Thanks to this guide I picked up the Mendwatch mod, very nice, thanks.
One quick note about this skill's usefulness in 5-mans. In Shadow Labs, at least the way we run it, we have a tank and then an off-tank.
Prayer of Mending ricochets back and forth between the two tanks so fast that I am using all 5 charges up in a very short amount of time. This has allowed me to cast it along with a renew and sit back and enjoy. Refreshing PoM and Renew as needed.
The tanks are healed to max all the time and I leave fights with 85% or higher mana bar. I also don't have to worry as much about aggro since if a tank gets stunned or something occurs to cause them to have an aggro wipe, the mobs will usually head for the DPS rather than me now since I am generating so little threat.
And, as every good priest knows, there is nothing sweeter than watching a rogue die crying for heals:)
(Just kidding, I love rogues who pull aggro from the MT then cry about heals, really, I do!)
Anyway, if you still are on the fence about this spell, just get it along with Mendwatch, once you learn how to use it to full effect you will wonder why Blizzard never gave us this spell earlier.
Side note:
Didn't want to start a new thread for this, but is Circle of Healing worth not having Divine Spirit? Anyone tried this talent? It seems like it could be useful in raids....if a whole group doesn't have their own healer which seems rather unlikely.
