Heroic Chimaeron healer tips?

[madmessias]

Hello, we are doing chimaeron heroic and i just wanted too ask some things.
Can we just keep the double strike tank above 10k, then use a glyphed prayer of mending on him, then he will be dipped too 1health, then healed for like 11k. Is this possible or is it delay on the heal?
Also, guardian spirit in phase two, will it heal the person im using it 40%, or how does it work in that phase since everyone is immune too healing?
We are using a priest, shaman, paladin healing combo, do you think i could go disc? What im thinking is the feud phases would be much harder.

sometimes the immunity to death aura is a little slow to apply so I wouldn't gamble on the PoM strategy working every time.
In p2, healing is reduced by 99%, you're not immune to healing so in effect GS will make you survive one hit that would otherwise kill you but it won't heal you for an amount worth mentioning.
As for disc vs holy it depends on what you're using other than that. Having a CD for every feud is awesome. So if you for instance have a prot paladin and you can rotate DG and PW:B on each feud that would be awesome. Also, shields work great in p2 so if you didn't get everyone topped beforehand you can make sure everyone survives long enough that the reason they die is because chimaeron whacked them on the head, not because of the dot.

If you have to heal every other feud without a CD anyway you're probably just better off staying holy imo.

DA tank must be kept at full hp, or the second hit kills him.
GS in p2 will probably save a tank from 1 hit, but I'm not sure. Stuff like last stand and ardent defender work as they are not heals, but I'm not sure about GS.
Disc is pretty much win here, you can pop a PWB in 1st and 3rd Feud. Also it's probably the best tank healer here with added utility (PWS+POM on DA tank, PS on 4break DA, PWB on Feud, PWS spam on p2).

He was referring to Prayer of Mending, which actually ticks in between the double strikes. If its glyphed it'll be above 10k every time too -- saving the tank

One other thing, right now we are 5people that are getting healed by healing rain, (4ppl on the edges, one in middle) and the caustic doesn't chain, is that enough too heal everyone up after caustic slime above 10k before the next one hits?

What I mostly do is: Healing rain followed by a chain heal to make sure everyone is above 10k before the next hit, I've tried healing rain without any other spells and sometimes when RNG strikes one of the people I needed to heal died because he wasn't above 10k yet

So the shaman can solo the raid outside feud phase by chain healing people getting hit by slime, and keeping up healing rain? Or are they too far spread out too heal the guy getting hit on the "west" side and chain it too people getting hit on the "east" side?

X - A
V

Will it heal people that are X and A if they get hit? Since they are furthest apart

Healing rain should be able to reach them if they are spread like it should be (6 yards? can't remember). You could do riptide + HW aswell but it should be fine the way you're doing it now i'd say, atleast that's how I've been doing it for the past ~6 weeks since we had chimaeron hc on farm.
And I asume you're using healing stream totem? As it helps ALOT
