I've found myself casting less and less chain heal and keep both riptide charges on cd. It's a good medium, but if you want to maximize, I'd say spec into single target healing for Neth, Ilginoth and Elerethe and spec into AoE Healing for Ursoc, Dragons, Cenarius and Xavius. Don't be surprised if you get beat by other healers on the earlier bosses but beat them on the later bosses where our toolkit makes more sense.
