Q u o t e:
Regarding AoE healing in general, it's kind of a chicken and egg problem. Unlimited mana pools through potions in TBC content meant that heavy AoE damage was necessary to challenge healers. In Lich King, if mana becomes something we have to manage again, hopefully every fight won't need catstrophic levels of AoE damage tacked on in order to keep us busy. If there isn't constant AoE, healers won't constantly be casting AoE heals.
