Healing

[dralanne7]

Well i was wondering how you guys manage healing with specific characters?
I recently tryed pve, just rdf hc tho, but when i started thinking about 10man raiding, when there is more than 1healer, how to efficiantly manage healing while you continue to dps the enemy target?

If you use isboxer this video explains multiple ways to set up healing, videoFX is probably the most effective way that I've found. When using 2 healers you would just make 2 sources and view them on your main screen.

whatched it already, and setted things like that alrdy( with VideoFX) but it didnt really seemed efficient considering if u have for example 5 healers and for example you want them all healing same target at same time, cus basicly with that mehod, if u have more than 1 healer, u can heal 1 target at the time, what i mean is that i have to click 5 times to heal with all 5. my question was is there a way to heal with all healers same target with 1 click? becouse basicly using VideoFX like MiRai shows in the vid with 5 healers i would probably be spending more time focusing on healing while i should focus on dps/threat holding.

Ya I see your point, maybe try mapped key wizard and set the same hot key on your healers to heal your tank

I use ISboxer repeater regions together with the grid and clique addon for the healing.
When u dont use the healer as main but u dont like to use video fx then u can also use the grid addon on all characters and then put a repeater region over ur grid frames. Fastest solution is to set the grid frames on one account up and then Copy the WTF - saved variable -grid- folder to ur slave accounts so u have the exact same addon settings on all accounts.

Personally i dont like to execute healing spells by clicking because it requires a lot of attention.
Instead i have my healing rotation integrated in my dmg mapped key so i actually spam one button to deal dmg with the dps and heal with the healer at the same time. To choose the healing target i click on the character frames on grid.

To avoid that the healer constantly heals, even when no healing is required, i found a little trick to turn the healing on and off:
Make a macro to heal ur focus target. For exp: /cast [@focus] lesser healing wave
Make the following macros with the clique addon:
left click:
/focus [target=mouseover]
/script SetRaidTarget("mouseover", 2)

right click:
/clearfocus
/script SetRaidTarget("mouseover", 0)

Now when u left click on a character health frame it makes the character the focus target and marks him with a raid symbol. Now u can heal that target by using ur focus heal macro which should by integrated in ur dps mapped key.
When u right click on the health frame it clears the focus target and removes the raid symbol and healing is turned off.
