Some outher utility would be nice as well, priests are masters of mind magic after all
Mind soothe also possibly being a an de enrage, a sleep spell for a long cc, a short term aoe confusion spell would be kinds neat to, there are many avenues they could take that train of thought which is often forgotten about.
sorry sorta inspired from mages getting a mass aoe long duration cc or a short cd knockback ontop of thier already extensive cc collection. New stuff is fun too.
i will agree though out of all the legendary effects in current df trees reverse life grip aka vault of the heavens missing isnkind of sad, it would be a really welcome addition imo and it wasnt used because it competed with throughput legendary slots.
also spectral guise would def be another possible blast from the past
Iirc if it ticked it did more damage each tick and spread until the target was at full health, if targets were sufficiently bubbled, it auto cleared on application
Rets tree looks really noice too lol
Rets tree looks powerful and decently well thought out but maybe a little uninspired. Still good though.
General tree also has points that give two things at once to avoid the âonly useful for X specâ problem.
Meanwhile priests are investing 2-3 points across multiple nodes into things that should be 1 talent.

Fair perspective but I donât think it looks uninspired at all. I would say just the return of exorcism was a huge win.
We did get a nice blue post though so I guess now is to wait to see what changes are coming our way.

pls boon of the ascended needs to come back, as well as fae guardians (for mythics and raiding)
mind games isâŚfine for pvp and in the general tree but the other 2 are such cool abilities for priests that I cant bear to see them go.
Unlikely since shadow is the one needing the damage abilites in the priest tree atm and boon just doesnt work with shadow. Mind games at least can be used by all 3 specs. Fae guardians for kinda the same reason
boon was garbage for shadow, it could just be added to the holy and disc trees instead of some of the meh choices there
You would need to add it directlky into their trees. I still think unlikely.
Nor would it be needed for raiding with lights wrath. IT wont synergise with shadow cov which is likely the go to in keys i think once tuned. They seem to want to push us into that area
thats fine if disc doesnât want it (i dont see why it was the best skill we had in 5 mans) but holy would absolutely benefit from it instead of the right-most bottom tree that is basically just 3 holy fire instant casts and it costs a ton of points just to get it
You are focusing just on keys. Lights wrath covers it in raid. But no i think its unlikely to be added in
Shadow tree should have a capstone that applies Mind Games to all targets hit by your Void Eruption.
Boon not generating Insanity is what puzzled me the most.
Boon is a big cd for Holy/Disc, but only really when you have things like Primeforge and Kyrian Legendary knocking it down to a 60s reset. Otherwise on its default 3 minute setting it doesnât offer much.
The ability worked because it also healed the group each time you healed the group each time you used Nova and Blast so you as the Priest could just focus on dumping damage and youâd keep the tank up.

All you americans waking up now?
I think the guy is thinking more in keys then raid. I dont think they want to add something back in that both specs depended on so much. I think they want to break that cord
Well, the thing is that a damage focused Priest build is an M+ thing because Boon doesnât translate well into a raid environment for Holy. The only time I ever went Kyrian in raids was when I was going for meme 99-100% damage parses in SoD.
For Disc they use it for their atonement ramps. Before that they were using Mind Games⌠so I wouldnât be surprised if Mind Games becomes the default pick for Disc again.
Im in an achive run atm. Want to stab myself in the eye. But yes using venthyr, mind games and scroll of recall for double penance makes it fun. A blood dk friend forgot the other day disc uses boon to heal as well as damage whereas holy is more for damage
Yes and lights wrath in raid
I think bliz probably want to separate holy and discâs throughput from 3 minute cooldowns like boon. Part of the reason discs spells do absolutely nothing baseline.
