I’ve been spamming Ara-Kara as a follower dungeon on my Holy priest for Nerubian Chitin. And I gotta say, every time I get to the fear spider (Ixin) its super frustrating cause the NPCs just don’t kick.
Interestingly enough - my interupt tracker says that only the mage has a kick - and the hunger, shaman, and prot paladin don’t have kicks as NPCs? So I’m relying 100% on this mage NPC to kick for me.
Same with other frustrating casts further in the dungeons. Feels frustrating in a follower dungeon and not being able to do anything >.<
Like - I would love Holy / Disc getting some type of regular kick in M+ - but at the very least give us something for solo content / follower content >.<
You dont need to kick anything in follower dungeon you can legit pull everything and kill it
I mean - getting feared for 5 seconds and there’s nothing I can do about it is annoying
Yea its not critical in follower dungeons
Blizzard gave everyone else one. Why not the two healing specs for priest?
I’ve always been curious about this - like why can’t priests just have silence as a class tree thing instead of spec tree?
i mean…there’s psychic scream…
but no, i think all specs should have a kick now at this point.
can make it 45s on heals if its that big an issue for healers to have it

I don’t want a kick. But then, I don’t do challenging content really.
I have enough buttons.
Why can’t there be a spec or a few specs that lack a common tool? Why does everyone have to have the same things? Right back at you on the philosophical pondering of game design.

For this mob (Ixin) it’s immune to scream 
Oh - I agree - there shouldn’t be “everyone has everything” - but it just feels horrible being the only two specs not having a kick. Though legit I’ve “interrupted” more as a priest with Scream and HW Chastise than specs with “actual” kicks.
In this instance I just got super frustrated in solo content (follower dungeon) where the NPC followers weren’t using their kicks (and according to my addon 3/4 of them didn’t even have kicks) and I was left to run away in fear without being able to control what happens !
Does it matter? Is it actually needed? (In this follower dungeon) - absolutely not - but it does highlight the dependency disc / holy has on other people doing XYZ.
Like I wouldn’t even imagine trying Zekvir ?? And “Let me Solo Him” As holy or disc cause I couldn’t be able to stop the heal - since I’d have to lean on the RNG of Brann which is horrible.
Which means one of the new pillars of end game (challenging solo content) is impossible for two specs potentially due to their lack of kicks 
Though I know Zekvir is tuned around your class’ kick CD - curious how it’s tuned for Disc / Holy? I’ve tried once as holy but it was rough
Edit - both of my complaints here would potentially be solved if I had pet bars for the NPCs - that way I could control their kicks when needed - I like that idea actually very much actually.
