In the down time, I switched to PW:S and spammed it across the raid to absorb incoming damage. I found it worked quite well, although it showed up very badly in the meters (since PW:S still isn't really 'supported', aside from certain versions of Recount). So -- what did everyone do? Did anyone notice any neat things about the fight that you can use to predict incoming fireball damage?

Due to our small roster, and only have 1 raiding Shadow priest, I raid dual spec holy/shadow. Therefore the switch to disc for this fight wasn't one I could make. Our raid configuration consisted of 2 Holy priest, 2 resto shaman, 1 holy paladins and a disc priest. (basically our entire healing core)

I'll post WWS but its really wonky for us and isn't splitting anything up atm. (I'm Vanyah)

We broke the raid up into two groups and a third tank for the big guys. Third tank had a single paladin healer.

Side one had Disc Priest, Resto shaman, Holy Priest.
Side 2 had myself(holy) and a resto shaman.

Anyway... I used mostly shielding/pom for healing fireball and a mix of pom/flash but mostly CoH and PoH for healing the idiots who would stand in fire for more than a few seconds. As there were only two healers on my side (myself and a resto shaman) I would also flash heal/shield/pom the MT but his dmg wasn't nearly bad enough to force me into spamming on him. We had one death on our kill fight and that was our raid leader standing in 3 ticks of fire while yelling at someone else for taking 2. LAWL.

This fight was fun and easy to heal, I didn't find it required me to be discipline. All in all, I am loving the versatility of PoH now even if it is a mana hog. I'm also much happier with my mana regen than I was on test, though my gear has improved as well.
