So, I really loved disc healing. I picked it up in Wrath (I hated holy so much), and my love for bubbling and PoHing and things increased through Cata. With one hitch ( Read more... )

I'm finding that they way I play varies depending on the fight. There are some fights where I get evangelism stacked up at the beginning of the fight and then use holy fire (glyphed) on CD just to keep the stacks and then right before a big damage burst I archangel + inner focus + spirit shell then bubble the tanks and POH the raid. If you are spec'd for power infusion and its off CD you can add that in there and OMG SO MUCH WIN!! Then get evangelism stacked back up again and maintain for the next burst. This is provided that the fight mechanics allow you to stay still long enough to do all that. There are other bosses like Gara'ja and the Spirit Kings where through most of the fight I do nothing but smite heal. Some fights like the stoned guard I prefer to go holy. I think as a disc priest we have the ability to be flexible on how we heal and that's a pretty cool thing.

So while not utilizing atonement you aren't technically doing anything wrong, you are not taking advantage of a all the tools available to you and in turn not healing to the best of your class's ability. I would suggest trying the method I mentioned at the beginning of my post of stacking evangelism at the start of a fight and then keeping it up with Holy Fire (glyphed for instant cast) then popping archangel + spirit shell and PoH the raid or party. Once you get into this rhythm and you learn the timing of the fights you will learn if you have the time to hit archangel between damage bursts and still have it up again to shield the raid from big damage.
