Healing priest tier set bonuses garbage

Thanks for the +14 spirit and 7 mp5 for your 30 second boss fights. Really helpful. Literally anthing else would be better.

Is spirit even that useful for priests, like even if the boss fights were longer?

Feels like spirit’s being phased out given how bosses are designed and mana regen from new abilities.

Set bonus looks pretty useless for my priest healer, but for my resto druid its the bee’s knees!

Those poor healing priests, doomed to forever be D tier because of bad set bonuses.

deep holy gets 25% of spirit as +spell power and healing. traditionally this was used to increase efficiency. which yes lends itself toward being useful in longer fights where say access to a literal mana button isnt available.

Oh dang. You’ll just have to settle for being the best healer in the game anyway.

Tragic.

That’s why I got the DPS version even though I heal. I’d rather have the stam and the plus healing/dmg proc that’s up 70% of the time.

Spirit is good. There’s priest talents that go well with it such as meditation and spiritual guidance.

I’d take MP5 over spirit though, and there’s so many ways to get mana back now, that I went for the int/stam set instead.

Resto sham get -0.2sec cast time on lighting bolt… count yourself lucky that you dint get garb like that…
We are also the worst healer.

Kinda lame that only priest get a healing set and every healing class has to wear cloth to get the best healing power.

Are you having mana or healing issues? With dispersion and shadow fiend? Someone at blizzard actually thought priests would use spirit of the redeemer in PVE on their boots. Any other sort of bonus to +healing ends up just being over healing anyway. It’s always been that way.

That is a real classic thing. I remember the T1 set is also kind meme on this. After all they still want to make it classic alike

Final boss lasts several minutes even during a speed run.

Previously it would last 30 seconds before the deserved outcry got it nerfed by 66% gutting it beyond belief.

Spirit was always vastly inferior to MP5.

Well yeah, but with the current design of Gnomer spirit is even worse of a stat.

You just don’t have time on any of the difficult bosses to wait for your mana regen like that.

There are literally forced intermissions three times on the final boss.

But yea spirit is badly designed, it is known. Especially in light of the button and in light of disperse for priests making int a competitive mana Regen stat.

Maybe we will see gear or runes that boost the amount of mana we Regen during FSR.

What are you talking about?

Mp5 is king right now!
Also, spirit is still good with meditation but not as much as mp5.

As a player in a guild that has teams clearing gnomer in 30 min, I highly value regen on my gear a lot!

I guess you guys dont speed clear.

Mp5 =/= spirit.

Mp5 is a great stat and comes in high quantities on Gnomer gear, a big step ahead of the spirit gear from BFD.

Yes I am aware but meditation makes spirit worth having and not a useless stat by any means.
