Get blue gobbo jewelry which drops in BB/BE, it adds toughness + wounds. Considering as healer you will be focused then focused again, defense > extra will.

Just what i'd do.

Get armor as high as possible (BL Cloak)
Get chance to be crit to 0% with over 250 ini
Get heal crit over 15% (personal preference)
After that.... I don't think anything you will do will make a massssive difference so have fun :D

I'd agree with this path as well.

The 3-piece BL set bonus (preferably) with trinket+jewelry+cloak gives you a valuable amount of extra armor. As a shaman you want to spec heavy tank mode. The only thing you lose is the heal crit and armor pen/reduce crit of the 5 piece gen which you can mitigate with RR and boosting ini.

mmmmm unless im mistaken, your loosing either:
- 3% heal crit chance, 3% reduced armor penetration, 24 willpower and 2% disrupt + 2% dodge + 4AP per second or
- a total of 48 willpower and 3% heal crit chance, 3% reduced armor penetration for 240 more armour + stats obtaining pointless stats like 4x intelligence.

I mean, if you must go beastlord, you might want to consider pushing up to 4 pieces for the + 58 willpower?

You will have nice armour defence on medium lvl sets like vanq + invader and +armour talis seem to be in fashion now. Ive found my minimum of 800 to 850 willpower to be cruicial to bring out serious heals. Yes you can heal at just over 500 willpower but you had better have a good main healer with you or you may be alive at the end of the fight but the rest of your team wont :mrgreen:

Ive got really cheap random talis atm (poor gobbo) and am holding my own quite well vs melee at 7.5k hp, 1500 armour, 280 initiative + lvl 3 furtile strike (0%crit) and 840 willpower with 29% heal crit chance.

In the end, I would recommend trying both options and seeing what works best for you, there is no THIS IS THE ONLY SETUPT OPTION from what I have gathered :D

It's not about you to just keep them alive, it's their defensive play and group play, what makes them survive, despite rather low willpower.
