My turn: what AAs next?

[Samanna]

I've read through most if not all of these posts, and it looks like I shouldtop off Healing Boon, then get Gift of Mana, Abundant Healing, Resplendant Cure, top off my Critical Affliction, and then get Secondary Forte.

But that sounds really boring, and just in case I misread anything, here are my stats: over 8k hp/mana unbuffed, 577 AAs (6 banked); mostly raid with 3-4 other Shamans; other times grouping MPG Trials or RS groups; current AAs for the magelo-challenged:

PoP Abilities: Advanced Healing Adept 3, Advanced Healing Gift 3, Innate Defense 5, Lightning Reflexes 5, Radiant Cure 3, Spirit Call 3, Suspended Minion 2, Virulent Paralysis 3

GoD Abilities: Swift Journey 2, Spell Casting Subtlety 3, Quickened Curing 3, Critical Affliction 3, Pet Affinity 1, Advanced Spirit Call 2

get GoM first, its so worth it. then go back to healing boon. thats not what i would normally say, because i hate half finished AA, but GoM is such a massive mana saver

Well, about 50 AAs later:

Got GoM 2, then it got nerfed, so holding there on that; didn't even put in audio triggers before the nerf.
Maxed quickened resplendant cure (and even made new button).
Maxed adv crit affl.
Also got pet disc and adv pet disc1 for /pet focus (got tired of pet leaving the cleric mob to beat on the warrior mobs, stupid dog).

With the next 50 or so, I'll top off healing boon (15), then head to disc defiance (25) and channelling focus (12), then check back. Also still trying to get my last MPG AA knocked out, that'll raise my resist caps by another 10.

Channeling Focus for the win. Nothing like having several mobs beating on you and casting through it all to keep yourself alive.

I just finished finished my last Darkhollow Defensive AA, I still don't see any difference after getting all of these.
