First off, I wanted to say my defiler is my alt and so has no raid gear and won't likely see any. I seem to recall reading in these forums that 1000 hps is a good number to know you are healing well. Of course making sure your group is alive is the ultimate sign that you are healing enough. I was hoping for some kind of ballpark hps, so I can tell if a group is just taking more dmg than I can hope to heal. One named fight last night took us a few tries and we didn't win until my hps hit almost 1800. My group was congradulating me, but it was more luck on procs and crits, since I was healing similar to how I was on previous pulls.

HPS depends a lot on what is "available for you to heal" so must be taken with a grain of salt. If your groupmates take a lot of AE damage and/or are wearing chokers, that will significantly up your DPS vs just healing tank. Other healers factor in as well, etc.

1k HPS is generally enough to say you're not AFK during the fight.

1.5-2k is what i'd say is "good" HPS on challenging encounters. Of course "good" and "challenging encounters" are both quite vague terms, but if you want a ballpark figure, that's a good one.

Generally if I hit 2k hps, I consider i've done well.

The highest i ever hit on a 1min+ encounter was just over 3k when solo healing some massive pulls in RE2.

So I'm new to defiling,i raid 6 days a week and i've noticed that hps are great and all but they mean absolute shit if your not curing,can't wait for act to come out with its cure counter.

Thank you for the response Arieste. As far as curing goes, I would hope that curing went without saying. I usually don't stop my current casting to cure, but its started right after that. On my guard, I will get pissed when I am feared and I see the healer dpsing.

Pretty much ALL heal-related info that comes out of the parser means absolute shit if considered on its own and/or out of context. No argument from me on that front.

Wow, if you are parsing 2k HPS what are your other healers doing? And is anybody debuffing that mob?

Well, we do Gynok with 2 MT healers and i was at 1896 hps for last nights kill with mt tempy at around 1200. Looking through Palace fights is the same amount, around 18-1900. Kultak the Cruel was 2144.

Serias

with one tank on the named?

Lets get real

Why do you sound so shocked over a 2k HPS parse?

Uh, no, OT picks it up when necessary. Just posting heal parse so he could compare as necessary.
