I find most 5 mans to be harder to heal then LFR 25s with 6 healers.

The best place to start is random BGs in my mind. You'll die a lot, and lose people a lot. But there is no real penalty for failure and you get a lot of practice watching large raid frames and paying attention to your surroundings.

That's because LFR is balanced around the idea that of the 6 healers, if only 3 know what they're doing the group can still succeed. The dps requirements are similar.

I've been in LFR groups where 2 of the 6 healers has done less healing than a healing stream totem, and of that most was on themselves. I've also been in some LFR groups where a tank is 5th on dmg done on Ultraxion (meaning only 4 dps actually know what they're doing, the rest are relatively clueless), and the boss still dies.
