WoW Dragonflight 10.1.5 Healer Tier List For Raiding

A look at the Dragonflight 10.1.5 healer Tier List as we continue our adventures in Dragonflight patch 10.1.5.
Patch 10.0 threw a major spanner in the works of every class in WoW. With changes to every single class via new talent trees, it certainly caused some volatility. 10.1.5 will likely see things staying the same for the initial stages of 10.1.5, with a number of buffs and changes to a number of classes.
Note: This tier list is based on data from raider.io and Warcraft Logs. Also, note that you should play whatever spec you want in WoW, and tier lists are completely pointless.
Check out our Tank and DPS Tier lists.

10.1.5 Healer Tier List A closer look
The below information was posted before Dragonflight 10.1.5 came out. This information will be updated post-10.1.5 release if required and will be stated in the text.
Preservation Evoker
With top-tier burst healing, and a raid that has a lot of high, but manageable AOE damage. Evoker has come ahead by a mile in this tier. They also boast high HPS, good raid damage and great healing utility. Basically, they're the closest thing to a “must have” healer we have this tier.
Holy Paladin
As always, Holy Paladin finds a high with their high throughput, great tank healing and incredible cooldowns. Aura Mastery with Devotion continues to be a potent tool. At the same time, Blessing of Protection and Divine Shield provide them with great damage reduction.
Discipline Priest
As strong as ever, Discipline Priest is still one of the strongest in the healing pool. With some incredible cooldowns in Power Word: Barrier, and Power Word: Shield, Disc brings a unique healer kit to the party. Plus, Power Infusion is a key component for providing extra DPS to your raid.
Holy Priest
Not a strong as its older siblings, Disc. Holy Priest still does a good in raid environments but falls behind slightly on the HPS. A key reason they struggle is a lack of cooldowns, with their main ones being shared with Disc. Power Infusion is a key component for providing extra DPS to your raid.
Restoration Druid
While their Utility is strong and their healing is still useful. Though, as always, it's often best to have just the one Resto Druid due to their healing overlapping
Mistweaver Monk
Still not back to its former glory, Misweaver struggles once again in this tier. Mystic Touch, Generous Pour, and Close to Heart provide some cooldowns. That said, healer HPS is pretty balanced, so it won't be a huge issue if your guild uses Mistweaver. For Mistweaver, at least, the issue is their lack of powerful cooldowns rather than their healing throughput.
Restoration Shaman
Probably the healing in most need of a rework soon. Resto Shammy is all about Spirit Link Totem, and outside of that, it's a little bit of a flop. It's clear that in Season 2, Resto Shammy was clearly built for Mythic+, and not so much for raiding. If you love your Shammy, you probably still will. But, there are likely better options in the healing roster.
