in siege btw shaman didnt do a dilly by running into the bomb, it went off.. if shaman would have ran through it only he would have taken the dmg... you want to do that if the boss isn't ran through them otherwise they will wipe the group.
exactly, in fact the shaman was the only one in the group smart enough to know what to do, sadly just realizing it too late or assuming the the rest in his group knew the mechanic and knew to soak it now that they were standing closer to it.
Thanks Dillisan for doing this! I've been a Holy Priest main since Cata and it's been rough this season. I am KSH and have all my portals but I have stopped at that for now. One tip that I wish I would have started earlier is go Archon for pugging. I was Oracle from the start of season 1 all the way to KSH and only pug and it was rough I switched to Archon and it helps with your mana so much in a pug environment when most won't wait for you to drink and everyone stands in everything. The free flash heals are amazing! Once you get to a certain key level it will be way harder to get into groups. Everyone wants a Shaman or Disc priest. You got this! We believe in you.
I have already learned what players stand in, and the need for mana with Tanks obviously not tracking it...just you wait! xD A few people have mentioned playing Archon, deffo something to check out. Thanks!
Fun fact: character height actually affects healing los when it comes to ramps/stairs. The difference between a goblin and a tauren can be fairly big given those scenarios. XD
Unsolicited advice, Ellesmere has a PI weakaura that tells you who and when to PI as they use cooldowns. It's really nice but also kinda depressing when it never tells you to PI because people don't use CDs haha.
My dream of seeing you play shadow continues, but for now this one looks super fun, can't wait to see how it goes! Great video. KSM is really tough this season compared to previous ones.
18:45 wasn't the shaman's fault, the bombs explode on their own if nobody runs into them, usually causing a wipe. Someone actually *has* to run into them so the bomb only hurts them, usually the tank does it, but anybody with decent defensive CD usage can do it.
Hello! Priest healer main here. I'd recommend getting the WA "Dibs on PI". It notifies you and highlights whenever a DPS uses an offensive CD. If you want to go more in depth with it, you can also customise what CDs to alert for. It is not active in raids by default, for that you will need specify the characters name you want to track to prevent getting spammed.
It's a big step up from previous seasons, and the toxicity seems to increase because of it. Let's hope I run into some of that, it'll make the video more entertaining for you guys, even if I suffer! :D
personally I strongly prefer archon for all content. the healing from halo isn't exceptional, but the crazy amount of free flash heals you get while it's rolling every 60 seconds lines up well with a lot of big damage events.
Glad to catch up with another vid! Haven't seen you in my algorithm since Brackenhide for some reason.. (I may have forgotten, sorry!) Hope the Priest goes well, I'm a heal main myself. (Holy Priest and Resto Druid). Screw what the meta says, I picked the 'worst two healers'.
All good man, I know how it is. I've not been posting much lately, life happened! We back now though. Glad you enjoyed and nice one for playing off-meta, you rock!
We're glad to have ya' back, 100%! And if it matters any, I'd rather be strung up than be called a FOTM enjoyer. My WoW experience hasn't been great as of late, going back and watching your videos helps reinforce the fact I'm not alone in the suffering LOL. :3 PS: GLORY TO THE OFF-META!!!! Seriously guys.. we need to stop being so cruel to each other.
I don't see holy priests too often so this'll be a fun one. Also, if you queue for a follower dungeon, you can get mage food before starting any keys for the week.
I will let you know, although oracle may be good, running archon for lower keys is a lot easier due to halo being so OP Something to think about, I’m 2781 on my priest and archon performs well in higher keys once you learn it, it’s just a steamroll for low keys. Looking forward to the series! 😊
Hey so as a spriest for the bloods and the orbs for the affix you can use psychic scream to deal with that root. Under the priest side of the talents there is a choice that removes snares which I thought would work on city of threads last boss but I'm not sure if it's bugged or what the deal is with that. Also questionably epic is a good website to see check what trinkets are in what order of being the best at least that's what I use for my healers and it has a Sim tool as well
Um, that's not something I have available, but I can show on stream if you stop by. I'll note this down and make some screenshots at some point when I have time!
@Dillisan there's a bit of awkward setup with the macro required for it so if you have any issues it's 99% that - basically just gives you a glowing notif on your screen when the person you've assigned as your PI Buddy hits a cooldown.
