Be a better healer
As a healer in the World of Warcraft you are very likely to get many invitations to instance and raid groups. However being a healer responsible for the lives of a group is a daunting task to many players and requires a lot of skill and knowledge. As a result many players do not feel comfortable healing for a group. Really, once you have the gear and spec, all it takes to be a good healer, is a little knowledge. That's where Byron "Messiah" Mudry steps in, to provide this guide to healing priority for all those healers out there that collected the required healing gear, put their talent points into their classes healing tree, but then became lost or unsure of how to group heal.
Most of the 5 player instance adjustments still factor in when you go to a raid, however there are some additional ones. The biggest adjustment required for raids is the fact that there will be multiple healers in the raid. This means that in all likely hood you will have healing assignments, which will override your basic priority. Some of the basic assignments are: MT/OT Healer, Group Healer, Raid Healer, FFA Healer.
You can find all the details in our Instance and Raid Healing Priority Guide
