When you dual-spec to holy, anyone with GREATER blessing of sanctuary has it removed. And you have blessing of sanctuary removed from yourself.
Everyone else in the raid keeps a normal blessing of sanctuary.
This means you can dual-spec prot, buff the raid with sanc, then dual-spec holy, drink+divineplea and then go pull the boss with the entire raid (other than you) taking 3% less damage.
It is a bit of an annoying effort to buff 24 people with sanc, but with PallyPower you can just hammer your auto-buff key 24 times which isn't too bad. | Donate to remove ads, get your "DONATOR title, and get access to the MMOwned community's elite Shoutbawx.

Also a nice to use in any raids / groups I suppose?

rather then going through the trouble of buffing 24 people, i'll just buff the 3 tanks each times and done =P
ty for this, +rep |

Normally you'll have role specific buff (BoM/BoW), BoK, and BoS in every raid. This exploit helps when your pally tank isnt around or if he is switching to another specc for a certain fight that doesn't require him to tank.
Anyway, I will definitely be informing my guild pallies about this. 3% less damage seems trivial, but it'll add up saving mana each fight (general vezax much?).
+rep if/when it works
