Sam, I used to agree with you, except that now, with the healing per second of healing surge, Chain heal is only used about half the time, and thats usually just when I'm getting equal pressure on all 4 toons. Healing surge is faster, and does a like 7k+ per (11k crits), with atleast 3 casting it, and a 33%crit chance, its a 1.5 sec 25k nuke heal on the focused target.
