Need some WHM Speedrunning tips please

[Spoekes]

Sry for not reading the walls of text above, I may repeat something.

Speedrun heal I try doing this:

At the start I buff Protect and usually swiftcast Stoneskin II now.

That way most of the time everyone has buffs and you can stay close to the tank.
Don't hesitate to use sprint to catch up.

For the healing part,
immediatly pop Divine Seal --> Cure II --> Regen --> medica II
Your tank should be at about 80% life with 2 boosted hots (regen+mII)
If ready, pop Presence of Mind --> Cleric Stance --> 3-4 Holys --> Cancel Cleric Stance.

Reapply regen, Shroud of Saints if ready,
after that it may depend on the tanks and your gear, usually hit some cure 2s to top him off and repeat holy spam till mobs are down.
Once out of fight --> swiftcast stoneskin II

This varies with different ppl, quality of DPS, tankgear etc, but i guess it is something you could build a general strategy from.

I bolded out Divine Seal, because it really rocks, has 60 sec CD (available almost every pull) and I see many ppl not use it.

Edit:

Don't forget that Shroud of Saints will help your mana refill more quickly if you pop it outside of combat. If there is another huge pull coming up (or a boss, or anything really), pop this as soon as the last enemy dies to get back into realistic fighting shape. Good Bards will Ballad if the healer is struggling, but this is rare (More often they will Foe, which is excellent for Holy). It's best to get used to effectively getting the most out of Shroud so that you can fend for yourself. NOTE: It can also be used to dump threat if your Holy/healing takes threat from the tank mid pull, but this is a worst case scenario. Speed runners hate waiting, and you being low on mana is of no concern for the inconsiderate ones.

Efficient use of Shroud in most cases is contrary to your point not after a battle, but when you are at about 60-70%, which when using holy in a speedrun is about 20 sec into the first pull.
