Do resto shamans have a healing legendary for m+?

I’ve had multiple workshop keys on the +20-21 key levels break on the last boss this week because our resto shaman healers had a hard time healing through the zap even if no one took any additional damage. When inspecting them, I saw that both of the shamans played the earthquake dps legendary. Do they have an alternative that gives them more healing output, or should I just bring a different healer into my workshop runs?

I can imagine that resto shamans have a hard time there tbh, few examples: resto shamans excells at stacked group healing, so yes the magnetic grapple is hard to heal. Also he can use spiritwalker grace to heal through it. If people dont use any defensives the healer will have it hard.

I doubt it is the legendary at fault.i haven’t played Restoration shaman to know.As priest it is a little hard to heal it as well.(I haven’t tried 20 though).My bet would be different talent and conduit.

And yes they have a healing legendary, tbh its peoples fault that some healers go to a dps legendary. If they dont do 4 a 5 k dps overall as resto they get words from elitists.

When it comes to actual healing resto shammies are pretty weak, but at the same time most pugs are ‘‘zug zug, all about the deeeeps’’

But at the same time, i’ve tried all healing legendaries, they are pretty weak compared to other classes so idk

My suggestion is bringing a diff healer, however if you pug one most prioritize dps sadly

Shouldn’t be the class at fault, you can run DPS legendary just fine and heal it. The healing legendaries are pretty bad in 5-man content, they’re not going to make or break it when healing as a shaman. They’re pretty weak when compared to something like flash concentration.

They do but it wouldnt really help the situation you are descibing.

Shaman is not weak at all, in general. But it is weak on aoe healing when the group is spread and on the move, since it is a caster. This specific fight is not that well for the spec.

So in other words, weak in pugs?

No, actually really strong for pugs. It is the specific fight.

Shamans need to prepare for this pull by casting Healing Rain and Cloudburst Totem at the right moment so they can full heal the party, I guess it’s a skill issue rather than legendary.
If you can’t trust your randoms this is the best one since it greatly offsets bad Cloudburst Totem timing

Damage increase from Earthquake is huge, I think it is better to use Gnomergeran rings and a healing trinket instead of replacing it.

Fated raid vendor so anyone can get it
