    [Resto] Need help improving my healing

    Here are some logs from last nights reset-raid. Still trying to learn the ropes of the fights, but I feel there is so much to improve on, and I dont know where or how to start. Im usually comparing myself to the other resto druid, and she always seem to pull ahead slightly, even though my ilvl is higher.

    I am looking at Heroic Gorefiend: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports...mary&source=11

    • All your uptimes are pretty bad, especially Lifebloom. Having only 7% uptime on Lifebloom is awful, you should have 90%+ uptime on it at all times. You cast it once on each tank and never refreshed, instead you just let it fall off. (https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports...&ability=33763)
    • Your Harmony uptime is at 84%, which should be higher (95-100%) (https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports...ability=100977).
      • If you cast Swiftmend on cooldown, you will have 100% uptime on Harmony, alternatively, if you maintain good Lifebloom uptime, the free procs of Regrowth usually maintain it mostly as well.
    • Your Wild Mushroom uptime is pretty alright, however, the time you need it most, Feast of Souls, you let it fall off. Make sure it to keep it down basically always, but especially during times like Feast of Souls. In my following link you can see your mushroom was doing 27k HPS by itself during the first Feast of Souls, that is a TON of healing. (https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports...=81269&phase=2).
    • You are having insane mana issues, having to drink a channeled mana potion less than halfway through the fight, and going oom before the second Feast even begins, the most healing intensive phase! (https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports...e=11&spell=100)
      • This can be fixed by improving the uptime on your Lifebloom! You cast 30 Regrowths, having to pay mana for all of them. If you had better Lifebloom uptime, you would have gotten 15+ free Regrowth casts. That's 90k mana! That is more than half a mana bar!

    I would recommend making something to track all three of these spells, and make it very obvious when one of them isn't active. Here is a gif of a good WeakAura: https://i.imgur.com/87UG8SI.jpg and here is the string to import it: http://pastebin.com/GK5agd6F
    Otherwise, it looks like you are mostly doing everything pretty well. You have a few extra Rejuvenation and Wild Growth casts, but neither of them are overhealing more than average, so it doesn't appear you are using them too liberally. I would also recommend moving away from Incarnation, and instead switching to Soul of the Forest. In general, it will produce more throughput if used correctly.

    EDIT: One last thing, save your Heart of the Wild for the second Feast of Souls, since you are lusting there. The first and second Feast both do the same amount of damage, so might as well get the added benefit of Bloodlust.
