People wanting SoW at camps
I've grouped with a cleric once in my short time grouping so far on my shaman (currently level 19), so I've been main healer/buffer most of the time. This is fine. I usually rotate buffs so I'm not oom buffing everyone at once, but what gets me is people wanting SoW at static spawn camps. Group in HHP for instance, killing orcs, at the zone line, and people want SoW. I have such a huge mana cost for everything (untwinked) I cannot SoW everyone and heal and buff essential buffs. What do!?
Is this normal? Are people just clueless? Am I clueless and should buff SoW no matter what? HALP | ||

You should SoW the puller - if he out runs the pulls, he takes less hits, which means you heal him less and save mana. Others in the group - depends if there will be a long run to get to safety - in HHP, you should be able to run to safety without SoW - so tell them if they all want SoW then you will SoW them but then have to hold pulls so you can med up before you are able to heal again. This will normally stop the people who dont really need it.

what's your mana total? sow ends up being a very low cost spell in a couple more levels though.

Avoid grps where you are main healer, if there is no crack present....

In lots of dungeons, people want SoW so they can zone in case of a nasty train. I think this really gets ingrained in their minds, so even when they are in a safe spot like HHK orcs near zoneline, they don't realize that SoW isn't necessary and still ask for it out of habit.

Just do it. 30 seconds of downtime an hour is better than lfg for 15-30min because of min-maxing arguments. Also, you don't want to be known as the shaman who doesn't sow.
If you really hate buffing people against the group's best interests, you'll be a fantastic soloer at 34 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I usually cast it on the people that insist, just because. But it was just a gripe I've noticed since level 9. Just irked me when people want SoW at static camps such as the ones in HHP and others. Thanks for the replies everyone. | |||||

Don't fully buff tank. Most buffs will have little or no impact at that level!
