Weapon question for a 16 priest

[shanker]

first off, hit on healers is overated. i watched a paladin think his name was boda from guild "chosen few" put out 85000+ in healing one game....had zero hit, had items with crit wherever possible.

i have clowned around with a level-15 priest, my renews/bubbles/heals/penance have never missed on a friendly player. i used 3 resilience BOAs (staff/trinket/shoulder) and not even close to hit capped. but able to survive rather well and my renews/bubbles/heals/penance do not miss on me.

as a 15-16 priest any heal spec is not gonna play offensive

if you are worried about hit...roll horde. they have a set of blue boots with +4 hit, a wand with +2 hit add that to the ring from dead mines and the PVP BOA staff you should do well hit wise, even better if you have the BOA ring too

Did I miss something, or are heals able to miss these days?

The main reason for hit-cap is to land all HoJs, Fears and Chasitys.

never had a issue on my 15 with fears.....only races with shadow resist racial sometimes "resist"

on my 15 preist i stay back and renew/bubble/penance/heal friendly players and myself......offensive is occasional SWP

i have items for hit....BOA staff, blue quest boots, wand, BOA ring, DM ring....basiclly use the BOA staff more for the res, blue boots with crit, wand with with hit and BOA ring, the other ring i wear is the 3 stam 2 crit ring, or a 2 int/2stam ring (both are horde only)

imo...higher heals and survival are more of a issue for a 15-16 healer than worrying about hit

As of now, 99% rolls with 5+ resist on cloak, so all classes should be able to resist your fear.

imo no need to just get a few hit points, either cap hit fully or get no hit at all.

fully agree on this

but you wrote in your earlier post that heals were able to miss, and they're not hence no reason getting hit for capping heals.

i never said in any post that heals were able to miss....infact exactly opposite

my post above:

as for having a few hit points, those come by accident as a level 15 priest thru item selection priority for survival and crit blend. so a player will have some hit in doing so

- BOA PVP staff wearing it for the resilience, happens to have +hit
- BOA ring due to stam/crit happens to have +hit
- wand (horde only) happens to have +hit over the DM quest one

other stuff was obtained while building the player but aren't used....but have if needed
- blue boots with +4 hit (horde only)
- DM ring with +3 hit

to build a 15-16 priest in making a point to have no hit would mean using items that would counter the point of making a 15-16 priest
