Just some general advice. If you're trying to have a Disc build for both healing and PvP, and you want benefits in both, best thing you can do is spend fewer points in the Holy tree to get the PvP talents needed.
Now, having slightly, and I mean really slightly, less healing performance you're gonna have to adjust your healing style a bit to compensate.
Something like
this
is what I had in mind. Still, I am no PvP expert by any means, but I do know that you still can heal even after loosing those points in Holy.
Now, I personally wouldn't want to loose 5% crit, but for most 5mans, you should be okay.
I hope someone else can give some better feedback.

Quick answer is no. Not if you wanna do good and be as optimized as possible.

Hey,
Imo you could have a pve build that still does well in bg's/arena's if your just having fun.
You still have crazy mitigation that still takes a few people to take you down without having to sacrifice any pve talents.
I bg with my raid disc spec, its not ideal but still is fun.

You can BG as PvE ret and kick ass easily enough. Don't try going into Arena though with it as GG you will get eaten alive. Made that mistake yesterday. Went into arena in PvE gear with PvE spec after raid (forgot to change) and got 3 shotted by a ret/feral. We loled hard when we realised why :P

If you are planning on doing BGs, the PVE spec should do just fine. More so if you get people who understand that keeping the healer protected and alive = victory because they stay alive.
I aggree. I use my PvE build in arenas and coupled with some PvP gear, it generally takes 3-4+ enemies to kill me. You go into the arena, the build becomes less valuable, but the only major change you need to make is switching
Twin Disciplines
for
Unbreakable Will
. I consider everything else fairly minor and it definately allows you to still PvE heal.
For BGs I would actually prefer a PvE build. You don't get attacked as often and the larger heals help keep everyone alive.
Edit:
Improved Mana Burn
is a MUST for arena, but isn't apart of a PvE build. Furthermore, it isn't the most optimal choice for BGs b/c most enemies tend to die before you could burn thier mana.
