Quote:The only time salv is neccessary is on aoe fights where the tanks are lazy or undergeared, specifically. You can seriously just leave it on and it shouldn't cause an issue in all but the most sensitive aggro fights that also include adds that can one shot a plate healer. (Zero, in case you're wondering)
Threat is as much of an issue at the moment as regen is for healers.

Oh... I figured RF would make it fairly difficult for a tank.
I thought about the Salv bonus mainly for Hodir. After looking at the parse from the hodir fight, it blew my mind to see that Mel spiked to 20+k dps. I would have figured that would put his threat pretty high.
All in all, I don't know if 10 man holy can pull it off, especially as an off spec, but after reading and researching the build, there is just some really nice things that it adds. I'm not going to respec it before tonight, but if we do a Naxx this weekend that I'm able to get into, I'm going to spec it to try it out in there, or maybe if I heal an ULd run or something. I'm finding more and more things I like in holy the more I research it. Not enough to make me run for the hills to be a full time healer, but the more I research, the more I REALLY like the place that Holy Paladins are in right now. I just need to get more comfortable with the spec.
