Do you use inner will or inner fire?

[DJZeroAnjel]

Thanks so much was hoping you were gonna do a disc video!

[Vantucci]

Are you going to do another as non-atonement eventually?

[TehRenting]

I've been waiting for this one. I main a priest, currently working on heroic firelands.

I'm all the way into mastery... screw haste. My role is being the damage mitigator for the tanks. We usually 2heal Ragnaros disc priest + resto druid. And stacking mastery really helps way more than haste. Haste is better for doing heroic dungeons with just you as healer though. But in raids, you want to be a mastery master

I also don't play this spec, because it's inefficient in raids.

int > spi > mastery!

[n00beta]

@TehRenting Mastery is a good stat, but not one I would ever recommend stacking unless your job is PoH spamming. Haste gives WAY more throughput in every scenario except I believe raid shield spamming, but nobody does that anyway. Large shields for preventative absorption can definitely come in handy though, especially in 25m where one healer's throughput overall is less important.

Atonement, btw, is incredibly efficient for healing, not to mention it adds significantly to raid dps.

[TehRenting]

@n00beta Personally, I don't think haste is very important when not using attonement spec. Mainly because you get a haste buff from PW:S. A lot of other spells are just fillers or instant casts. I only cast flash heal when I don't have time to cast greater heal or when my instant spells and rapture are on cooldown.

I consider my PW:S to be a big 40k instant heal which costs a lot of mana unless you wait for the 12 second rapture cooldown (which makes it GIVE more mana than it takes)

[n00beta]

@TehRenting Well the thing is, mastery is only GUARANTEED to do anything when you shield or when you crit, and since generally depending on crits is a bad idea for a healer, I favor haste's ability to get any given heal off a split second sooner. Not to mention when it comes to numbers, haste is straight up the best throughput stat in every realistic scenario.

For me specifically, I dont even take the haste after PW:S talent because its too situational for my tastes.

[TehRenting]

@n00beta As a discipline priest you're in charge of damage absorbtion and mitigation, borrowed time increases your penance by quite a bit of speed. Not taking Borrowed Time is just silly and I can't imagine playing without it. Shield (35k absorb), fast Penance (30k healing) that's a 65k health sink (if nothing crits) in 2seconds... Not many classes can do that.

[n00beta]

@TehRenting if your job is only to stop damage on low health tanks, then yes you're absolutely right both mastery stacking and borrowed time are ideal. In 25m where you can assign different healers to different roles, that will work. In 10m I have to do a little bit of everything, and I simply prefer never to let anyone get that low. Also, flash heal is very similar HP/S to penance.

[n00beta]

@TehRenting Also, pally healers can output that same amount of healing burst easily, discipline's preventative mitigation is best used as a buffer before incoming attacks rather than a save for a dying tank.

[n00beta]

@n00beta Oh and shamans, they can too.

[Pys3n]

think you need to mute the game sound, the ppl dpsing are a pain.
