This is a spec which I have constructed based on the changes that Holy priests in paticular will forgo with the next patch.

close, but no cigar

Going thru your holy tree, I see some issues.
Healing Focus is a pvp talent. Period. Choosing to spend two points to reduce pushback when attacked in a healing build = fail. Tank aggro was totally redone in 3.0 and you should never have anything in your face. On the rare chance that you have something hitting you, FADE. Not a talent to blow two points on, especially when you dont have three points in renew! Healer deaths are not generally due to direct damage in wotlk but rather from curses,dots,poison,standing in fire, or other aoe type damage.
Renew - why bother with 1/3 - Imp Renew isnt a 'filler'. Put three points in it. As Holy you should always have renews up.
example:

Renew with Improved Renew
1110 * 1.15 = 1276.5 (166 point increase)
Renew with Spiritual Healing
1110 * 1.1 = 1221 (111 point increase)
Renew with Spiritual Healing and Improved Renew
(1110 * 1.1)*1.15 =1404.15 (294 point increase)
With both, it's a 294 point increase, sure, not much...
At 1500 +healing
Renew with Improved Renew
2610 * 1.15 = 3001.5 (391 point increase)
Renew with Spiritual Healing
2610 * 1.1 = 2871 (261 point increase)
Renew with Spiritual Healing and Improved Renew
(2610 * 1.1) * 1.15 = 3301.65 (691 point increase)
3301 health at the cost of 450, thats 7.3 ( 8.1 with 5/5 mental agility) health per mana, what other single target spell is going to give you that? Even with 3/3 Improved healing and 5/5 Empowered healing, greater heal is only going to give you 6.8 and that's only if it hits for the max amount.
([2784+(1500*3/3.5)+(1500*.2)]*1.1)/(825*.85)=6.8

I took it for when I'm
Adwarflol — Fri, 12/19/2008 - 23:10I took it for when I'm healing and adds are attacking me, like those tiny spider things in naxx. As for the renew math, I'm far to high to look at that now. But I'll definately consider redistrubuting the points if it seems worthwhile ;D.
