Recently we have added a Intel stacking Holy pal into our guild and I have ran Uld with him and have even enter the new instance with him. I have seen him jump to the top of the healing and then sky rocket up into the over healing charts. You say you end fights with little over half your mana well a non intel stacker who knows how to play his CDs can also end a fight with half or even full mana. I have gone threw a fight with some none healing gear on and still was healing effective (top of the charts 30%) and little over 3/4 mana. Those who have played holy paladin longer have noticed ways to be efficiant heals and not have huge mana pools and spam holy light. And so what if you can two man heal a boss fight having the whole group alive at the end is more important then downing a boss and having to worry if that one dps who died might cost you the fight, But for my last note those who don’t just cast HL I give you props for not having a one track mind.
my rotation (start with HS then follow with spam flash and HL “IF” tanks needs)

In my opinion, most of these posts here talking about holy light spamming is the only way to heal are the ones that are the healing meter trolls that want to see themselves at the top of the list over those HoC priests. To be honest yes holy light spamming is key to some boss fights like 25 man Iron Council for the tank with the big guy but for those who are the ones that are close minded, you don’t need to do that for every fight and mob. Who cares who’s on top of the healing meter…the question is, “is everyone living in the raids with your ‘LEET’ heals?” If the question is no, well GG on top meter heals doesn’t prove much. My assumptions as being a holy pally myself is that if people would stop focusing on meters for healing and rather the question of, “is everyone in the raid staying alive?” If more people use that then you would see more people stop focusing on HL and seeing that if used correctly FL works just as well for some usual fights.

To sum this all up:
HL spamming doesn’t help you all the time.

You need to rethink your mentality as a Pally healer if you are one of those meter trolls.(I don’t mind being 2nd or 3rd on the healing meter if everyone is still alive and little to no wipes then I think I did my job as a healer)

FL works just as well as HL if you use it correctly and in the right situations. (I find myself usually spamming FL and throwing in the occaisional HL when the tank is suffering from it.)

And by the way, both of us gem for intellect.

The short answer is no. I full cleared it with only two healers, both holy pallies, and did the heartbreaker achievement also with that set up.

i agree with most,
To keep up mana I rotated HS, HL, HL and repeat the cycle.
I just do this because of ‘Infusion of Light’. the only think i have problems with is that i’m currently lowest on healing done.
When we run ulduar 25 man we mostly have 2 resto druid, 1 holy priest, 1 resto shaman and 1 holy paladin. (this isn’t always the set up).

also a great trinket is Darkmoon Card: Greatness.
when you have a big pool of mana this really rocks. if you use divine plea whenever the trinket procs you will never go below 50% mana, the mana returned by divine plea is really insane. it also increase you SP, and crit

I have stacked Int and SP to the point where I have about 1100 int and close to 2200 sp.

The guild that I am in, use me constantly as a tank healer with a couple of other imba raid healers on 10 and 25 man raids.

My primary spell for healing is Flash of Light with HL thrown in if the tank takes a pretty heavy hit but I can quite happily sit there and spam FoL for the entire fight healing for between 3.5k (bad) to just over 8k (crit) with things averaging out at around 6k. If I need an instant heal, I can throw a Holy Shock at the tank and if it crits for 7.5k, I can the throw an instant FoL heal somewhere in the range above (11k-15.5k instantly).

I dont usually have a problem healing in Ulduar because I have the backup to go with me in the healing stakes.

From what I’ve heard, they don’t stack Choadbringer. In fact, I believe they don’t even stack with Righeous Fury, Blessing of Sanctuary, or Glyph of Divine Plea. However, Sacred Shield and Power Word: Shield do stack with them since they absorb a fixed amount instead of a percentage.

Question. for Divine Sacrifice and Hand of Sacrifice. Do these stack when I cast Bubble, and then both of them. Very applicable to raids and also Arena that I am in a lot now.
