RaidingBuild Explanation:
For those who raids you do understand that you mostly use chain heals, and most shamans seem to run out of mana faster than other healers like priest or druids and even pallies. So here is a build for you to maintain the same heals in raids but increase your mana regen by far. All thought this has not been tested for single healing parties such as heroics or regular instances.
Pros:
You will be healing the same as before. Nothing Will change in your healing numbers. You will last longer in boss raids and will maintain a high mana regen prof. Thus you can cast more heals for the raids.
Cons:
You will be losing riptide and earth shield. But I hardly use them anyways since you always have more than 1 healer in a raid.




Having plenty of mana regen is nice but a resto shaman not being all the way down in the talent tree is not a true resto build. Heals will be lacking, Earth Shield provides a buffer for heals on the tanks for big hits and Riptide is an easy and instant solo heal for a single target mob, plus the benefit for the chain heal target. Missing Cleanse Spirit is a poor choice as well.
