I was poking around for a new class to play. This video gave me the courage to finally try priest. Looks insane (and I NEVER played healer before, only dps. for years. I like pie)
Nice guide, one other thing with lightwell is that if you leave it unglyphed so players no longer have to click it, the lightwell will actually heal through walls. So you can put your light well on top of a building or in a house and the enemies are less inclined to kill it and if they do, they have to remove themselves from the battle to do it.
Hey, im new to the priest class, having returned to wow after a 2 year break all of the different healing spells seem overwhelming. In your rotation you mentioned POM Seren Circle Star while keeping our hot up. We have so many more spells and I was wondering in what situations you use binding heal or greater heal or some of the others. Thanks
Noxxic instructs players to stack mastery over haste, despite the fact the extra Renew ticks for the haste breakpoint is stronger than the healing you would get from an equivalent amount of mastery.
>.< You may have SLIGHTLY restored my faith in a holy priest. This coming from a disc priest that duo/single heals SoO. But I'm disc for pvp too and I wanted to give holy another chance (because I HATE it) in 2's. But disc forever for me lol. Thank you SO muh!
Holy priest should heal reliably over 1 million in a pinch. not 200k. Focus of the build is epiphany combined with low hp. you always want to keep your mates just high enough to not be killed during cc, but low enough for the extra heal boni. that way you can drop all spirit stats and go for maximum heal.
in 2s i dont go oom anyway so why should i take mindbender when instant flash heals are yet another instant heal to cast without a risk of being interupted or having to cast which translated to your partner being healed 1.5 later instead of instantly
glyph of light well really? that seems like a huge pain in the ass to be near it and then to have to click it during a fight. idk thought i'll try it out
if you want to chastise u should have macro on it that drops charka stances, instead of going into chakra chastise to cast it, this way you can chastise and you don't get 5s cooldown on chakras, you can instantly heal with serenity now if its not on cd
Hey man great video! Hope you notice this comment, but I was wondering if we could talk in game or you could make a video about it. I just made a holy priest and dinged 90 and I'm almost geared. I've had trouble however in 2s when I'm getting bursted since I have no inner focus or pain suppression. And after that I also have trouble with ooming, now this is all in 2s so hope you could help me out, thanks!
you forgot battle fatigue, that reduces a lot of healing, not 400k heal with both crits on PoM and serenity, but would be 200k, and thats with both critting, flash heal should be pretty common considering that POM and serenity combo only heals half health with both criting
Would you suggest playing disc or holy for 3s with a ret and hunter? I really want to play holy - I think it's an awesome spec - but should I rather play disc for that specific comp?
Do you still recommend Mindbender? I personally choose FDCL, mindbender just gets frozen, feared, killed, etc so it becomes useless. n the flash heals have saved people so many times in arena.
use FDCL, it's WAYYYY better then mindbender, those insta flash heals will help out a lot with different types of situations that you get into in arena.
You forgot to mention that, if you go into sanctuary stance, you get 25% increased AOE healing which is really good if you're going to use divine hymm :)
I find that Mastery > Haste with From Darkness, Comes Light is a lot better than the stated for RBGs. Less hard casting from the talent makes hate worthless.
+ditisnietspeciaal he is using tier 5 gear. i know the head and shoulders, the tokens can be obtained by doing vashjr (lady vashr) raid lvl 70 dunno the rest look it up on wowed
Oh, that makes complete sense... Thanks for the reply, love the vids! Inspired me to make a holy priest :) And what do you reccomend for leveling? is Disc is better till around 60 when you get the shakras? Thanks in advance
i play a disc priest :D so i pick dominate mind as first talent. i like to cc the healers and then if im lucky, they will nearly kill theyre healer under my charm. Then my tanks normally finish the healers :P
I agree on the talents there fdcl is superior to mind blender the ligt Well glyph is useless altho good guide and healing in 5.4 is not any different shamans and druids are way beter but priest is also good needs more skill so see that as an optimistic Side :)
lol mindbender for 2s or anything else pvp related? so u rather have that every 1 minute then the instant free mana heals wich proc so much u make the other team cry cuss ur team dosent go down? ok...
Prioritizing haste over mastery is way too much healing wasted for nothing, I can provide calculations if you want. This is the most common mistake among all the holy guides on the web. Mastery>Crit>Haste
You obviously don't know what Battle Fatigue is, when you're saying that you can shield for 100k... Also, prayer on mending only heals for 100k, if you're a disc priest and has stacked up Grace which gives you 30% increase healing done by the priest. Dominate mind every time in 2s? NO. If you're against double dps you should be going on tendrils or psyfiend (depends on the comb.) Get your facts straight man.

Thanks for the info. Good stuff. After many years, I just recently switched from Shadow to Holy.

Damn I miss this days
Thanks man, I absolutely love holy, always have. I like the feel of it so much better than disc!
Thanks, Ive been practicing Dom Mind in arenas, and realize you can throw a feather b4 and run enemy through it, to get him away quickly! :D
Love the vid man! I just started playing holy priest, and this vid cleared everything up for me. Subbed, can't wait for more content! :)
Thanks for the guide, gonna try holy right away

Oh and btw glyph of MD is a MUST for arena you can dispell an ice block and pala bubbel And wil screw them alot
thnx dude rly helped since I'm new to holy :P
Awesome guide dude, thanks
great video, but would you also want to reforge/gem for spirit as well as haste?

