but I am still at a loss. I am always in the MT group and usually only healing him and maybe throwing a few LBs out where needed.Our guild has all of ssc on farm, tk besides Kael, 4/5 mh 3/9 in bt down. I made a post on our guilds forums to see what my guildes think Here. I think its members only so ill paste what i wrote there. Thanks in advance for any and all help or advice!

First, here are my base stats, no buffs besides my alchemy stone!

2072+Healing
593 Spirit
660/233 mp5
47 Haste
8352 HP
9365 mana

Those stats are after i upgraded all of my gems to epic gems this morning. After i did this i started thinking, should i go for all +healing and lay off the spirit some, or should i continue to stack spirit for the rest of the healers. I mean all healers get 25% more healing on whoever is in my group, which is usually epi yig cav or whoever the MT is. With my spirit now, all unbuffed, yall healers get 148.25 more plus healing if i did my math right! That is my team player makeup.

Now, this is the real question, should i keep doing what im doing and be a tree tool(lol) to help everyone else out? Or should i go all +22 healing gems, ignoring socket bonuses and whatnot(besides a meta when i get one again). Right now, just from gems, i have:
231 +healing
50 Spirit
5+ Intellect (just for the socket bonus on t6 chest).

If i went all straight +22 healing gems it would be something like this from straight gems:
+352 Healing.

So i can grab another 121 + healing at the loss of 50 spirit(which is only 12.5 Healing for others) along with some mp5. I wouldnt loose all of my socket bonuses, some of which are + healing or spirit so these numbers maybe a little bit off.

Any suggestions, ideas, comments? Help out the old tree hugger, for the guild!

Ps. Heres a link to my armory if you would like to suggest any upgrades or anything like that. Varthan of Detheroc.
It looks like the new 11 healing 5 spirit gems are showing up but my plus healing is right on!

If i posted this in the wrong spot let me know so i can change it over! Thanks again
