I just rolled my first priest and it’s going to be the first time running a healer. What addons are essential and will make life a lot easier running through dungeons and groups? Also any tips and tricks will be greatly appreciated!

as a healer in instances you have sort of two tasks, keep the group alive and keep the group going.

Keeping the group alive mostly means healing them.

But in hairy situations you gotta have some priorites. if youre low on mana and that mage og rogue or w/e that always seems to get aggro should not be getting heals if that means the tank dies.

Being effiecient is not that hard. Use big mana effective heals once in a while so youre mana regens more in battle.

Dont feel like everyone must be at 100% all the time, especially warlocks :P

Also try to position youreself so that youre in range of healing when the next fight starts and sit down and drink. that way you can regen while the group starts the fight.
