Priests in general seem pretty underwhelming. You look at the flashy things some classes are getting, then take a look at Holy Priests... I mean did we really need a THIRD talent to increase healing of some spells by 10%? Especially since the second one (Empowered Healing) was nerfed to always be weaker then the first one (Spiritual Healing). Yet another one for a different set of spells just smells like "we needed a talent to fill this spot but had absolutely no ideas."

The way it looks right now I expect that I'll be healing pretty much exactly the same way at 80 as I am right now, except without down ranking.

So, how about it WI? Has anything really changed for Holy Priest healing?

Serendipity changes things up a bit when it's working. Managing the Holy Concentration buff is interesting. Figuring when to use Guardian Spirit should be challenging. Lightwell is now possibly useful.

We got a few new tools but overall they seemed to be happy with where we were so haven't messed with us to much. If the point of the expansion is the fix the class specs that are messed up, they are succeeding, but if the point is to make it more interesting for every class/spec, then they are failing a bit for holy priests.

(I believe the Empowered Healing thing is a bug.)
