bah....
 
Math was done on the ptr with resto druids and the wild growth glyph is actually an hps loss even while affecting an extra target so now resto druid will only have 2 viable major resto gylphs?? And while using wild growth glyph it is a 35% nerf not 20% when factoring it in boooo, i do agree we needed a nerf as we were def way ahead on healing over every other class with all the buffs that the other healing classes are getting esp. preists with hymm i don't see why we wouldn't be right on par with everyone else now it will be all about skill :)
