How is your healing setup?

I used to run into so many issues doing heroics, that im now farming, some still with deaths to lower end gear, but im still able to do many. I had a huge issue with trying to rush dps out instead of taking it slow and easy, to a degree, to make sure my guys were healed up before certain thigns happened.

My gear on my guys isnt all that, there +dmg is around 1200, buffed up to 1500, crits usually unbuffed around 20s and mid teens. My gear is way under some of the others. My Paladin tank is semi decently geared, i had good luck with epic drops, and friends helping me with titansteel crafted stuff.

For instance, On Moorabi

For the first part of the fight, im primarily dps/trinketing, and shocking his transformation until at least 60 to 75%. After that i top my guys up, having them all heal themelves, and then poping heroism/lust. From that point forward i just DPS as much as i can, by that time hes usually 25-30% by the time he does his first quake. My guys drop to 30% life, but with 3 healing totems there usuallyup to 50% before hes either dead or does his next quake then after that he usually dead. Also beware of the Gore Debuff on your tank, you can easily bleed to death near the end of the fight becuase its stacked.
My shammies are pretty much on par with yours. Around 1200 Self Buffed and 1500 with Totem of Wrath. I pretty much just DPS the crap out of him from the start while keeping the tank topped up with my resto shammy. He's cake in troll form but I always seem to miss a transformation due to Earth Shock on CD or I don't have my Hammer left from an interrupt already. After a quake I know he does no damage to the others so I spam heal my tank with all 4 in order to keep him up and then chain heal the rest and let the Healing totems do the work.

I even got my Titansteel Guardians on them the other day (Still need to enchant them with +50 Spellpower) but it doesn't seem to have changed my DPS at all, even though it went up 200 points. I know its being slightly nerfed but still, its pretty much these crappy boss abilties that 1 shot my team that is frustrating me.

I farm like 1500g a day through the dailies but after that I get burned out after wiping on instances 20-30 tries. The only boss I've managed to best twice is Prince in Utgarde Keep. I think I got lucky both times. I know of things to upgrade too and I am working on the few last crafted items I can get but that still is only like another 200 Spellpower and then I still don't think it'll be enough.

Also for the suggestion about using Divine Shield. That idea caused me everytime to lose instant aggro and the bosses/mobs went for my shammies and well you know the rest.
