You just have to respec once you hit 80, and it's not like you need more healing power from the druid pre 80 - they're perfectly fine even w/out nourish. Regrowth is still good, and ns plus ht is a great OS button, that you rob yourself of by going with the ht spec. I just don't see any good coming from this spec at any level.

Ok here is some info on wrath and healing as a druid.

Wrath launch, wg had no cd. So raiding you just spammed wg over and over and over and over agin. About a month and a half they then put a cd on wg.

At this point, you had the regrowth spec and the glyphed ht spec. Of the two specs, the glyphed ht spec was supiror due to the simple fact it allowed you to get into 4sR. Because of the time it took to cast, it hit for the same amount as regrowth and at times more.

Then came 3.1 with Ulduar. This is where they made Noruish more buffed then Arnold Scharzinager in the 70's and 80's and it tossed the glyphed ht spec out the window.

So with the op asking about something for leveling (beings not 80 yet and no nourish in his bag of tricks) I feel that this would fall right in what he was asking about.

I have raided the majority of my wow carrer as a healer, and all of wrath as a resto druid to the point that I stoped pushing progression mid ulduar.
