Now I throw penance in BANG BANG BANG i attsck youwith balls of light — not sure whats th effective thig for disc yet sill fiddling.

But yeah I tend to use swd early and as often as i can. Msybe i’m spoilt by playing my spriest as well…

As a current holy priest @ 70, I think a switch might be in the cards for me, if nothing else just to keep me amused. One question I have -- for any Disc priests that are usually out soloing (I know, I know...) or doing 5-mans, what is your typical damage face-melting rotation?? Is it different from the usual Holy build of HF, smite, smite, smite, SW:D/wand-to-death? Thanks! Keep up the great work! --Jas Very interesting comments all, thanks…

Interesting. Sadly, I've yet to see Discipline in action since my two favorite priests are Shadow / Holy. So Discipline gears exactly like a Holy Paladin?

Yay for me, looks like I won't be needing two full sets of gear when dualspecs come out, just some better itemized stuff without +hit :) So, looks like disc priests gear using the same principles as shadows.

I took the PoH glyph too, cuz I figured if I'm using PoH, there's party damage going on, and that little HoT at the end will give me that much more of a break while I keep the tank alive. That being said, I'm actually interested in the Nova debate, and I plan on checking that out. I also replaced a lot of my equips with the the Frostsavage set (crafted, since I haven't gotten into much endgame yet) which gives up spirit for stam/int/crit/sp. I lost a good bit of regen, but my crit jumped about 4% or so, which is nice considering all the crit-based procs we have. As for rage, I haven't had anyone complain about that in a long while. I don't ever see warrior tanks having rage problems while I'm shielding them. _Misa First of all, hurray Vonya for switching :)

That meta is 3% crit heal bonus, not 3% crit. IE it makes your crits bigger, not more frequent. I may have to try this Disc thing. I'm not sure it's me, but it sounds different enough to be interesting. The druid shawoohoo is called Wild Growth or WG. It's like a CoH over 6 seconds, about the same amount. I was most unimpressed at first but it's kinda nice against small constant damage. It's amazing at Sapphiron, I can get WG spread over 15+ people ticking gently whereas CoH would just massively overheal 5. I made 50% more healing done than any other healer at Saph last night.
