Restoration Druid v Shadow Priests

[Concillian]

Currently at level 38 my heals are

Healing Touch: 378 mana, heals 983 to 1176 (can crit)
Rejuvenate: 160 mana, heals 320 over 12 seconds (can't crit)
Regrowth: 420 mana, heals 434 to 489 plus 448 over 8 seconds (initial part can crit at a +40% bonus chance)

I have 1999 mana and 131 spirit

I'm wondering how that compares with level 40-45 priests

My priest is clvl 39 and healing specced that gives +10% to all heals healing, +15% to renew, and -6% mana to instant spells (renew). A shadow priest will probably primarily use Flash Heal.

Renew: 193m for 500 over 15 seconds
Flash Heal: 215m for 442-529
Heal 3: 375m for 851-964
Heal 4: 425m for 1067-1204

mana is 2827 with +31 to healing or 2962 without the +healing
SPI 150 (~50 mana per tick)

new rank of Flash heal is at 40, which ups efficiency by ~0.10 mana per health.

A full Holy spec will have a more efficient Heal skill, but most don't head that direction because of the untility of Flash heal, and it's not all that less efficient than the insanely long cast time Heal/Greater Heal.

I would say if you're a competant healer, and have 131 spirit, Innervate will be best on you. If your priest looks to be heling very competantly, it's probably best on him. The cases where innervate is necessary for survival should be few. Even fewer where it will make a difference whether it's cast on you or the priest.
