What Class to replace my Boomkin with ?

Resto druids are AMAZING healers- I never have mana issues and if for some reason a fight went that far innervate it away. Running 4 druids and a pally I could even innervate X4 on my healer IF needed but I never have run into a situation like that.

As for ease of use- I use ISBoxer repeater regions + healbot. My DPS druids have their DPS keys tied to my tanking keys. My healers bar is basically empty and I solely use healbot+ISBoxer. With healbot you can put any spell you wish on one bar. It becomes like a whack a mole game really- when a bar goes down on healbot click it lol.

Jim's way i'm sure works just great, not sure how he adjusts for overhealing? I like the control healbot gives me so I don't accidently blow all my mana healing a full health target.

I have extremely mana efficient rotations (like the one listed above) and extremely inneficient rotations, but I actually just don't care about overhealing. Mana is never a problem. I remember a 10 minute faction champions where it was down to me and 4 others, and I kept rejuvenation/growth rolling, and mended the entire time. Druids are ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.

I love single playing my druid and trying to max out what he can do. But when it comes to boxing, I don't even want to bother with it. I want to target mobs and watch them fall over dead while I scroll my mouse. Healing is just something extra to have to worry about. Running a druid healer means you can simply ignore that something extra and pay more attention to runing out of the fire, the tank switch, and why one of your dps is facing the wrong way.

edited to add: Druids are proactive healers, as opposed to reactive healers like shaman. (although they have been given many more reactive tools in the recent expansion) So rolling hots will always have quite a bit of overhealing, even when you are paying 100% attention. I think it's this proactive stance (simply keep this stuff going and you're golden) that makes them such great healers for boxing.
