Restoration 3.3.5 PVE Heal
Introduction
Restoration shaman is solid healing spec in this expansion. They can be both raid and tank healers, and an amazing pick for both 10man and 25man. There is two kind of builds that can be used, one with hard haste and chain healing mostly, which is the best, second would be crit manareg and lesser healing wave spec, but I don't think the second is a valid build and I won't bother with it.
Talent
Cleanse Spirit is useful whenever you need to decurse (Lady Deathwhisperer, Halion).

Stat priorities
1. Haste : You want to have 1269 haste, and to never go above 1400.
2. Spell power : After you have achieved 1269 haste you should focus on stacking as much spell power as much you can.
3. Crit : Is a really important stat with your talent Ancestral Awakening : When you critically heal with your Healing Wave, Lesser Healing Wave or Riptide you summon an Ancestral spirit to aid you, instantly healing the lowest percentage health friendly party or raid target within 40 yards for 30% of the amount healed.
4. Intellect : Flat manapool, spell crit and healing spell power from talent
5. Mana regen : It is not bad, but generally you need other secondary stats, and try to ask for Innervates.
Gems
Meta : Insightful Earthsiege Diamond +21 Intellect and Chance to restore mana on spellcast.
Revitalizing Skyflare Diamond +11 Mana every 5 seconds and 3% Increased Critical Healing Effect. I prefer to use this one.
Ember Skyflare Diamond +25 Spell Power and +2% Intellect , great in end content gear

Red : Quick King's Amber +20 haste
Reckless Ametrine +12 spell power +10 haste
Blue : Quick King's Amber +20 haste
Energized Eye of Zul (only 1 for the meta)
Professions, recommendations.

2. Tailor : +98 spell power on average from procs (+295 for 15sec)
3. Enchanting/Inscription/Leatherworking : +46 spell power
4. Skinning : +40 crit
