So I'm on my third 80. Just dinged last night actually. I already have an Ulduar hard modecgeared Hunter and a Naxx 25 / Ulduar 10 geared DK Tank, so I wanted a change. I leveled my pally and I'm looking for general tips or advice.
For starters,
this is me
. As I said, I dinged 80 last night and I'm geared mostly in quest and mid level instance blues. I have an epic belt and epic bracers that were BoEs I bought from the guild bank.
1.4k Spell Power, 250 haste, and 21.03% crit. I've heard that these should be decent starting points for heroics, so I'm not too concerned. However, I have a few questions concerning strategy.
As far as I can tell, the best way for heroics is to just Beacon the tank. Throw Sacred Shield on him and then FoL them one time to get the hot going. Then, from what I've noticed is that the heals from Beacon don't overwrite the FoL hot on the tank, so the hot still rolls. Because of this, just throw flash of light on party members to keep them alive and heal the tank via beacon while simultaneously keeping the HoT active by not overwriting it with a new FoL. Then, when the hot is gone, just throw a new FoL on the tank. Rinse and repeat.
Is this a decent way to go about it? Is there a gaping flaw to my logic or anything?
This definitely doesn't cover raiding since in Ulduar, from what I've seen, I'll mostly be keeping HL spam on the tank, especially for hard modes, while flashing other raid memeber with a sacred shield when possible. Somewhat decent? Thoughts? Opinions?

Yes, that sounds fine.
Just be sure that you watch your mana, and occasionally Holy Light if you find people are getting low.
But generally, FoL with Beacon on the tank is an okay way to heal heroics.

In most heroics, you can even skip the sacred shield/hot. Just put bacon on tank, and FoL away.

Don't forget the occasional Holy shock for instant heals AND the buffs!

Don't strive to keep the HoT up if you other things need to be done. It heals for lame amounts, however it does help. Do keep it up when you can - which should honestly be most of the times - but if people need healing just ignore it until things are a little calmer.

Your spell power is abysmally low, ditto mana, haste and mana regen.
Just for clarification, I'm not expecting to be MT Healing for Heroic Heartbreaker any time soon. From what I've seen though, these numbers seem to be pretty decent for starting my heroic farming for the conquest gear.
Thanks for the advice though =)
