How to heal dungeons at level 45

Your heal loop

Press the first one that is ready.

Keep up:
  1. Prayer of Mending Rank 1 Every 10 sec

    Use it whenever it is ready, every 10 sec.

    33% of your healing
  2. Greater Heal Rank 1 Filler

    Cast it with the mana and time left.

    67% of your healing

The first 30 seconds

When to press each one from the pull. The blue line under a press is the global cooldown (1.5 sec) or cast it holds: nothing else on the global cooldown can go until it ends, so of two that are ready together the higher one goes first.
