Am I the only FC?

@FiveSpice I only play a dps so I am not positive on this, but there is a method of logging out and logging in to change specs in WSG before the match begins.

Thanks to this Top Tip from @Tonkks I've been queuing as DPS in my Restoration (Resto) Healer spec.

When WSG pops & I am changed to my DPS/Feral spec.

As suggested, I've then logged out, then immediately back in again.

Lo & behold I have been changed back to my Healer/Resto spec, but not occupying a healer's space, so have been happily learning the art of Flag Carrying (FC) without abuse (I wish - More on that story later.)

Unfortunately now the 8.0 pre-patch is live this little trick doesn't work - stuck as DPS/Feral spec.

If I queue as Healer I'm back to occupying a spot I don't want to (Though healing does seem better now stats etc. are a thing.).

So here are my questions:
  1. Assuming Resto is still the FC spec of choice, how are queuing - Healer/Resto?
  2. Is there now a better FC spec. (The people I watch seem to still be Resto.)
Confused - grateful for advice.

Resto druid is the best FC. Every druid has travel form, bear, cat, etc for carrying well in pugs. Playing boomkin is probably the next best thing.
