Looking to start leveling up a twink healer as that's my preferred role over DPS classes. However, since I've only been twinking 19's for a month or so I figured I'd ask some of the more experienced in this bracket about the pros and cons of each healing class. And what you feel is overall, the stronger healing class. I have every piece of BoA gear so that isn't an issue, I'm just looking to be as effective as possible. Thanks for any input!!
19 twink healing classes

Disc priest epic bubble penace. Pally stun instant heals nice armor if you gear right. Shammies arent such great healers. Druids are better than sham but no where near pally priest.
pallies hold up to the burst the best, and will always be top heals.
priests are essential to a good team, they heal well, bubble and have important ccs.
druids and shammies at present are support classes that have their place. but their ability to counter this bracket's burst is presently frustrating.

I lol'd hurrx. So many fail pallies
Reason I'm asking mainly is because I currently have a 19 resto druid. I love how I can cross the map easily and catch up to people that out run me, however I find that my heals just aren't as powerful as the pally or priest.
So I'm debating on keep playing my resto druid and further push my mastery of the class or take up the paladin or priest class.

Druid was an amazing class BC-Lk, wasnt bad in Vanilla but thats when it shined. Now without HT you'll just be casting regrowth and wasting that HoT.
I would agree with Pally being top healer and very easy to play, but not always top heals, healers used used to very close in regards to effectiveness, but priest was always top represented till now, and I think blizz will buff them back to the top spot.
Priest does have alot going for them right now, particularly if you go holy Imo. Chastise and Desperate Prayer really push it ahead in utility.
Sham is garbage tbh, It wasn't bad when 2.5 sec heals were more standard, but now 1.5 or less with haste just throws them into the background. Earth sheild sounds nice, but it doesn't heal for that much so their overall output is low. I would go enhance imo.

I've been playing a resto druid healer/fc/support for a couple of weeks now, and it's quite fun. Wouldn't call it the best, no, not at all, but it has a few good sides:
-Bear form, which will be buffed in 4.3 to provide some more survivability.
-Travel form, this helps you get away from most classes if you know how to use it. Very good mobility, there are very few situations you aren't faster than all the other classes (you can form out of any roots/slows). Also, you are the fastest to reach the flag in the start of the game, and fastest player in the field (besides rogue sprint which is slowable, has cd and lasts for only 8 sec). Lets you get into places other classes will have to struggle to get to.
-Entangling roots. A great support for when you're not carrying the flag and you are helping the FC to cross midfield. Just spam root on every opponent near the fc
only other druids will get away from this easily, and they usually are not much of a threat to the FC.
-Cat forms prowl. You are one of the 2 classes able to stealth. Well what can I say about stealth, you probably know its benefits.
The downside is the heals aren't very powerful at all. But if you're looking for a fun class to play, IMO druid is the way to go!
Yeah that's that about my druid advertising... ^^
