Which Healer.Follow

Which healer solo lvl's easier, i will team up to do PQ's and RVR but there will be times when i will need to do quests solo.
Destruction, but will consider order.

DoK is almost a god at soloing. I haven't found much I can't take on by myself. The heals are pretty lackluster though. So far my best heal is a HoT. While it's great, you can't really "save" someone. The other main heal I have so far has a small Direct Heal, then an additional HoT. The biggest heal we have is a morale ability, so can't be used but once every 20-30 seconds, and that's assuming your able to keep your morale up.

both really. 3-4 mobs at a time, not really a problem. Champion mobs, takes a while but i can take them down. 1 champion with 1-2 regular mobs, not really a big deal. The thing is, with our big HoT, Rend Soul(heals you for some of the damage it causes) and our buff that causes extra damage and heals you for that amount, I can just sit there, beating on a mob, while my health barely falls at all. So large group or one tougher mob, no problem.

Yeah, my first toon was a shaman and I found them to be quite weak damage wise below rank 20 and VERY squishy in PvP. Rolled a sorceress next and though I can dish out the damage, I lose hp fast with backlash and mob damage and can't solo groups nor champions+.

I rolled a DoK and I was amazed at their solo capability. I was able to solo champions and groups of mobs, though it takes some time. The other day I saw a guy pull a group of mobs and was about to help but saw he was a DoK and had it well under control.

I would roll DoK for sure if you are looking for a strong soloing class.

we may only be an aide to the main healers, but if I sit back and really focus on healing in a scenario, I normally top or come real close to the most healing done. I have to use that ability that turns action points into soul essence a lot, cause if I try to go up and melee a bit, I'm dead before I know what hit me. So I sit back and heal. Just make sure anyone whose taking damage is HoTed with both spells, then save your morale ability for when someone drops to half health.

Having the addons Squared and ISHealBot help this A TON. Squared is like Grid from WoW, and ISHealBot is like Clique. I have it set so that left clicking on them casts the big HoT, ctrl+left click is the small direct heal with HoT, and Shift+Left Click is my Morale Heal. Also, alt+left click is raise, but I never use that.
