At the moment, the options seem to be:
1. Go with current 5 heals (could be problematic with no resto shaman)
2. Swap the enhance to resto and switch a healer to dps (which would be much lower as their os is not as good)
3. Go with 6 heals (could be problematic with less overall dps)
Each one has its own downside. I'm not sure what to do.
