2 Out of 3

Classes Priest
1

We have 2 Healing specs and 1 DPS spec… Anyone else think its crazy that at least one of our healing specs wouldn’t be in the top 3 healers. Literally called PRIESTS. It implies healing and we still can’t really compete with the top tiers in most areas that matter.

Absolutely not:

Here’s a list of things that the “2 out of 3” Healer Class can’t have either:

  • Battle Rez
  • Poison Cleanse
  • Curse Removal

We are the base healing class - Everything gets what we have, because healers are designed off of us – If they were to give us everything that you asked, it would make healing to homogenous, and only the brand new classes are allowed to have stacked kits with all movement, removal, and utility.

You take what you get, and you BETTER like it!

The #1 healer is priest in m+.

I saw that, pretty cool. Holy priest is another animal than disc in mythic+ though.

that’s funny.

If you’re worried about priest viability specifically (assuming you are since you mention having 2 healing specs), then we’re top tier in PvE content right now with Disc being the current #1 healer in M+ (post-resto nerfs and enh/ele/pally buffs) and Holy being the best spot healer in raid.

The unfortunate thing about being in this state is more that if you want some kind of utility or buffs, or you’re playing Shadow - blizzard has always seemed content with letting one of priest’s specs be good in content and ignoring the others for whole patches. So it’s gonna be a while before the underperformers aren’t underperforming.

Well you see, when they reworked Ret Paladin in DF Season 1 and it was ridiculous, the excuse was “They only have 1 DPS spec, so it has to be good.”

So because Priest has 2 healing specs, we have to make sure both are bad… Or something. I dunno I don’t work at Blizzard.

Yes I know Disc is decent in PvP and M+. But both specs are battling for worst healer in Raid atm which is a bit sad. Raid comps currently run H-Priest for the buff, not cause they actually want them there over another healer. If shadow were good atm, neither would be brought to raid.
