I think I healed one trip through Sunken Temple, and one run through ramps. That was it for healing till I was in Northrend (money well spent no?). Fast forward to level 70-71 or so and I was invited into a utgard keep run to heal. It was a blooming disaster. I remember loosing folks in the protodrake rooms, boss fights were rough as well. Ingvar just wiped the floor with us to the point that everyone told me perhaps healing anything beyond a garden slug was beyond me. Couple of days later I found out what happened. I took a closer look at my action bars when I was shifted to resto spec and I was still using the healing spells that I had picked up waaaayyyy back before Sunken Temple. I had been trying to heal UK and Nexus with level 40 healing spells. Total newb moment there.

I healed with my character all the way to 80 before I realize I had a spell called "flash heal". Can you believe I healed only with Greater Heal? I had to time everything just perfect but it worked. Needless to say I have learned a lot about healing since then. I did something similar. I healed with my character all the way to 80 before I realize I had a spell called “flash heal”.

I knew after that, with some loading of water, that I would go blow stuff up. Started in terrokar because I knew I should be able to one shot those mobs regardless. Conflag was hitting for next to nothing. Just seemed like crap. After being upset after downing 4-5 mobs and not being impressed at all I realized I never bothered to train conflagerate at all. I was using rank 1 on level 64-6 mobs. Yup, felt really stupid after that one as well.
