What Wrath players need to know to not suck at Cata!

[Hijiri]

Am new to Healing for Cata Heroics.
Just got to the ilevel 329 and it can be very difficult. So have been slowly working on getting to 346.
Mostly since justice points are easy to get now.
Received a bunch of negativity (people telling me to jump off cliffs for example).
Just learned about "Set focus" a couple weeks ago, so am always using it on tank.
Tried out Deadly Boss, and it does give hints on what to do and the CD of abilities.

Would the 352 blue pvp gear be viable? With it's ability and int boosting.
The Set Bonuses seem nicer then some of the 346 gear from Justice points, Cata rep and Heroic drops.
Though the 352 gear isn't on the pre-raid gear list caused some concern.

Any more Healing hints?
Hoping to get more confidence in normal before going back to Heroics.

90% of these problems could be solved with one technique: uninstall your dps meter. If everyone weren't competing for dps, the only remaining measure of success would be... success. DPS would be more willing to CC, interrupt, stun, battle rez, innervate, dispel, not pull aggro, etc. It's amazing how much better the team does when they're working together rather than against each other.

its so true .. made me play at lot better when i made recount vanish in combat and then show again when the fight was done. cause its good to see how good u are doing dps-wise, but not during combat

I've noticed that your dps improves when you don't have it running or hidden in combat as well. You are more focused on your rotation and what is going on around you than you are on that stupid meter. Besides who cares if you know that you're pulling the top or not. I'm sure the RL is running meters or wowmeters of some sort so they can bleed out those who are not doing their part.

for me dmg meter only helps me to increase my dps even more cuz i know how well i am doing every second of the fight and i can see how small changes to my gameplay effects my dps while i am doing it
