The Daily Quest: Raiding and healing

WoW Insider's on a Daily Quest to bring you interesting, informative and entertaining WoW-related links from around the blogosphere.
Healing has never been incredibly easy -- it's not the process, it's the fact that the lives of everyone in your group or raid rest on your shoulders and the shoulders of everyone else on the healing team. Raiding is an exercise in working with other people, and sometimes that's not quite as easy as you'd think, either. Today we've got a few posts from around the blogosphere with some helpful tips for both raiding and healing.
Is there a story out there we ought to link or a blog we should be following? Just leave us a comment, and you may see it here tomorrow! Be sure to check out our WoW Resources Guide for more WoW-related sites.

Been busy updating my blog with quite a few raiding-centric posts. Some are Rogue-specific; some are about the raid scene in general!
https://prayerofknives.wordpress.com/2011/03/31/l2stab-rogue-vs-magmaw-normal/ - Rogue vs. Magmaw (Normal). A Rogue-oriented strategy guide to Magmaw to eek the most DPS out of his squishy phases.
https://prayerofknives.wordpress.com/2011/04/17/when-rotation-doesnt-matter-part-1/ - Part 1 of my discussion of Blizzard's shifting philosophy from "l2rotation" to "l2play".
https://prayerofknives.wordpress.com/2011/04/06/doing-it-from-behind/ - Not raiding-related, but my ideas on how to fix PvP lag issues for melee. Because it's super-annoying.

Same here!
Thanks for compiling this every day, there's usually at least one interesting link I wouldn't have seen otherwise.

Oh, and don't miss this one too! full comparison of the current state of healing masteries and raiding (for all healing classes). I learned a lot from the guests!

Healing... glad I don't do it as a main job anymore. Even though I'm leveling up a priest... blarg.
Newest post is up on Corath's Blog (http://corath.wordpress.com): all about video game music, after a great visit to Video Games Live.
