I spent a lot of time ...I think I'm similar to you. I spent a lot of time in the first part of this year doing 5- and 10- man achievements just so I could feel like I was accomplishing something as a healer. <br /><br />When you are the only healer or only one of two you know you're doing your part. The measure of your performance is pretty clear.<br /><br />However if I'm going to choose between doing only 10-man or 25-man, right now I have to choose 25. I still hold up 25s as the pinnacle of raiding.Yane (Yet another night elf)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04373678689973023610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34280462.post-38477244921564013802009-05-11T11:33:00.000-07:002009-05-11T11:33:00.000-07:00Well for me I avoid burnout in that I don't do 10 ...Well for me I avoid burnout in that I don't do 10 and 25's on the same character. Or atleast I try not to. Peronsally I can't stand healing in 25 so avoid it as much as possible. Granted since I mainly raid as an elemental shaman with dual spec as resto I still do have to heal 25's occasionally. For the most part though I enjoy healing 10 man's so much more then 25 man. <br /><br />I think that comes from measuring my performance. I can measure how much dps I do in a 25 man but healing? You are just one of 5-8 healers and I don't feel like overhealing to be on the top of the chart is worth it. <br /><br />But in a 10 man as one of 2 or 3 healers every thing you do is important and it feels like more of a team (odly) then it does when there are many more healers. <br /><br />So atleast for my shaman I try to stick to just to 25 man ulduar progression runs... 10 man's I try to run on one of my other 80's. Playing a different role keeps things fresh longer then running the same job on the same instance just with different amounts of people.Saravidnoreply@blogger.com
