@mir sorry, not trying to give the impression that I'm missing the point. I understand what you're saying, but we're at a point where we don't know how it is going to scale past tier 11 right now. Back in vanilla wow, the stat differences between gear sets wasn't terribly great. Really in BC and Wrath was where you started seeing these HUGE leaps between set stats. We will have to see how they handle the stat jumps throughout the course of the expansion. Not to mention any set bonuses that may increase the efficiency of any of our spells. It is certainly a possibility that GHW will eclipse HW as the staple heal, I'm not saying it wont, this is just the first step.

The math shown, shows that even with higher spellpower though, HW will still be more efficient for now. In the example given At 10k spellpower, HW would be about 3.5 hpm. GHW at 10k spellpower would be 2.75. While the gap lessons, GHW still pulls ahead for the time being. But of course as we stack more spellpower, th ...
