i play an elemental shaman. i got 800 spell dmg now in my pvp gear. i do mainly 2v2. in 2.3 if i take the gear with only +healing on it, i will not lose an enormous amount of spell dmg and crit and will gain a HUGE healing bonus. if i specc elemental i will still have all the good talents from elemental but have that huge boost in healing. in 2v2 i play with a lock (ofc) and i heal more than dps and ofc i got the "EM chainlighting, NS lignthingbolt, shock" nuke to get someone down fast. So this way ill lose a little nuke but gain a lot of healing. so getting the healing gear would make more sense to me in 2.3. am i missing something here? opinions? and healers will become retardedly overpowered as if they werent already.

What he's trying to say, is that with 2.3 coming and +dmg getting added to all healing gear, he believes he will be able to spec elemental but wear healing gear and do well in 2v2 arena.

Everyone who EVER thinks a holy spec will be overpowered just because it has some spell damage available now must be a real genius..... not.
Same counts for caster specs wearing heal items, you will have NO +hit, almost no+crit and your mana will be burned down like nothing while dealing less damage then you would have with real spell damage equip.
That's just like those dudes that always see druids having 30k Armor 18k life, while hitting for 1k non crit and healing for 7k .... all at once ofc :P
I can tell you what this will change: It will make Holy specs be some kind of VIABLE in 1on1 and generally solo environment.
I'm playing a holy priest and pala in full epic and every god damn green/blue DD can fu** me up like nothing if he manages to catch me somehow, atm. Because i can survive for minutes, but don't get him down. That's what gonna change ...... Nothing more.
Everyone who keeps complaining forgets that Hybrid specs always have some downsides, especially when you consider that you can not cast a damage spell and a heal spell at ONCE + having infinite mana to heal/DD -.-
As a shaman, you'll have LOTS of crit in the arena armor as resto. Every single piece has spell crit on it. Also there's 5% spell crit for lightning spells in the resto tree talents. You can also take spell +hit talents in the resto tree(3%), if you're such inclined. Lightning bolt already costs very little (300ish mana) and will be lowered further in 2.3.

hybrid specs with 2k healing. Will become insane!
as long as they have the haste talents from their damage trees they will be able to do a shitload of damage while keeping up insane amounts of healing.
and yes Disc specced priests will become insane. Resto shammies will become crazy! experience from fighting them, tells me that reflective shield, + dot, + power infusion - now + 1/3 spelldamage. GG
that dot will now be backed up by 600 spell dmg! so yea GG!

Besides, dps gear has had healing on it since day 1. Why should dps classes gain the ability to heal on their dps gear and healers not gain the ability to dps on their healing gear?
Nothing's stopping a healer from wearing DPS gear in the first place, and being a hybrid of their own.
