Whats the priest race you would recommend for me?I will prolly sit D mostly as holypriest even tho im open for Disc O. Ally side, Pondering between gnome, human n nightelf.
 
Out of those three, human or gnome. If you go human you can get 2 trinks because of the racial, but if you are a gnome you can have the pvp trinket and your racial and they dont share a cd.
 
worgen is best till MOP and dics-spec...then panda spec'd holy

sprint
shadow resist
nature resist

samhain rules
 
Human
 
As long as pvp trinkets below 70 are on 5 min CDs, then Humans will be the best racial for pvp. Double AGM and a 2 minute pvp trinket just puts them over the top. However, that doesn't mean that other races can't compete. A lot of it comes down to the environment and other classes present, and the faction you're on.

Pretty much, every race has strengths and weaknesses as a priest, it's just easier to quantify the benefits of a 2 min pvp trinket and an extra AgM.
 
Gnome. Unless you prefer sitting through snares and giving up 6 resilience for Human. You said you wanna follow the FC? Hope you don't get slowed ;)

This is valid until Panda comes out and you can have 15 extra stamina AND a new ranged CC... So just go with your gut for now. You'll prolly change it later anyway.
 
just because a player is human doesn't mean they have to be a two AGM-ho

agree on panda, 2X food buff and a put you to sleep for 3 sec racial.

The CC requires you to be in melee range and it is still questionable if Epicurean will affect rum at all.
 
Gnome is very viable, if not better than human. why? Portable Bronze Mortar - Item - World of Warcraft this is why. item is instant cast, has a relatively short cd, and is absolutely astonishingly gamebreaking, there is absolutely no other word for it.. i know me and Hurrx have had long discussions about this, and i will with my dying breath be shouting "GNOME" at him..

maybe for a mage but as a priest we are generally dealing with mage and hunter burst and to get a mortar off u would have to be in an awful position, the 2 min trinket is just to good for a healer when 1 cc can wipe your team atm.

1 good CC can wipe your defenses - so pillar hump/range more :p If I fear you once on my warlock then I can certainly spam and do it again. Even a 2 minute CD on the racial trinket won't save you from that. On the flip side, Escape Artist will save you from a lot a lot a lot of slows and snares. If you like sitting in those then that's totally fine - I believe that the ability to keep moving forward while everyone else gets rooted is what sets apart the races, not even mentioning 5% extra mana for gnomes, 19 Arcane resist, being small AND apparently Portable Bronze Mortars are instant cast??? The regular interrupt bombs take a long cast...... If they really are instant cast then there is absolutely no argument to be made against gnomes being the best priest class.

wow.

u can spam fear again, but you can spam a slow as well. thus making escape artist useless considering slows dont have a dr, unlike fear/poly etc

5 min cd on trinket is just too long, if u played human and then switched to gnome u will notice the extreme difference and how worthless gnomes r if u compare

like augiddin said, bombs rnt rly that good 4 priests. maybe against a huge group of rogs who have shs/sprint on cd or w/e

wait why am i trying to tell u this lmao ur that stubborn guy who posts shit about gnomes being best in every thread... u wont change opinion and no1 who plays human will either
