Disc HealingFollow

When speced right, Disc healing can be killer single target healing. You are sort of doing things right. As a disc healer you put PW: Shield on the tank along with renew and then if the bubble pops before weakened soul is up or a dps is taken damage then you throw flash heals to them, atleast until you learn Pray of Mending then throw that in with your bubble and renew. There is no reason that your bubble should stop the warrior from getting rage, since they get it from just attacking. And I do not play a pally much but I am pretty sure there mana regen attack goes for when you cause damage not take damage.

I do thank both of you guys so very much it means I'm not worthless =D. But on the note of Pally with Blessing of Sanctuary it happens when he dodges,parrys or blocks attacks, when he absorbs he doesn't get the mana regan. But thnak you guys so much do you guys possible know a site were I can see a couple Disc builds?

Are you sure because if all he is doing is absorbing wont that effect his dodge rate?

Disc healing is great. If you like the style, stay with it.

Paladin is the only class that gets any decrease in mana generation due to your shield. As already stated, many feel it is not an issue even for them. Personally, I simply make myself aware of when my tank is a Paladin, and I'll keep an eye on his mana. I may choose not to shield him if I feel he is running low.

I was holy from level 10-75, but switched to disc and really enjoy it.
Good luck.

Check out the quote in Dadanox's sig. Nothing more needs to be said about shield. As Disc, you will most likely start most fights with PoM, then once the PoM bounces, shield, then every once in a while, between pulling Oreos apart and eating the middle, glance at the tank's health, throw out a Penance, and then a new shield.

Okay it's a little more complicated than that, but the main thing to remember about a Disc priest is that your whole spec is designed around mitigating damage. Shield is your star player. It should be in every single scene.

I leveled a Disc priest with my husband's warrior (100% duo, never played alone) and it was just awesome in every way. The classes complement each other extremely well. It's like old school D&D. Have fun.

I recently dusted off my lvl 70 priest. He was leveled to 70 as shadow, and has been dormant for ages now. I picked up dual spec and made him shadow/disc. I was going easy on the PW:S on warriors and druids, but can see now that I should've visited the priestforums sooner. This will make my disc-healing easier.

Seems like everyone but pallies have the "slap on an earth shield and go get some coffe" option. (Or maybe they do too?)

I don't think he was talking paladin tanks.

More like- Priests can Shield/Renew/ProM, Shamans can Earth Shield/Riptide, Druids have like 5 Renews to put on the tank (or something like that), what do Paladins have? Apart from stuff that has an insanely long cooldown, that is.

That's pretty much what I was going to say before I decided I couldn't be ****** you just put it better =P

Let me add the fact that they can keep the entire party alive with beacon and holy light.

Then again, you'll find this gap is closed a lot once you enter raids. Unless you vastly outgear content (lolXT-002) its not like you can shield everybody and sit back for 30 seconds. The 'shielding everyone' is more of a thing you do when you don't have to cast party or flash heals. You do usually notice AOEs hitting for a bit less when shields are up, but its far from enough to 'relief all the stress' in most fights.

Aside from the Lich King, that is. There, we are blatantly overpowered. And I love it :D

At level 80 with decent gear, a disc priest should rarely have any mana issues. It's a very good spec for not going oom.
