That article highlights what I found very frustrating about playing resto, on occasion, in Highmaul. I felt like healing vs. not healing yielded the same results, and the meter looked like crap because we probably had too many.

I do find that for some fights, I'm waiting for people to get REALLY hurt, that way I can actually do my role. Otherwise I'm trying to play around the mechanics to do something useful. Some fights not most.
Also, one of the comments of that article, was from one fo tha tanks in that raid group:
A side effect of that Iron Reaver fight - it also made us (the tanks) score better on AMR's healing required meters because we had more control over our self-heals. With no disc priest bubbles and fewer druid hots, all the little incidental damage that would normally get healed right up wasn't happening, allowing Guard and Blood Strike to make up a greater percent of the overall healing we received. Mataleao placed overall on the fight as well, and while my lousy ass only managed a 93rd percentile I'll take it and be happy about it gosh darnit.

I found one of the culprits (I can't imagine it's the whole reason, I'm pretty sure you're Just Better [tm] than I am):
It's your 2-set. It absorbs for as much as your sacred shield does. IT'S LITERALLY DOUBLING YOUR SACRED SHIELD.
I only started using my 2-set last week -- I only try to use word of glory when I get low (it's my secondary oh shit! when I don't want to use LoH). I focus on uptime for sotr and sacred shield. When you view all the metrics, yes, we're different. But the basic times used and uptimes don't show WHEN you used them -- maybe that's the difference?
