Precise Resto staff VS Powered resto staff for trails and 4 man dungeons, which is better?

Wrecking_Blow_Spam

Powered = more healing
Precise better chance for crit heals.

Which is better for 4 man dungeons and 12 man trails?

I have the maelstrom resto in powered and precise. What in your opinion is better?

Normally I think on MSA staff precise is better but powered 7% healing is very nice in theory.

The difference between those options would not be large enough to change who lives and dies as a result of your healing. Precise strikes would be somewhat better if you are also contributing damage from dots or other attacks on your restoration bar.

I haven't checked the math lately, I believe powered has a bit of an edge if your only goal is higher average heal rate.

I find Powered to be only useful in PvP.
A Restostaff in PvP is used almost exclusively to keep yourself alive so if it fails to do that, what's the point?
Nirnhoned might have a spot in that department too because it gives you a higher spell damage rating and helps with damage but since you're only ever getting a Nirn staff as a trial reward, often times, you aren't going to get a nirn staff for the set you're running.

Of the 2, Precise is better merely because it helps your damage more and that's very important in a trial setting.

You are really going to need to change your name... Or are you the rare 2handed healer

Precise, you can heal as good as powered and do better dps at same time. Personally I use a sharpenend for J beaming and jabbing stuff while keeping up with heals
