Thats my character as of now 12/30/07. Nevermind the cookie cutter elemental spec my usual setup is as follows
http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=hZxZEf0tAekted
really my problem is I have sat back and played the role of 3rd healer in kara groups with chain heal aoe repair for so long that when it comes to 5 man heroics I just cant seem to single target heal very efficiently. I'm in a slump for what to do about this. So what Im asking is what is the best way to go about single target healing as a resto shaman in heroic instances. The regular versions of these instances don't phase me but amp them up in heroic and all of the sudden my heals seem to lose meaning.
give me some advice I can use and leave the shaman hate in some other thread thankyou

Enchant your crap, especially your pants. downrank healing wave to 8 or so. You can prime the tank before pulls with rank 1 to get 3 ways (and possibly ancestral fort) up ahead of time.
Also, buy the ring from honor hold rep

Why would you use lesser healing wave as your primary heal? I usually just find a tank and 3 random DPS, CC nothing, and chain heal my way to victory. Shattered halls with a druid, ret paladin, and 2 DPS warriors was pretty fun. We killed Kargath with 35 min left on the timer.

I have to agree with the above: enchant your gear! You could get another +200 healing and at least a dozen mp5 with just basic enchants. Throw away the rings and neck you have now and get the S2/S3 PvP stuff, they're better than anything you'll find in Karazhan and will only take a few days of PvPing to get.
Once you're done with that, get your engineering up and make the goggles.
Your spec is sub-optimal as well. You'll get more mana to play with in both heroics and raid instances by moving the points in Ancestral Knowledge to Totemic Focus (you can search around the official WoW forums for the math if you're interested, but Totemic Focus generally outperforms Ancestral Knowledge in fights longer than a few minutes).
