Should I just go holy from disc?

I am talking about 0s and 4-500k as an average of the entire dungeon. If you had to do 1.2 it was either during a specific burst or your team is ignoring mechanics

It has high throughput during cooldown but outside of them you do struggle a bit, fights with constant high damage like some stonevault bosses are a real pain to heal, namely the duo and the final boss requiring high healing on top of a lot of movement.

Paladins and shamans had reworks, whereas holy priest is essentially the same. I remember when paladins had their rework in DF, then suddenly, there were holy pallies everywhere until they were knocked down a peg.


Overall, I’m mostly still happy with how my holy priest is playing. I’m going to start heroic palace this week, but on normal Broodtwister last night I was able to log 901k hps with an ilvl of 599 (our raid size was less than 20). I spiked over 1.25m hps on the one council attempt I had time for last night. So many were having disconnect issues, unfortunately.

I’m also old and disabled. I’m sure a more capable player could do much better.

I have no idea what some of you are talking about. Holy blasts in keys. It blasts in the raid. You’re not competing with a presvoker, but you’re doing substantial sustained healing on the lightweaver build.

Play holy, play disc - it doesn’t matter.

I’m having a great time as Disc, granted I am running a very different build than most disc Priests focusing on heals and shields with crit and vers and all in on the left side of the spec tree rather than pushing haste + Void Summoner. My PW:S’s are huge and rotating Premonition easily gets me through the gaps between my other cooldowns.

You’re still living the dream of the pure healer disc?

I suppose the only really brutal downside there is disc is really doing some big damage now, and likely you’d be giving that up.
