Yea taladan the problem as you say is prot being able to outheal holy with pvp healing gear, its redicously stupid. For example i can do 34k! crit holy lights when using wings, trinkets and healing a druid i think it was (extra amount healed). This was a while ago and i could definatly get for more with the gear i have now but still the highest i could get with holy was around 18-19k crits.....

As much as i like the ability to heal AND survive as prot holy needs a buff,,,, simple as that most of the tree is absolute junk and we only take a few them because we need to unlock further down the trees to get our usefull talents like : Lights grace, Holy guidance, Judgement of the pure, holy shock and beacon. The rest of the tree is just pure crap + the amount of points we have to sink just to get those abilities is insane usually /3 or /5 before they are worthwhile -_-

The only advantage Holy has over prot is an instant heal and allowing judgements to increase haste. (beacons nice but we can do our job without it ie you dont rely on it to keep someone alive + it should last longer than 1 min.....)
