Hey guys finally decided on a main for TWW and its Priest. Was wondering if any long time priest mains can share any advice with a nooby on running mainly M+ content.
I would like to go Holy if possible as its more enjoyable for me but how does disc fair? If disc is significantly better i can swap as voidweaver has some cool visuals.
If i am Holy in M+ which hero talents would you recommend? Currently ive been playing with Oracle and havent tried out Archon yet is Archon as good at healing?
And lastly ive missed out on 20 years of priests mogs what older content should i focus on farming in my down time for that sweet mog.
I enjoy Archon. I feel that Holy Priest is a very reactionary healer and Archon helps that playstyle with the Surge of Light procs.
For M+ I usually start encounters with Renew on everybody (casting while running to the objective). Renew can pric Surge of Light and it also buffs my Circle of Healing. When damage starts rolling out I will cast Flash Heal back and forth among people taking damage. I count on the Mastery to offer healing even if they’re currently at full health and it also helps set off Trail of Light talent. The moment things look like they’ll get difficult I can cast Halo.
Surge of Light proc Flash Heals, Holy Word: Serenity. If somebody is extra low there is Guardian Spirit and Power Word: Life. Sometimes I just don’t heal the person with Guardian Spirit so I can focus on the other three group members. Then you can cast Apotheosis to keep the Holy Words flowing.
When there’s a pause in big damage I cast Divine Hymn for the % increased healing that it gives.
Alternatively, if there’s no damage going out, I can DPS with Apotheosis via Holy Word: Chastise, Holy Fire, Holy Fire, Holy Nova, and repeat until Apotheosis ends.
That’s how I play it in M+. You do get a feel for how much damage is going out and who is taking the most damage. It’s reactionary so you’re not healing if there’s nothing to heal but you will learn to preemtively heal for that Trail of Light and for your mastery Echo of Light as well.
I do not cast Prayer of Healing. I only cast Prayer of mending, Power Word: Shield, and Renew when I’m moving and can’t stand still.
I also really like Spirit of Redemption in M+ because when that happens you can just ignore mechanics and heal as much as possible and oftentimes it’s enough to prevent a full group wipe.
And that’s what I’ve got to say about that. I am not an expert.

for mog, i suggest make fuull use of this week burning crusade timewalking
do the timewalking dungeon, raise your reputation with some of the burning crusade faction
burning crusade has a more lowkey mog theme, but still good looking and there are some unique looking set particularly the windchanneller regalia set. check online sources how to obtain it. it requires some burning crusade reputation, quests chain, and rng farming
