Holy Priest 19?

My one twink was a BE priest for healing. I cannot bring up his armory because he is no longer listed in it. But I was a mix of Holy and Disc. I will try my best to get as close to what my build was ...



Main Healing Build (5/5/0)



I just spammed Renew with this spec and ran around giving PW:F/S to people. At one point I think you could get Imp PW:S, but I don't think you can now at 19. Imp PW:F is a waste of 2 points. 30% may sound like a lot, but your only giving them 8 Stam.



Annoying Healing Build (5/5/0)



Almost the same as the above, except I would spam SW:p (rank 1) to try and proc the stun. As a BE priest I also would keep Touch of Weakness (Which, sadly, seems to be removed from WoW) on me at all times. If a Rogue tried to hit me, 10% chance they would be stunned while also losing AP and causing a bit of damage.





I haven't played since TBC, so I am sure there are better builds out there to try. But I loved healing in BG, it was more fun then DPS IMHO.

I ran around with a mates non-twinked Holy Priest at one point in time, though it was 20-29 bracket. Had an absolute ball. I'm not so much a heals player at the moment, but it was a nice change.

That's probably why, but I strongly disagree. At 19, Disc or Shadow aren't very viable at all. I suppose you could argue that 5/5/0 is an option, but 0/10/0 is the universally accepted 19 priest spec. WotLK took out downranking so spamming R1 PWS for Blackout procs goes out the window
 
I'd go into Blackout if I were BE.



That's about it, or maybe if I were in competitive 5v5s.



0/10/0 is best for every situation, where Blackout only has a chance and sometimes will never work, and the imp SP can be dispelled. Maybe not all the time, but like Blackout, it's not always going to be there when you need it, but .5 seconds of your Heal (or lolSmite but don't knock it, it wins games sometimes), is going to always be there for you.



If 0/10/0 is your way of spec, and you for some reason go for Blackout or imp SP, you'll notice it, and you'll always need it when you don't have it.



For instance; OMG WE RAN INTO A PREMADE WITH THIS PUG AND OH SNAP IT'S GONNA TAKE ME 3 WHOLE SECONDS TO HEAL YOU AND OH SNAP THE ROGUES KICK YOU CAST AT 2.8 SECONDS AND YOU'RE LIKE OMG I WISH I WAS 0/10/0.

personally i swear by 0/10/0 or as juicie said "2/2 healing focus, 3/3 imp renew, 5/5 divine fury, but if ur looking for a more instant cast based spec for like pugging and stuff...or for going O in premades...heres two good ones:

i think that may be posted above, but thats a pretty general one if u like to pug

ive also seen ppl go the second one (below this)...the only problem with it is that u have to be crit or else u will have a 4 second heal cast with someone on u



http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=bV0MZc



keep in mind...with the 0/10/0 holy spec, the max time your heal can take is 2.8 seconds...with the first 5/5/0, its max becomes 3.3 and with the final one, it can take up to 4...granted that it will take only 3 if u have a twink on u (since you'll be crit ofter)



imo that extra .5 seconds per heal is so crucial to keeping ppl alive under pressure and getting heals off that u cant afford to give it up for 5% more on instant casts...thats almost un-noticable compared to .5 off ur heal
