So the other day I was watching a video of Nihilum's first Al'ar kill, from Awake's PoV. And I noticed that he was overhealing a helluva lot. So I thought about this a bit, and then I said to myself, 'well, if you're not oom before the end of the fight then it doesn't really matter how much you overheal.' And I tried healing more agressively - i.e. keeping Rejuvenation up on the tank I was healing constantly as well as lifebloom, and using Regrowth where I would normally use Rejuv (this was on FLK), and he was in much less danger of dying than normal. So I'm going to put this into practice more often - on hard hitting bosses, i.e. FLK - well, the shaman add, and the hunter add since our protadin tanks both the hunter and the pet - Tidewalker (if I ever heal anything but watery graves on Tidewalker), Hydross when at +50-100%, Gruul later in the fight, etc. Hopefully this will lead to less dying by tanks and more epics by us.
I also got the 2-piece T5 bonus yesterday (shoulders + pants now), and I reckon that's a pretty good reason to start using Regrowth on tanks more. I'm considering respeccing to include Imp Regrowth in my spec as well.

Keeping you tank topped off also does wonderful things for their sense of security. Has a healer, you literally have your tanks balls in the palm of your hand.
