Skip pally if you want to heal as there's no 409 weapon for a 80 holy pally. Ret/prot is gg. Priest, both healing and shadow are top notch, shadow is ballin' tbh. Both a mage and rogue can push out some ridiculous burst.
In my experience, it's a casters world (of warcraft). Chances are you're dead meat before you catch up to the mage/shadowpriest as a melee, so there's my vote. Rogues got stealth, cloak, sprint and shadowstep so i suppose they're the stronger melee alternative if you really want to be melee.
Tbh go shadowpriest. You'll still be a scumbag but at least a little bit less than mage. =)

I think rogues are the most badass and prob going to rule the bracket this 5.2 patch - buffed + x2 dancing steel is like insta death - I've been doing 2's with a priest/shaman it flip flops, anyway we normally end up killing the rogues partner but after that it's all down hill - that sap and open who ever doesn't have the hots/bubble on them is pretty much screwed.

windsong mastery for evisc >>>>>> dancing steel. Or ofc get both and zerg the universe in a garrote.

Wellllllllllllllllllllllll.... judging since dancing steel has no cd's it can proc almost 100% of the time which them = to about 3200 agil - even with my character having over 70% res and about 50k +, I CANT LIVE.. I don't know that the mastery is greater here, also due to there's a chance that mastery proc will even go off......

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH and spriest uh ... uh.. nope disc is far superior imo, I mean my disc partner alone pulls about 100k per arena and he just uses penance and holy fire it's crazy.. and all he has to do is bubble me and go hammer on the opposing team.. plus in 5.2 bubbles are getting a 40% increase, he already has a 70k bubble...

Can spam purge them shields off, so dont see the great thing with Disc priests...

Inner focus anyone? We already know that shamans are the best arena healer in basically all twink brackets (save maybe holy paladins at 70).

Would you waste your time purging shields when you SHOULD be healing about 20k per second dots by a aff warlock and a constant penance damage from a disc priest - let's see how long you live.

At lvl 80 I don't see them being best anymore.. I think priests have the upper hand in this bracket - In arena's that is - in bg's I'd bring a shaman with me over a priest any day - I actually have 2 resto's for rbg team right now.

Thing is, pure healers hardly matter given how much burst some classes can do. If I was playing arena at 80, I'd be playing ret.
But shaman mastery levels basically mean a riptide -> full health, so you have to force trinket/grounding THEN CC them to get the kill. All the while their partner is doing lolburst that 1shots people.

Have tested against affli warlock and a riptide and a totem works fine
