		<description>Hey Keeva,

I was on vacation when you posted this, but I just wanted to wish you well on your new 10-man guild.  My old one&#039;s also in the process of reinventing itself as a new 10-man one and though it&#039;s still a lot of work, it&#039;s fun!</description>

		<description>@ Keeva - Yay for advice. Thanks a ton! I made the switch to Nourish last night and I&#039;m liking it a lot more. I&#039;ll probably swap back over to WG if I find myself doing more raiding.

		<description>If you find you&#039;re doing mostly 5 mans, then the WG glyph does lose a lot of its value. Of course, it will still heal a pet (for example) as the 6th target, but that doesn&#039;t really warrant a whole glyph!

I would go with Nourish, personally, as Nourish will be your all-round go-to spell when people are taking heavier damage that can&#039;t be healed with HoTs alone. Rejuv is ok, but in small groups I don&#039;t think it&#039;s really worth it (it&#039;s more for large groups with heavy damage on everyone). Regrowth is also ok, but requires you to already have a Regrowth on your target for you to get the bonus; few people chain Regrowths anymore, now that Nourish has been buffed.

So - Swiftmend, Innervate, Nourish would be my choice.

If you started doing more raiding, I would swap back to WG.

At the moment I&#039;m running Swiftmend, Innervate and WG for raiding - I&#039;ve been out of the raiding loop for a while and I&#039;m finding some hardmodes a bit of a mana pinch - plus others in my raid are often begging for innervates, so I figured I&#039;d run with that glyph for now.

I find I&#039;m using Nourish quite a lot in TOC though, so I&#039;d like to get that back sometime soon. Probably in a week or two when I&#039;m more back in the raiding groove and I can be more conservative with my mana :)

		<description>Much to my dismay, I&#039;ve been healing a lot more on my new 80 Druid more than DPS as Boomkin but I&#039;m really starting to love Tree healing.

I&#039;m still unsure about the major glyphs and right now I&#039;m using Innervate, Swiftmend and Wild Growth but I&#039;m running more heroics than I am raiding so Wild Growth isn&#039;t getting a ton of use. Would you recommend swapping out Wild Growth with Nourish instead or is there another major glyph that would suit me better?

		<description>Awesome :-)

The original guild I joined recently reformed on a new server and a bunch of us transferred to be back together again. It has been awesome to be back together again, so I know how you feel. We haven&#039;t gotten back to raiding much yet, as their is a lot of real life stuff going on, but that feeling of being home again is nice. :-)

We have a similar philosophy, where we want to keep it small and 10-man for now, and see how it goes. :-)

Look forward to more posts about the successes.</description>

		<description>Congrats Keeva!

I myself enjoy 10mans more. A much more homey and relaxed enviroment IMO than 25mans.</description>

		<description>About damn time you got back to the raiding game, my lovely Keeva. I feel sad that I managed to reroll Alliance and won&#039;t be able to apply to the new Inex (even with the shiny new faction changes, Premade&#039;s been a good guild).

Pre Emptive grats for bitch slapping TotGC and Algalon.  :grin:</description>

		<description>We&#039;ve come from a 4x4hr schedule (often more hours, and sometimes more nights) down to 3x3hrs. To us, this is far more relaxed. I wouldn&#039;t really call it &quot;casual&quot; though, and I&#039;ve been avoiding using that term in-guild - we&#039;re not casual, we&#039;ve just reduced our hours. I&#039;ve been saying, &quot;We&#039;re not hardcore, but we are serious.&quot;

Many of us are still &quot;hardcore at heart&quot; and want to push to get as much done in the week as possible, including hardmodes and perhaps even some firsts, but I&#039;m trying to keep it to fewer nights and fewer hours, so people don&#039;t feel like it&#039;s raid raid raid all the time. I find people start to resent raid times because they feel they never have time to do what they want, so hopefully the shorter nights will help to combat that.

Strangely, I seem to have less time to myself than I did when we were raiding more.. :P</description>

		<description>Grats on retuning back to raiding and the toon you love. 
I do however find it interesting that you note that a 3x3 schedule is &quot;casual.&quot; My guild raids a max of 2 nights a week and no more than 4 hrs a time, and we think that is enough. 

But guess that is just interesting to see how different guilds are.</description>