You need to add the battle fatigue when you're talking about 180k heals etc
He Adelf nice tutorial :D one question though. whats better for holy/disc priests, staves or dual wield?
Dagger/ offhand for rbgs staff or mace offhand for 2v2-3-3
Kostas Armanidis You do realise that the dagger and mace are the same stats and everything except the model.
This sounded like Sodah's commentary on Skill-capped.
you forgot battle fatigue, that reduces a lot of healing, not 400k heal with both crits on PoM and serenity, but would be 200k, and thats with both critting, flash heal should be pretty common considering that POM and serenity combo only heals half health with both criting

Then you get props :D plus, noxxic likes to prioritize mastery over haste for holy priests which is bbbaadd. You had useful info regardless
Sick guide bro.
no mention of renew glyph more free ticks?
talking about how fast ur mana regened when out of combat
only seen 1-2 vedios but ill make you my new guru, subscribed :D
Do you still recommend Mindbender? I personally choose FDCL, mindbender just gets frozen, feared, killed, etc so it becomes useless. n the flash heals have saved people so many times in arena.
use FDCL, it's WAYYYY better then mindbender, those insta flash heals will help out a lot with different types of situations that you get into in arena.
Zak Bennett cool thanks, ill keep what im doin then ;)
You forgot to mention that, if you go into sanctuary stance, you get 25% increased AOE healing which is really good if you're going to use divine hymm :)
I went to hall of Legends in Orgrimmar and I have no idea which to get.
how your '' stance '' have 3 sec coldown? when i switch between chakra they have 30 sec coldown.. ?im lvl 85 did i miss something?
I find that Mastery > Haste with From Darkness, Comes Light is a lot better than the stated for RBGs. Less hard casting from the talent makes hate worthless.
+1, true, true and true.
talking about "ridiculous" heals without implying that its gonna be reduced by battle fatigue
is the glyph for shadowword death a option for breaking cc?
absolutely
and if I want to use it I should probably exchange it for the lightwell glyph right?
Brilliant, thanks :)
Could you please make à vid where you tell us wat transmog you use
+ditisnietspeciaal he is using tier 5 gear. i know the head and shoulders, the tokens can be obtained by doing vashjr (lady vashr) raid lvl 70 dunno the rest look it up on wowed
So you dont run with outs?
Disc is OP
Completely true.
What Addons are you using?
Every other guide suggests Mastery over Haste, do you keep this stance?
pvp guide that has mindbender over From Darkness, Comes Light? if you even did reach high ratings in that patch you really made it hard for yourself
What do you mean by palm? New to priest and just switched from disc
PoM - Prayer of Mending
Oh, that makes complete sense... Thanks for the reply, love the vids! Inspired me to make a holy priest :) And what do you reccomend for leveling? is Disc is better till around 60 when you get the shakras? Thanks in advance
Timzy just finished leveling a priest and disc is better untill you enter pandaria imo... then it kinda drops off from what I've noticed
Robert Sieniawski exactly how i felt
Do holy priests use Circle of healing in 3s or 2s? i find it a bit useless.
What Addons do you use to change your ui
What helm is that? For transmog reasons.
It's the tier 5 pries thelm, drops off of KT in the Tempest Keep.
I personally don't use noxxic, I just like giving another opinion.
Subbed
Ok 1.) FDCL procs off renew, so it procs alot. 2.) Spectral guise does not get you out of combat.
Some of his mechanical statements are wrong
casting divine hymn without macro that switches you into charka sanctuary
the healing pvp 4-set reduces the CD of chakras by 25 seconds.
i play a disc priest :D so i pick dominate mind as first talent. i like to cc the healers and then if im lucky, they will nearly kill theyre healer under my charm. Then my tanks normally finish the healers :P
No 'From Darkness, Comes Light' lol.
I just wanna know hwo the fuck do you deal with melee. if 2 melee get on me idk how to get away and I get fucked up
what transmog is that
***** and where can you get it or buy it please?
spirit-Haste -Crit For arenas / Spirit-Mastery-Haste-Crit - for rbgs
I mean *Sanctuary with Divine Hymn
I agree on the talents there fdcl is superior to mind blender the ligt Well glyph is useless altho good guide and healing in 5.4 is not any different shamans and druids are way beter but priest is also good needs more skill so see that as an optimistic Side :)
lol mindbender for 2s or anything else pvp related? so u rather have that every 1 minute then the instant free mana heals wich proc so much u make the other team cry cuss ur team dosent go down? ok...
Holy Priest 5.4 season - reroll a shaman or a druid
"Move Everything"
Prioritizing haste over mastery is way too much healing wasted for nothing, I can provide calculations if you want. This is the most common mistake among all the holy guides on the web.
Mastery>Crit>Haste
You're a few patches too late for that statement.
Way to call Flash Heal Flash of Light dude… pro.
Crucify me.
No need to state the obvius
You obviously don't know what Battle Fatigue is, when you're saying that you can shield for 100k... Also, prayer on mending only heals for 100k, if you're a disc priest and has stacked up Grace which gives you 30% increase healing done by the priest.
Dominate mind every time in 2s? NO. If you're against double dps you should be going on tendrils or psyfiend (depends on the comb.) Get your facts straight man.
well mastery is op as hell for pve but ya not too good for pvp. great guide though tanks :)
Good until noxxic.
Haha tryhards are funny, need a diaper along with those addons who hold your hand in pvp? lmao
