GC’s happy with healing in Ulduar

Ghostcrawler has appeared in two different threads talking about healing today, and the gist of it is that he’s happy. He’s happy with healing and the way it works in Ulduar: there’s a good variety between boss fights and phases, there are intense moments and pauses in the action, and he says they’ve got things to a point where they like them. Later, he says that while in Naxx, you don’t really have to warn the healer too much (you can basically tell them to heal the MT and leave it at that), Ulduar requires healers to get into the rhythm — sometimes go all out, and sometimes hold back. He does say that too much mana is still an issue for them, and if anything gets nerfed in that department, Replenishment will. But he doesn’t expect too many nerfs for a while.
That doesn’t mean, of course, that the big healing update is out the window — GC still hints that there are more changes in store for healing, and we’d bet coppers to gold that there are both mechanic changes and possibly even a hero class due for healers soon. But for now, healing is where they want it in the current content, and it sounds like most players agree.
Now, there’s just PvP…
