take total shield value on your spell summary page, divide by the number of procs of glyph of pw: shield (which is the actual number of shields cast, instead of absorb events, which is what it...
so they changed the amount that Pact tics for...this might effect logs on our shields...any good examples pre/post patch 3.3.3?
there's also the 5% buff that now applies to shields, so it might be...
there's a thread about this:

i asked this qq on elitist jerks, too, and got thrown in the trash for it, so I have no idea whether...
I end up raid healing from disc because of precisely everything in this thread so far...it took me a while to learn how to do it well, but disc is actually well suited to raid healing in this...
nice read, anamaeth...that makes total sense...I'm usually assigned to shield the pact folks, so the rest of the shield I cast on them would be attributed to the absorb effect on linked...
the above post is why there's no way that the shield isn't being fully used...the shadow aura alone would eat the shield in just a few ticks, and the shield lasts 30 seconds...4500 per tic mitigated...
that's what my math kept saying...even with heavy resistance, the shield only last 3 seconds according to my math...and yeah...that's why i'm asking about the bug...twins fight exposed the problem,...

logs says my shield average is 2500sih on BQL....in even normal fights, it runs that or higher, and fester runs 3500-4k usually when i'm raid healing (actual shield is closer to 9-10k, but...
so I've noticed on my logs that my shields don't get used as fully as they do on deathwhisper and fester and marrow, etc when I'm raid healing....this seems odd to me because raid dmg is constant in...
it helps me to develop some prioritizing in 25 mans....so when saurfang casts blood boil, I keep that target shielded, for example....rotface, the person with the disease that spawns the goo gets...
When I came back to wow a year and a half ago, having left wow just after AQ40 dropped (before BC), I was astonished to find that priests were no longer the top cookie cutter healers, and that the...
the folks I was using renew on were already shielded, but several were taking dmg from (avoidable) things like the mall goo, etc, so pom/renew worked well because they already had the weakened soul...
pw:s, penance, flash heal....ftw
In heroics espeically, when I need to keep the tank up through a spike and then toss heals at the dps that stand in fire, this is important...disc is a...
while the orange ooze was chasing me last night in Putricide, I got renews and shields on half the raid...lol...was kinda fun
haste and renew...ty for the clarification there, newfie....I thought...
rofl...glad to see this...I'm fascinated by the fact that palys are so uber that even when blizz fixes something that is of dire importance for disc, it helps them....but hey...I'll take it...

there are two reasons I say it lasts longer:
1) if you're running holy, u prolly have it glyph'd
2) if you're running holy, u prolly have more haste than most disc
so yeah....those are two...
so i picked up my last 2 pieces of t10 today just to try this out before it shifts....had been holding onto my t9 2 piece for a long time
5% bonus to pw:s doesn't even keep it scaled with the...
as disc pr in a guild that has some kickass holy palys, I am often assigned to MT heal, but usually I'm assigned to swing heal...on almost all fights, I keep shields up on tanks and poms bouncing,...
*&^%$%*&^#
kk...thanks guys...I kept looking at it from logs and stuff, and I couldn't see what mechanic was being used...boo backdoor disc nerf
so I don't care whether you think the buff/nerf is "good" or not...debate that somewhere else please..lol
I'm trying to figure out how the 5% healing buff is applied in ICC...is it spellpower...
lol....yeah I was flaming, btw...sry about that...I'm remember why I stopped reading forums like this
my point stands, tho....the unique thing we bring to the table is our shields...as nikki...
on the haste discussion, I shoot for 3-400 haste, but end up around 500 because its just on sooooo much of my gear....borrowed time is not a nice buff, it is an essential one that should be up all...
when we run with 2 priests, we just make sure that we work out which tank we are going to pom.
I use Vuhdo for healing, and have it set to track my poms and other preist's poms, so I've watched...
