Hey, I’ve been playing holy priest since TBC and I’m really unhappy about their performance in M+ right now. I think I have some good ideas for how to fix this issue, so I just wanted to post them in hopes maybe the right person will see it.
Here are some quick ways to fix holy priest in M+:
Holy Fire
- Holy Fire now applies its DoT to every enemy it damages
- Enemies affected by Holy Fire’s DoT have increased cast times
- When enemies affected by Holy Fire’s DoT damage your allies, your allies gain a HoT that heals for a percent of the damage taken
Apotheosis
- No longer on the GCD
Improved Renew (talent)
- Improved Renew now has 2 charges and can be stacked (ie you can put multiple Improved Renews on one person)
- Improved Renew now also reduces damage taken by 2% while the Renew ticks (this effect stacks)
Lasting Words (talent)
- Casting a Holy Word on an ally affected by Renew now also spreads Renew to 2 allies, preferring allies not currently affected by Renew
New talent: Improved Prayer of Mending
- Gives PoM fewer stacks and a longer cooldown
- Makes the Power Word: Shield applied by PoM much stronger
- When the shield breaks, the ally gains a HoT for a percent of the damage it absorbed
New talent: Holy Ghost
- Causes Fade to reduce damage taken by additional 10%
- Causes Holy Fire to now reduce the cooldown of Fade