Since you mentioned a lack of AoE healing being an issue, a tip: Oracle holy priest has HUGE AoE healing every minute or so if you use Guardian Spirit on yourself and then press Premonition of Piety (or Clairvoyance, which gives you Premonition of Piety as well as the other 2 Premonition abilities). You spam heal yourself and as long as you're at max health and overhealing yourself you'll be able to push everyone's bars up really quickly. You might also want to give Archon a try-it's a lot more straightforward and equally viable in M+.
It's been a while since I last played priest but I remember they have circle of healing, holy word sanctify and prayer of healing so is it a problem with the healing numbers for the spells or is it because spells became talents and they aren't taken in favour of a stronger single target heal build?
Holy priest still has those talents, but you don't even take them in a raiding environment anymore because they do essentially nothing while being a huge mana suck. It was better in DF, but with the stamina buffs in TWW they hardly move bars and it's a waste of a GCD. It's even worse in a 5-man environment. We pretty much always take the single target build because it's so much stronger. I've heard of people who do play CoH/PoH builds in M+ but by and large it's not recommended. Sanctify still gets used regularly but it only works when the group is stacked, so it's less useful if you're running with ranged DPS.
@@Dillisan You should be able to check on your alt. In the quest log you have The War Within chapters at the top of the list. If you have any chapters the campaign isn't complete on your alt. If you DONT have any chapters you have completed the campaign. I just checked on my main and an alt.
Cool content and finally some priest gameplay. Welcome in hell fellow priest. Holy isn’t bad when it comes to throughput but as you saw you struggle in aoe . You could switch to archon to have the halo burst aoe every minute. Sadly we don’t have any utility beside the two minute md. Please give us a kick atleast Try disc it’s really funny
The output is fine, by no means did I mean it was bad (which some seem to think I did!). Oh yeah, yikes, please give us a kick lol. A few have mentioned Archon, I'm looking into it but I may just stick to what I'm using and make life harder for myself, who knows!
Hi! I’d recommend dropping the ElvUI party frames and switching to Cell. A friend suggested the addon to me, and at first, I didn’t want to replace ElvUI and Click-I’d gotten used to it over time and had everything nicely set up. But Cell actually has everything built-in, and even better. Click, mouseover support, debuffs, options for showing all buffs, healing indicators, etc. It’s the best addon for healers. I'm not a high M+ player, but I’m currently pushing most 13+ keys, so I think this advice is worth considering. Let me know how it goes, and good luck with your holy priest!
13's are very respectable and your input is valued. I would pushing that sort of level but no longer play with the team. I don't like playing around with my UI too much and many download mine, so I won't be changing it (at least not this season). I've used a combination of mouseover macros and Clique for years and it works for me. Thanks for the comment!
to be fair you did choose the hardest dps in enhance. and Holy Priest is not bad, none of the healers are. and they had a bunch of tools to deal with things. You should also look into Macroing your oracles to a bunch of spells to not lose out on them. I can help with them if you need
Which one are you referring to? Check the UI Video, might help: ua-cam.com/video/-vCcw7tuV54/v-deo.htmlsi=nn7lEV2hM3CAfvls If not send a message in the UI channel on the Discord with a screenshot of what you're after and I'll assist there :)
Three days?! Right at the beginning of the season? I got KSM week 1, took a further 2 weeks to get all my portals, but then I wasn't doing many keys :(. I have been tempted by Resto, I need to see how it is compared to Holy :D
@Dillisan Noo, not at the beginning of the season, haha, I did it last week 😂 I'd love to give you some tips on holy priest but I haven't played it since shadowlands, but good luck I love your videos!
80 percent of RETs i see only drool on dps buttons, never use utility and when asked about it they cry. the ones that play it 100 percent are group savers
It does, just not with the recommended build for M+. Weaving is much preferred, I would lose so much more if I went for AoE healing, it's not a nice trade-off.
For you maybe, not for many others. Different skill levels, experience, time allocated, disabilities. Throwing around the word "easy" is something I try to avoid using, cause it's really not.
Have you considered that not everyone's very good at the game? Or have the time to play and improve? KSM is very hard for some players, and it's a massive step-up from previous seasons. Gear isn't enough to get you KSM.
in siege btw shaman didnt do a dilly by running into the bomb, it went off.. if shaman would have ran through it only he would have taken the dmg... you want to do that if the boss isn't ran through them otherwise they will wipe the group.
Yup, this^
yeah the shaman actually tried to safe the group
exactly, in fact the shaman was the only one in the group smart enough to know what to do, sadly just realizing it too late or assuming the the rest in his group knew the mechanic and knew to soak it now that they were standing closer to it.

