You mean your immersion was completely shattered by someone 60 lvls lower than you doing 500% more damage? Yeah, that will happen. I guess it’s A-Ok these days in Bugland, I mean Blizzard.
Listen, one of the MOST fun things to do in Vanilla is find yourself in a 5-man on a holy priest when you aren’t needed for heals.
The tremendous burst on OG holy priest DPS is INSANE. It’s not sustainable, which is why you don’t see HPriest rolling through content as damage dealers in Classic (not enough mana for that nonsense), but it sure is fun.
IN TIMEWALKING, we can actually live that dream with a more forgiving mana bar between levels 10-15 in the dungeons.
Let us have it. It’s fine. It harms no one.
Yea, my Holy Priest twink easily solo’s everything. Holy Nova is OP for AOE, and smite hits like a mack truck for bosses. even SWP is huge
Well, you can blast and spam as holy if you use your mana regen abilities well, as well as getting enough mp5. I usually end raid fights with little to no mana and top meters due to managing spells vs cost.
It’s fun to play various versions of classic in full green or blue gear and absolutely dumpster people in full epics on the heal / dmg because I’m actually pressing buttons and rotations.
I’m terribly sorry about that… was probably me.
I think you’re confused on the subject matter… at lvl 10 there’s no “mana regen abilities” to manage.
Actually you have to go to lvl 12 to choose Rhapsody… even two levels of “leveling” is a significant DPS loss… i’ve never competed with a 12 Holy Priest Twink… I really never see them, just zounds of Fury Warriors… but I have beat lvl 11 Fury Warriors on my lvl 10 Priest… the lower level you can start twinking, the better. 11 would be the WORST choice for Holy Priest… you wasted a lvl of DPS for nothing… it’s really 10 or 12.
Yea my H Priest twink be doin’ that. It’s pretty easy, stay low level and farm out the max ilvl time walking gear of at least ilvl 60. Sockets are better, special item effects are also good. You will easily solo any instance with Holy Nova spam, and Smite deletes boss fights with immense single target power. You also have pull power with Shadow Word: Pain, and if you pull too much you can simply use Power Word: Shield to make yourself practically immune to damage.
@Holybriefs I think I responded to the wrong forum post, that mana regen comment was for a classic WoW post. You’re correct, twinks can infinitely spam with no regard to mana.
Yeah that’s wild, in timewalking especially — All the 80s with my lv 11 twink are usually like:
- “Heck yeah we hit the jackpot!”
- “Stay with us – Requeue Requeue!!”
- “Finally, zoom-zoom lets go!”

Well, you either go lvl 10 for lowest possible twink (max DPS) or go lvl 12 for Rhapsody (boost to Holy Nova)… but even two levels of leveling is a significant DPS loss, so not sure if it’s worth it or not. I have a full kit at lvl 10 and I annihilate bosses with my slime trinket anyways. I thought about lvl 12 for Rhapsody, but it just seemed losing too much DPS for something I don’t even need, already nuking everything at lvl 10.
Ilvls from TW gear changes every level, so at lvl 10, you get i56 gear, 11 is i60 and I believe 12’s get i64, but ya, got your point.
I somehow ended up in a DF dungeon… I thought I was TW… was so confused… but killed everything none-the-less
I’ll the for the transmogs

you got a fast free run carried by a level 10. whats the issue?
Boring. May as well just buy a boost.
I’m one of these people. Classes don’t feel fun leveling, I’m always grateful for a twink.
The best twink classes aren’t even tanks- they’re lvl 10-11 Mistweaver Monks, or Disc Priests.
Immortal, top damage, and top healing all at once lmao.
Always happy to have one in my group, smash the dungeon to a pulp.
Rhapsody
Some say it’s of Bohemian ancestry.
make your own group instead of joining randoms if u dont like random results then. lol wtf
I don’t do randoms.
