Queen. You need 4.7% haste to cap your GCD.
See this
. There is no 11%. It is a number based on faulty calculations, and perpetuated because it appeared on EJ.
I am on a mission.

I agree that staying at 4.7% haste is nearly impossible. However, that doesn't mean 11% is a number with any relevance.
The one thing I do agree with is that haste above that cap is not entirely wasted; any raid healer will still occasionally cast FH or Penance of PoH, all of which will certainly benefit from additional haste. (Well, except FH while you're still buffed with BT.)
And as the youngster above me said, and I will emphatically agree: shield-spamming is a very viable use of disc priests. Especially in harder content, where our scaling deficiencies are magnified, disc shields remain one of our most valuable contribution to raids. I'm not at that level, but I do find myself shield-spamming on several fights, simply because my other healers get so much more out of their direct heals than I do. And I've heard from several high-end priests that disc's use at that level is often shield spam. It's boring, and I find it more than a bit depressing, but there ya go.
