What is better: Cloudburst or Healing Stream Totem | Resto Shaman M+ Tips 10.2

[@jaceks88]

About to level a resto from 60-70. Your videos have been. A ton of help.

[@thelegendbehindthecow]

Glad to hear that mate! More to come as mentioned in the video, thanks for the support :)

[@adamadamadam83]

Can't wait for the Weak Auras!

[@thelegendbehindthecow]

WIP but just a few more days and I should be ready with initial version to share :) I shall need your feedback after that to improve it!

[@Zhantzher]

If I wanted to play a setup healer, I'd play disc or druid. HST all the way.

[@thelegendbehindthecow]

Fair enough!

[@zweigei.1327]

this!

[@bertsvello]

Playing HST is really easier, but the CBT burst at the end of pulls to get everyone up is way better!

[@thelegendbehindthecow]

Especially this week with bursting =)

[@Ougagagoubou]

I've used CBT forever, meaning at least 200+ rsham m+ dungs over few years, but reason is mostly that I've felt it's the only acceptable option. I'm not the best at using it, often I think now I should burst it and it still heals pretty meh amount, not the "top everyone" like I'd hope it to be. Now that it's not the only option, I probably should try out HST. I'll prob see if *anyone* doing higher keys than me (+25) is using it, I'll make the change. In future if you want to make comparisons with healing done, I'd suggest doing it in dungeon without these random buffs. Many dungs now have them, BRH last boss improves yourself, FALL boosts Chromie, EB you end up healing a lot of extra on last boss, the friendly adds. There are others too, almost difficult to find dung where you'd get fair comparison. Checked now and most top rshams are using CBT but there was one who had done 29s that were going with HST. So I trust it'll be viable in my hands too.

[@thelegendbehindthecow]

Yeah, I hate how this season the dungeon ends and Details basically tells you nothing because there's something like Chromie that just offsets the numbers so much..... At the end of the day - give it a shot and see how it feels for just a couple of keys and then see if you want to stick with it. If it works better than CBT then by all means go for it :)

[@davidgreenberg8456]

Wouldn't it make sense to compare the healing done with the same dungeons and key levels? Comparing a 20 tyr to a 23 wm or 22 and 23s of different dungeons does not make much sense to me.

[@thelegendbehindthecow]

Would if I could but even if I ran the same dungeon - since I'm pugging - it wouldn't show the same numbers back to back whatsoever as the comp is different, aug evoker, ppl's mistakes, etc. In a perfect world, yes, it would be nice to compare numbers like that but even with the ones presented, I think the trend is clear :)

[@bobbilling1075]

Not too scientific with the testing here. You’re comparing apples to oranges doing this in Fall. Good info but experimental setup should have been thought out

[@thelegendbehindthecow]

Fair. Those were the closest keystone levels in the same dungeons that I could get and yes, GF is probably not the best place to do comparisons but at the end of the day, the trend is clear. HST would do more healing overall but CBT give you more control. The gap probably grows smaller too in higher keys but I didn't run HST in +25s - I'd like to have the CBT there :) If you have better suggestion for experimental setup, I'm all ears!
