Holy, Disc, and Shadow need some love.
Also, Holy needs back its mana regen skill.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

They could just tone down the mana usage of PoH for holy and I would be good. That thing eats!
I wouldn’t mind a buff or two but its not the end of the world

I would like priest to not feel so slow and clunky. It feels very outdated compared to many other classes.
I think the classes overall are in need of a quality of life tuning pass.

Heard. Shadow Priest’s Psychic Link reduced to 15% (from whatever it was last minute, we changed our minds again)

I’ll take Holy and Disc over Mistweaver in the current tier. Holy’s nuke heals are amazing for DPS making dumb mistakes.
But meta! Aight, grab that Druid. Enjoy your soft burst healing when you step in bad.

I don’t trust any Mistweaver who isn’t specced into Restoral. The panic button to end all panic buttons.

Serious question here, but do any healers actually enjoy having to play around their mana? I think it sucks lol, especially in the modern game that is faster paced then classic.

Revival and Restoral are the same thing with different purposes. I’m not even sure how or why a Mistweaver would miss it.
Holy’s a good spec, same with Discipline. Folks need to chill with the meta obsessing. Druid provides better longevity healing but it won’t save all the dumb little mistakes like Holy will.

I just suck at disc, but dont wanna play holy either. priest is hard to get into for me :c (i hate the old god theming of shadow so i dont play it)

Yes. The only annoying thing for me is that the only way to actually spend a significant amount of mana is to use Holy Light, which is usually just overheal and is painfully slow outside of the two instants I get from wings. It’s fun to crit for entire life bars, though.
But yes, mana management is something I dearly miss from playing my priest. My raid group just had too many of them, and we needed someone to swap to DPS sometimes, and shadow priest isn’t fun for me. So I switched to pally a few expansions ago.

I get that. I only played Holy to figure it out for someone else. I play Monk so I can have access to all three roles. Mistweaver is annoyingly unfun this time around.
Holy Paladin was fun back in the day. Felt like Holy Priest but with more on-demand nukes. It’s doing well from what I can tell but it’s night and day between a good Pally and a bad one.
Druid’s not so much of a discrepancy but don’t expect them to save the day immediately.

Honestly, It feels like there’s too many buttons, especially if macro’d. for disc i have two for penance, friendly and enemy, idk if that’s too much or what, but it’s certainly awkward for me

I get that. My Monk uses maybe 8ish buttons with an additional 2-4 for situational things. Holy Priest was around 8 constantly?
Druid’s way too many (And too busy at that). Holy Paladin wasn’t too bad but I was in a bad situation without cooldowns. Shaman? No idea. Shaman’s probably perfect but then you’re playing a Shaman lol.
Pres Evoker looks fun if you don’t mind your party being your worst enemy.

Sadly I mind looking like a limp noodle a lot, even if evoker can feel very fun :c

Saying Holy Pally is doing well is absolutely wild! We’re the lowest throughput healer and not by a little, but by a marginal amount.

Shadow Priest is so unfun to play right now, super squishy, no burst, no survivability, no nothing. Might as well delete this spec

Or… We could get some active mana regen. I’m thinking of a pet you could summon to slap a mob to give you some mana or this new fangled channeled hymn spell that gives your mana a boost that I’ve heard about.
I mean, spamming DPS spells and praying for a surge of light proc is super fun and priestly!

Are we talking raids or M+?

At least for M+, atonement healing feels on the weak side relative to our procs (Void Shield and Shadow Mend), with the exception of perhaps Expiation executes. I doubt Oracle will receive much change, because of Piety. Nonetheless, an atonement buff for 5-man content would be nice.
I find Voidweaver rough – you could double the value of Voidheart and other talents and it would still struggle in PVE imo (PVP being a different matter). Oracle has multiple talents that boost Void Shield and Shadow Mend, whereas Voidweaver has just one - Inner Quietus.

Have you been following the story at all?
It IS the end of the world!
But seriously tho: I think disc could use a buff, or maybe just reverse the damage nerf it got. It’s healing just feels a tad low.
Holy really needs some way to regen mana. It’s odd they just have nothing
