WoL for all Thok pulls: worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-ubqzk2kngj5v2vyv/sum/healingDone/?enc=bosses&boss=71529
Before the raid, I checked out what most paladins on WoL are using for this fight, and most are using EF, so, the very first attempt, I was Eternal Flame & Holy Avenger build, however it wasn't great for me, all pulls after that was SH & Divine Purpose, including the kill.
I understand Shamans are pretty amazing this patch and it's tough competition, however, I feel my heals are very low compared to his, as well as the disc priest's.
What I lack in heals, I try to make up in utility, such as BoP my shaman and priest, followed by aura mastery, so we can stay in P1 as long as possible.
Is it normal that I'm getting crushed this badly on Thok? HS, Judgment, CS, LoD, HR is the general spam rotation, of course HR reduced as Screenches increased.
Additionally, I want input on how to build my paladin to coexist with the other 2 healers, Shaman & Disc. On fights where we can 2-heal, the shaman goes Enhance, therefore it leaves myself and the disc 2-healing. While I can easily attain the 2nd haste breakpoint for EF, I've read that EF build doesn't play well with disc and it can cause a lot of overhealing, therefore I am current SH (which is awesome, reforging out of spirit feels fantastic).
Should I switch to EF? Since going SH, anything else makes me feel like I'm Holy Power starved. It's addictive how SH plays, but I wouldn't mind going back to EF & HA if it's a better compliment to a disc priest. (I really want him to go Holy, but he doesn't want to, and I'm not going to force him, we're not that hardcore).
Thanks fellas.
