Garreth and Mori's Healing Seminar: Going Beyond "Just Get Grid"
We've got a lot of new healers that need a LOT of work. We also have some old veterans that could use some new insight into how play their class as efficiently as possible. I'm setting up this one hour group session for all of us to get on vent and go somewhere to work on honing our skills. We'll be going over things like:
- Configuration of Grid and Grid-addons
- Discussion of Grid indicators
- Using indicators as a realtime guide on where to put heals
- Dos and Don'ts
- Macros: mouse-over cleanse, auto-trinket-pop, self-casts
- The focus frame
- How To Use Other People's HoTs/Shields To Make YOU Better
- Splitting up the raid into healing zones
- Gear choices: Longterm or Power-healing?
- Decisions: How To Decide Who To Heal?
- Why We Don't Always Care About "Healing Meters"
This will be a quick, fun way to get a lot of healing mains some information they might not have been exposed to yet. All healing alts and dps hybrids are welcome and highly encouraged to join. I have this scheduled tentatively for Monday evening at 9pm. The time may change, so keep a heads up. Please SIGN UP so we have some numbers on who's coming. This is me hoping that Yoggy is dead by then. If he's not, we'll push this until after raid.
Also, if you're an applicant to Downfall, I expect you to be here. Yeah, even the dps classes. Every raiding dps class needs a knowledge of healer techniques so that they can better work within the raid.
Everyone should come with the following installed and updated:
- Grid
- GridStatusRaidDebuff
- GridStatusHoTs
- Quartz
- Ora2
All attendees should understand how to write and use macros as well. See you all there.
