t9 as whm, any tips?

Use Shroud the moment you are at 800-900 mana, this will probably occur around the first Dynamo - Afterwards just keep it on cooldown. If you're healing effeciently you should be at around 3.2-3.6 by the times the golems spawn (with a mana pool of 5k at least, if you're far below this i would recommend using more piety gear than DET or CRIT)

Only time you wouldn't use it on cooldown is if you get lucky with kill order on golems, green dying first and blue silenced, you'll then likely have full mana by phase 3.

Believe it or not, phase 4 isnt actually very healing intensive, so dont be frightened if you see yourself entering it with sub 2.5k

If you're still having mana problems, you could consider using crafted gear and socketing piety. Many people underestimate the amount of additional mana you get from that 2% regen over a 13m fight.

After reading this thread I'm wondering if I should put pie in my novus...

There's always room for more pie.

Oh. Wait...

I hope you don't mind me quoting like this:

[...]Yes, I know to Stoneskin tank on Beak/explosion[...]

It might something to do with gear on this mechanic, but I tend to just focus target Nael, watch the Ravensbeak channel and time my Cure II to the attack. The scholar does the same with Adlo. So far, there hasn't been an issue with the tank getting one-shot from the attack since my group tank-swaps after it hits. I'm not sure if using stoneskin is more mana-efficient or not as compared to a Cure II. Though mitigation might be preferable to reactive healing.

[...]Medica II + Medica on double Meteor Stream[...]

I think just a Medica II is enough here if you lay a Cure I on the party members getting double-tapped by Nael. My group calls out when someone gets two bops during Meteor Stream, but it requires clear communication over VOIP.

In general as a WHM, I try and use DS with my Medica-spells, and dump enmity with Shroud afterwards. Since you still build aggro on Nael during the golem phase but the tank can't interact with her, you want to make that enmity reduction if possible. One of the first times we got to Heavensfall, Nael jumped on me instead of the tank because of that and subsequently turned to cream the rest of the party :<
