*NOTE - The Borrow time buff will only be consumed with a spell that has a cast time of over 0.1 seconds. anything with a base cast time (instant) such a penance, will not consume the buff. This is not a bug*
the BT buff is an interesting one.
Usually i save PW:S for when tank takes a big hit. meaning my penance AND Greater heal/Flash heal afterward is hasted topping the tank off. however it doesn't mean you have to use the hasted buff on that target. many many times before in heroics etc i've had a dps take a big hit. i shield the tank, penance the dps up to top and use the flash heal/ whatever on the tank again and continue. it just depends on your play style how you use it. just because it doesn't agree with your play style, doesn't mean it needs changing.

You should be keeping PW:S up on the tank at all times if you're Disc; otherwise you're losing too many benefits of the spec. If you don't like shielding so much, go Holy.
I SHOULD be keeping tank alive. and it doesn't matter if i use PW:S constantly or not. its my play style and its how i play and it works well. you should stop moaning just because one buff is going wasted because your using PW:S constantly when its not needed. Its mana wasted popping a shield which doesn't get absorbed, regardless of the crit that's added after. I don't need 4% more crit when im running 30% raid buffed. The borrowed time buff is there so that when you see a tank or any party member in a heroic hit 20% health you have the tools required to recover from it faster than any other class.
Just because it doesn't suit your play style, doesn't mean it should be changed.

Thats fine as long as you give the WS debuff some time to go down. im running heroics with some in experienced tanks and id rather save that shield and buff for when he gets /facepalmed. your buff is going to wear off if you use it like that. but thats something Blizz wont change because again its your play style.
and since when did Weak soul give a +4% to healing? +4 percent crit isnt much when im running over 25% crit anyway. however it times when he just got pummeled down to 10% a shield mitigation some of the next hit plus 25% haste to my penance spell (which is down to nearly the cast time of a flash heal now) it more than enough to recover. then, and only then can i see where +4% crit is nice to have. otherwise, i crit enough already.
but again, play style
