Thinking about respeccing my friar

Morning folks. I forgot to go to bed and during the slow hours I ran across some friar spec ideas while looking through advice on RA's. Also the "Friars" thread on here got me thinking about some stuff.

My current spec is 48 enh / 39 sta / 21 rej / 8 par and I'm a ml6 perfecter.

I don't wanna make any big changes, I really just want rejuv to 25 (or 33, more on that later) for a better heal...it's not till now that I realize that the spec line heal is better even though it says it heals for way lower than the baseline heal. Mainly because I'm a helpless newb.

So there's a couple ways to go about it:

1) 46 enh / 39 sta / 25 rej / 8 par

I lose the top cold group resist buff and the top selfhaste buff (I lose 6%). Rest is the same.

2) 49 enh / 34 sta / 25 rej / 12 par

Go full out enhance and get the top matter group resist buff. Lower staff to 34. I never really use the 39 bleed style (it's chained after a counter evade. I never get it off). Of course that will mean lower damage. A bit higher parry as a bonus.

3) 45 enh / 34 sta / 33 rej / 8 par

This seems like an exciting spec.
Cons: I only get the middle group resist buffs, lose top selfhaste buff, drop a bit in damage and lose that 39 evade chain bleed style.
Pros(?): 33 in rej lets me reach the next spec line heal and will (hopefully!) make me a healing force to be reckoned with in RvR. Of course, I'll still primarily be a secondary healer (what?), but a better one.


Question is, is it worth the drop in damage and res buffs? I'm thinking in the lanes of mainly RvR. I'm a perfecter at the moment, but am strongly considering respeccing to Battlemaster when I reach ml8.

As you might be able to tell I'm quite keen on the third spec, but those res buffs might be too important.

Give me your opinions. I know you have them.

just had a mess about with char builder. IMO i'd go one of the two below specs

49 enhance
25 rejuve
34staff
12 parry

or
46 enhance
25 rejuve
39 staff
8 parry

the above are for group spec. of which i prefer the 39staff spec one.

for battle friar

46 enhance
44 staff
15 rejuve
8 parry

Yeah, 49 enh, 25 rej, 34 sta, 12 par is the way I'll go. I don't want to drop staff to 29, as I still want to be able to do some damage, but 34 is cool. 49 enh is a must for a group friar once the warlocks arrive I think. And I get to 25 rejuv like I wanted.

Thanks for your input, guys.

Now givf dragon raid :)
