	This analysis is for Paladin healing at level 60. Blessing of Light at top rank increases the effect of Holy Light by '''400''' and the effect of Flash of Light by '''115'''. Holy Light receives '''71.4%''' of the maximum benefit of "by up to" +Healing items while Flash of Light receives '''42.9%''' of the maximum benefit. So, while we do get the number listed for Blessing of Light, we can never get the maximum number listed on "by up to" +Healing items...even if it's plate. (See [[Plus Damage and Plus Healing Items]].)		This analysis is for Paladin healing at level 60.

−	Cast time, amount healed, and mana cost are explicitly listed in spell descriptions.

−	From this it should be clear that ''Holy Light heals faster, but has less efficiency than Flash of Light''. Blessing of Light makes a huge impact which pays back its mana cost with just one Holy Light or ~~two~~ Flashes of Light. Plus, it raises healing speed. Blessing of Light has the effect of "up to 560" +Healing gear for Holy Light or "up to 268" +Healing gear for Flash of Light. +Healing gear makes a bigger impact on Flash of Light because of its lower starting numbers, even scaled for cast time.	+	From this it should be clear that ''Holy Light heals faster, but has less efficiency than Flash of Light''.
