You were asking about talent build that'd be good for PvP healing the other day.
Not sure if there are any "cookie cutter" specs for it since druids are generally considered worst PvP healers - that's not saying druids are BAD PvP healers, just that the other healing-capable classes are somewhat better at it mainly due to having better self-defence tricks up their sleeves.
One option of course is to go all out healbitch with Hamstring form and simply heal off the damage you're getting and hope someone else will come and cut them off you before you go oom. But don't think that's what you had in mind.
Here's a lvl 60 build that i'd try out if i wasn't so hairy-brained and addicted to Mangle:
5/11/35 (http://www.wowhead.com/?talent-bc=MzLZVMhoZVEI0cq0zs)
Bit spread but here's me reasoning:
- Nature's Grasp in Balance is pretty obvious for PvP, going full imp. makes it a sure grab as well.
- Picks in Feral tree to get Brutal Impact (longer stuns) and mainly Feral Charge which is good for spell interrupt, immobilising enemy and even getting clear from melee by charging someone further away. In some situations you can use it to kill fall damage as well. Feral Aggression over Ferocity and Thick Hide over Feral Instinct as the talents in this build from Feral tree are for self-defence rather than offence.
- Resto tree: Furor because it'll give you immediately enough rage for a charge or a Bash when shifting to bear - one of the prime PvP druid talents. Nature's Swiftness is a must for PvP, Swiftmend also for emergency heals.
That might work nicely in PvP, definitely lays ground for more mobile playstyle rather than stand-heal-heal-heal-die go again :p
