Destroy healers pros and cons

[Aebel]

Hey guys I’m looking at making a destro healer and I was just wondering if people could give me a quick pros and cons list for each of them.

[Eathisword]

Dok is best for group heals, group cleanse and has big armor.

Zealot is best for single target heal, best CC.

Shaman looks cool.

[TenTonHammer]

Zealot is the best pure healer on destro

DoK has the best AoE heals and cleanse

Sham has the best mobility, instant Rez capabilities and if order is to be believed an unstoppable, oppressive nightmare that can solo entire warbands

[Grock]

Shaman also best for running away

[Reesh]

Step 1. don't touch Shaman with a stick.

If you stick to first step, you will do fine.

Dok and zeal are both fine, dok has highest aoe burst heals, epic M2 and great aoe sustain combined with okish ST. Zele has solid aoe heals and top ST burst heals.

Shaman has no aoe hots (gcd effective background heals) and also has weak burst heals (slow stationary casts and hots).

Morale pump and insta ress is ok in wb but you heal drop to fluff level

[Sulorie]

Flash heal value is too low per cast to be called "burst heal". Cast time spells are the same for sham and zeal albeit zeal can increase heal on target of all healers by 25%, while shaman can heal 40% stronger on low hp targets, which stacks with zeal buff. The highest heal per cast have shamans, hands down but they have to pay more attention to positioning and start casting before the dmg hits, as they have cast time spells.

Have you ever played zele or runie or are you guessing?
