Callandra: Overtaking the tank's threat by a little is often WORSE than overtaking it by a lot. Either way the mob starts taking off, and either way the tank needs to taunt it off you. If she taunts off you for a little heal, more heals will come and the taunt is on cooldown. If she taunts off you after a *big* heal, that's tons of free threat for the tank.
Again, the only cut and dry issue is that it's necessary to *wait* before beginning healing, at least with a larger pull, and that if you can get away with a smaller heal as your initial heal that's a good idea. But often when running without any kind of CC, your first heal is optimally going to be something like a greater heal, because that means it can land *that much later* in the fight.
