(holy pally) Healing Tortos with Nerf

[Silverlust]

Hi there,

My healing and heals per sec has dropped significantly on normal 25man Tortos (I use the tier 15 2 and 4 set bonus by the way).
*I stopped using the tier 14 4 set a few weeks ago to get ready for the cooldown nerf.

--I thought we were losing only 2% mastery. However, when I logged on Tuesday it went from 22.4% to 19.01%, thats 3.39% - so I am wondering if it's only scalling up 1.25 rather than 1.5??

--Previously any piece of gear with crit instead of spirit i had it reforged to spirit.... but changed that to mastery to get my mastery up to 20%.
*It turned out that 20% wasn't enough for Tortos. during break I went back and reforged some spirit into mastery (as I am not having mana issues). I got my mastery back up to 22% Didn't really see I huge difference though.

--I am wondering if the buff Resto druids (and other healers got) is causing my healing to look worse?

Yes, there was a scaling nerf on top of the 2%. Count yourself lucky you were already on low mastery. Mastery stacking Paladins have lost almost 10% mastery.

thanks, i stacked a wicked lot of mastery and i am doing 74k heals per sec now on 25 man Tortos

I've gone from 42% to 36%, although it's a nerf I wouldn't say it was as significant a nerf to make us look at other stats more. But I did notice our tortos heroic (10) kill seemed harder to heal this week....not sure whether that's to blame or people not avoiding rockfalls/spinning shells properly :P

So, 2 things.

First, I agree with Hypasonic. I went from 40% to almost 35% and haven't really noticed it.

Second, Silver, without looking at logs, I would assume that your healing group is overhealing a ton. Try 5 healing those fights. It gives you more to heal and you'll see you numbers improve. With this far into the tier and item upgrades now available, I would talk to your raid leader about dropping a healer on those fights.
