So we ALL know Disc has a problem with damage, which is core to disc’s identity.
I understand that buffing the base damage of its abilities can be problematic in a raid environment.
So I suggest that to help improve disc’s damage that you make crystalline reflection legendary either baseline or a talent. It can help add up to 10-15 percent of our overall damage without breaking atonement.
Thoughts? Maybe add it as part of shield discipline?
Well, even though they didn’t specifically say, I don’t think they were advocating for this expansion, but for next expansion.
Personally, I loved Crystalline Reflection, the only problem was that it was really only good when you had Rapture up. Our Power Word: Shields are just too weak on their own.
Instead of healing the friendly target for X amount, it should increase the absorption of PW:S by a certain percentage and reflect damage. Its been such a staple of our spec in the past, called Reflective Shield back when our shields were good without a cooldown. They really should bring it back baseline or as a talent.
What I’d love to see is Inversion Prism (anima power) being turned into a talent. Maybe not as OP as the anima power, which is 30% of healing done is turned into damage as well, but something small like 10% would be awesome too.
I just wish they would give us actual pw:shield back. The spell hasn’t increased in strength all xpac, still absorbing only like 5k damage, meanwhile our hp has gone up like 200%. I love pressing it and not even being able to see the absorb on people because it doesn’t DO ANYTHING. Rapture makes the shields like 18k absorbs, meanwhile we have like 70k+ hp. Literally the most useless spell in the game.
Honestly I think holy nova might get more value. It makes me so very sad how they have completely destroyed disc. They removed its soul, and now it’s just some bad joke. It’s worse at damage than every other healer, it’s worse at healing than every other healer and it’s 100x more work to do LESS. I just want my favorite spec back =(
sigh That i have to point this out again PWS is an atonement applicator. It is not a shield. Yes rapture is not a big shield, its just something that harkens back to the old days. Flavour. Shields are no longer our weapon. Burst healing is. Something even to this day we do very well, more so with double pen and the 4 pce.
I will say i miss Lights wrath booming to fill a raid up when timed properly. Was fun but took some skill to pull off right.
I think mind games will the the spell priests get left over from shadowlands in the next xpac. They wont give us lights wrath back but mind games has that interesting flavor.
Uhh PW:S is still OK. And with Crystalline reflection is about on par sp-wise with flash heal, but applies atonement, too. It’s not a giant absorb anymore, sure, but they specifically moved away from that design on purpose.
Whoah, hey, yes it is. Rapture’s great. Spammable absorbs at that SP is super useful, and extremely good for pre-empting.