You are completely correct, my mistake! The Shaman was a champ for trying, I'm just a goof.

Great video as always dillisan great to see you back in action makeing videos again 😊
For healing blood dk, you need to track their runic power. If they are at full bar you can chill. You only need to panic when they have no power.
This is very true and something I forgot to setup! (I will forget next week too >.>)
Hyped to finally see a Dilli Zero to Hero this expac!
My dream of seeing you play shadow continues, but for now this one looks super fun, can't wait to see how it goes! Great video. KSM is really tough this season compared to previous ones.
Keep dreaming! It certainly is, and you basically need most portals to get KSH, it's pretty nuts.
Always down for some priest gameplay. Good to have you back on the KSM grind!
Good to be back!

I will make you proud!
Let Flyyyyyy! Never too soon xD Hahaha awesome video, keep them up ! ❤
As a heads up you can start a follower dungeon, a mag will cast a table for food so you don't have to food food to gain mana
I learnt this before I started, and completely forgot about it...thanks!
Very poggers, nice and relaxing too.
Bruh as someone who mained holy priest season one I feel the burns from the reviews. Made it to KSM thought but it was tough and toxic as shit.
It's a big step up from previous seasons, and the toxicity seems to increase because of it. Let's hope I run into some of that, it'll make the video more entertaining for you guys, even if I suffer! :D

Glad you enjoyed! It's addon called WarpDeplete
Hey so as a spriest for the bloods and the orbs for the affix you can use psychic scream to deal with that root. Under the priest side of the talents there is a choice that removes snares which I thought would work on city of threads last boss but I'm not sure if it's bugged or what the deal is with that. Also questionably epic is a good website to see check what trinkets are in what order of being the best at least that's what I use for my healers and it has a Sim tool as well
I also thought that there is a talent for root removal for Fade, but it turns out that it removes all snares, not roots, so any slows.
nice vid Dillisan, can you list your pc spetup and graphic settings? it looks so clean and smooth
Um, that's not something I have available, but I can show on stream if you stop by. I'll note this down and make some screenshots at some point when I have time!

@Dillisan there's a bit of awkward setup with the macro required for it so if you have any issues it's 99% that - basically just gives you a glowing notif on your screen when the person you've assigned as your PI Buddy hits a cooldown.

If you actually did the campaign on your priest, you can get the runed crest from the RP raid kill of last boss
Would take quite some time though sadly, unless I skipped it and I should be treating this like my only character. I dunno, maybe. Good shout though!

Sticking to +2 keys is not going to give you a hero track item in the vault, you need a +3 for that.

"easy" is very subjective. There are many different skill levels amongst players, what's considered easy for you, can be really hard for others.
Ok but do it without addons
Season 2 perhaps?
