What is an normal/good Harmony uptime?

A Resto druid in our 10-man, her healing is on the low side and while I am not an expert on resto heals by any means, I am trying to figure out what she is doing or not doing in hopes of helping her healing output.

Going through some WoL logs, I noticed on most FL encounters that her Harmony sits anywhere from 50%-65% uptime. Is this a normal or low?

Here is her character: http://chardev.org/?profile=250253
It really depends on the encounter. Our Resto Druid is far from the greatest, but he never really underperforms either. Feel free to compare his logs to your healer's:

Harmony Uptime
H Shannox - 98.1%
H Beth'tilac - 95.2%
H Rhyolith - 94.7%
H Alysrazor - 65.3%
H Baleroc - 100%
H Majordomo - 87.4%
Those are pretty nice uptimes actually

From the various pugs and the runs i used to do i usually saw uptimes in the 78-90 range.

Keep in mind a fight like Alysrazor has a low uptime because during the dps phase we don't need to heal at all so the uptime drops a lot.
Alright thanks.

I think she needs a mod to help her track her up time.


I'm sure there's a mod for that somewhere.

What I did was set up power auras to shine bright green when harmony wasn't up.

It's pretty easy to keep up with swiftmend and clearcasting procs so once she gets the hang of it it shouldn't be a problem.
It seems low. I would guess she doesn't hard-cast many spells and that she mostly uses hots/instants. I would guess that the harmony buffs she does get are from casting swiftmend.

Of course, this is all assumption, since there is no log.
