I would agree. Right now it's not simply about healing power; it's also our lack of cooldowns and utility.

Right now the only unique buff a shaman brings to a raid is manatide, and it's by no means the only mana regen ability out there. In the past a little discrepancy in our healing could be mitigated in a raid environment by the buffs we presented in Bloodlust and totems.

The issue I perceive with shamans in current content is that we are an outdated class. The main feature of our class, bloodlust and totems, have been taken from us as unique buffs and we have received nothing comparable in return. We are a utility class without the utility. Until this is addressed, I believe shaman will continue to have issue while we progress further into Wrath content.
