i've heard shadow is actually pretty amazing, escpecially if you have someone else handling the heals (as a priest most expect off healing lol)

That would be true if it didn't take as long as it does to build up the shadow orbs that make it possible for 900 MB crits. But Disc has quicker damage since they also have Penance to their advantage.
Edit- I shouldn't have said overall damage in first post. =X

You need a 3 stack of orbs for that, As eclipse of Druids only diff is eclipse lasts longer and with lunar eclipse moon fire spam is awesome
100 crits every global combined with dots criting for 100+
Point of this post is don't bag out moonfire spam

i agree with two above posts! Disc does alot of damage, however, as discipline, you will face two MAJOR issues.
first, people will ram a giant spear of trollin' up your ass if you refuse to healbot them 24/7, all damage dealt will have to go down when people are not dying......
second, you won't enjoy it as much.

every class should support their team mates.
On a single target it is disc. I've measured up to about 50k damage on dummies and disc comes up tops. It wins on burst too. If you ask nicely I'll dig out the screen shots.
Edit: IIRC haste gives a higher gain per point than crit.

Disc does higher damage, I still prefer shadow when I play offensive priest though. On shpriest I use haste belt and cloak, rest stack crit and int/sp (eg http://www.wowhead.c...rators-slippers / http://www.wowhead.com/item=53428 over http://www.wowhead.com/item=4320 for most sets). On gloves I use +20 shp, +10 haste/ +16 sp is debatable I think.
As an answer to your question without making this thread to long; the link to my priest is in armory library thread first page under shadow priest (boa shoulders and staff possibly not equipped).

i have a full crit set (=27% crit chance) and a haste set as well. although imo crit does put out more healing, I have fallen in love with haste because of those annoying rogues (haste makes fake-casting a lot easier). it also allows you to pump out heals like crazy wen u need them, instead of having to rely on rng crit. in addition to the basic bis priest gear, instead put 10 haste on your gloves, get the 5 haste sorcerer belt, and the boa helm / cloak. when you combine the crit from boa gear, and if u use the 2/2/2 crit wand, and the 3 crit Stillwater's Signet, you still have a decent amt of crit anyway. go haste!

Shadow does insane damage and is better than Disc IMO against 1v1 though I love shadow and only spec Disc for Penance which deals decent damage but nothing compared to the big Mind Blast crits and is much more OP against melee due to the Mind Flay. The extra survivability from Disc makes it overall better and allows you to dish out higher damage whilst being attacked.
