Priests are pretty damn cool. I've been having a lot of fun with my shadow priest (she's only up to 28 or so) but I've thought about going Disc. They've got so many cool utility spells.

One thing I've got to complain about is some of their talents. First, I don't like that they got Vampiric Touch. I always thought that'd be a great spell for Elemental Shamans to have, and would help them with their mana issues and getting into groups. But it's too late now. We got a pittance instead.

The shadow tree seems perfect. I don't see a whole lot of direction in the Disc tree, but there's a ton of utility there. Holy needs a bit of work, of course. I don't really see how Blizzard could think that Lightwell and Circle of Healing are acceptable as 31 and 41-point talents, but I feel the same way about Totem of Wrath. I just don't understand why Blizzard can't just come up with something new when the community universally says that something sucks, like they did with Shadow Mending. Makes me think they're getting lazy, I'm sorry to say.
