Build Explanation

Priest Changes and Impressions

Compared to CBT1, Priests received substantial nerfs across skills and talents – no buffs were given (see the table of changes for specifics). However, it seems tanks have gained increased survivability. Mythic dungeons through Heroic 3 are manageable for healing, even with limited experience. Raids will likely prove more challenging. Priests seem to have higher mana consumption compared to other healing classes, so mindful resource management is crucial.

Distance is a Priest's strength (shared with other healers), allowing for optimal positioning during encounters. Their relative fragility is a drawback, especially in PvP. It's nearly impossible to survive in the Arena without significant team support. The hero remains strong in AoE healing and protecting tanks from heavy hits (though with a cooldown limitation). Regular dungeons and raids will mostly rely on your core healing spells (3-4) for consistent group support.

Elite raids necessitate a build shift: spam your first spell on the main tank, then utilize raid heals as needed (4, 5, and 6). Your sixth spell excels during boss transition phases. Several talents synergize well, granting heals when taking damage (static from attack). The Oracle branch offers instant-cast benefits and reduces incoming damage for the target. You can even provide some AoE damage reduction to the party for short periods thanks to armor-increasing talents.

Gameplay Specifics

Sadly, pure healing builds have been rendered less effective for PvP. Battlegrounds offer some room to maneuver, but Arenas make you a prime target for enemy DPS.

Rotation

Main AoE heal after 3-4, 1 main on the weak of the world in total, 5 always flies to the tank with mechanics boss, 6 hold for critical cases of team sucking, or until AOE mechanics in which everything is ranked
