They increased the base mana cost of renew by 4%. You could always put points into Mental Agility to decrease it.

I think if you are going in with the mindset of using smite to heal melee then it would be best to include Penitence, Evangelism and Archangel in your build. I figure if you are using smite enough,...

Could the usefulness of renew talents be revisited, aside from the blurb saying 'if you use it a lot'? It seems in Ulduar hard modes and ToC that renew has been proving itself to be more of a go-to...

Because of the Val'anyr proc, Blizzard changed the HoT heal mechanic so that all ticks actually heal now regardless if someone is at full health. The druids in my guild went from 30% OH to 80% with...

My guild has people with gravity bombs go to one side and light bombs to go another so you are never in danger of hitting a spark tank (or anyone else for that matter) with a gravity bomb.

I have to say, that this seems a bit lacking in foresight. I am a huge proponent of renew, but putting renew on everyone seems like a massive waste of mana and global cooldowns that could be...

For Ignis I just renew the tanks, slag pot person and occasionally melee taking random damage. Before Flame Jets I try to get a stack of 3 for serendipity and then after it goes off I do a PoH...

I disagree. Renew is an excellent spell, especially since empowered renew can trigger holy concentration. Here is my wws for a recent raid:

You are not even considering the amount of over healing you'd be doing by casting PoH that much. Especially with the increase in healing to CoH, I just cannot see that many situations where you'd...

I disagree that it is spammable, just because even with healing prayers it still costs over 1400 mana per cast. Also, regardless of the change to serendipity, the cast time is lengthy enough to...

I am still not convinced of this for a 25man raid group. In a 10man, yes it would be awesome, because the chances that it would be overwritten are reduced. However, in most 25 man situations, there...

I think it depends on the fight really. For fights like Sarth +drakes, where there is a lot of damage going around, I have seen renew being #1 on my healing spells just because a few ticks seem to...

I have never noticed a problem on the vortex with PoM's. In fact, I usually get one or two Surge of Light procs to go with it. Even if it only hits two times, it is still worth casting.

Circle of Healing: I am perfectly fine with the cooldown. It was the spamability factor that made it such a crutch for many priests and eliminating that is definitely the best choice of action. I...

You are going under the assumption that everyone pots once per fight. If that is the case then yes, the stone offers much more versatility than the bell. However, if you eliminate the mp5 you gain...

Overall benefit. Blizzard put the one pot per fight rule in so mana pots would be more of an "oh crap" button rather than an addition to our mp5. That is how I look at them now and I think it is...

You could probably go with a different trinket other than the Insignia of the Horde. Otherwise, your gear looks pretty good for a new 80.

As far as your spec, you may want to sacrifice a few...
