It's not a waste if you want to try the "non-gimmicky" way of doing heroics -- that is, the "holy trinity" tank, healer, dps style instance-running that most "normal" non-boxer groups do.

As for spec, most of the resto talents are really hard to beat. I usually go 0/0/61 (no joke). [url='http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=hZZEfxtAestId']This spec[/url] is solid for PvE. Putting 2 points from Imp reincarnation to fill out Nature's Guardian is your choice -- but NG is more of a PvP talent and imp reincarnation is never taken for the cooldown reduction -- the mana you have when you "pop back up" can make or break a near-wipe.

Your healing is a little low, but what you want to do is find the rank of chain heal that you can spam indefinitely with mana pots and mana tide. Once you reach chain heal rank4, stop downranking -- anything lower than rank4 suffers greatly when it comes to the healing coefficient. Keep ES up at all times and use rank1 healing wave to keep Healing Way up on your tank.
