SoD Full Priest Healing Guide!

what's up guys Sir Christopher here with another guide today we're going to be going over uh the holy spec for priest my talents my runes uh consumes add-ons everything like that after my last uh guide video I got a lot of people asking me about that so we're just going to make a little guide about what everything I got going on here uh if you guys wanted to copy it or just you know get keep a get you a little informed about what to do and uh before we get into it though I do want to thank you guys for all the support on my channel in the last couple videos I mean I I it's awesome and if you guys really do like this stuff please like And subscribe because I am going to keep doing it so let's just get into it though first things first we're going to uh mention the current current gear so um just going to take a look at the gear real quick that I got going on right now uh my gear score is sitting at about 312 which is pretty good it could be better if I was getting more lucky with with uh raid gear but I'm not that's ra gear ra gear I got my Sergeant's cloak robes um I still got a green green bracers uh the dagger the Willing sacrifice is pretty good I mixed it with the Ora mistmantle Orban mistmantle is actually bought on the auction house it's a pretty good uh held in off hand I got that uh from the quest this I got from PvP as well that I did get from raid the sealing worm so that's the gear right now currently we're sitting at about 312 gear score and uh 29 item level uh honestly I've lost I've gotten very very unlucky in my bfds I've lost everything I think I've seen the uh staff drop two times I've lost it both I've seen the ravs the robes drop a couple times I've lost it and multiple others but we're not going to get into that so pretty unlucky um but the next we're going to talk talk about uh the runes so I'm still missing two but the other two are just uh Shadow runes or you know Shadow priest runes I'm not too worried about it but what I like to rock on my chest and this is mainly for Holy um I like to rock uh Serendipity as you can see it um uh it'll increase your uh solo healing by immensely it'll also give you it'll stack and it'll make your uh casting abilities like your low heels cast quicker and the more Stacks you have the quicker it casts and Etc it also gives you a speed bonus it's very helpful uh my legs I like to go with h prayer of mending just because I am a holy priest and also prayer of mending is amazing has a big description but the best way I like to describe prayer of mending is uh you put it on a tank or put it on someone who's getting attacked and if when they get attacked that per mending procs and then it heals them and that pray mending will jump to another person and heal them if they get attacked so it keeps jumping it's really good for AOE damage uh good for tanks and honestly the the Mana cost is really low for prayer of mending and we'll get into that with the part of the rotation and stuff like that as we go on with this video but that's what I like to rock on my legs and hands hands this is the controversial one because a lot of people like tenants me personally I like circle of healing and I will get into why I do like circle of healing a lot more than Penance Penance is really good for single Target but circle of healing can can save raids if you if you know what you're doing with circle of healing it can save raids so uh that that's my runes right now um let's go to talents show you guys what I got in my talents I have one an improved renew um and when we go to when I start talking about rotation and stuff like that we'll definitely uh I'll be you know talking about some of the talents as well but this is mainly what I'm doing for my talents right now and this is for phase one this could all change for phase two what you know whatever whatever you know happens as it keeps going to new phases so this is what I got for now I got one in improved renew I got five in the Holy specialization and remember this this build well this build is more of a single Target um healing build build but I like to add circle of healing and prayer mending for my AOE spells so but the critical effect chance affects your AOE spells too so don't worry too much about you know uh don't worry too much about only Soul like single Target healing you definitely want to uh throw AOE heals out with this build uh Divine Fury reduce the casting time of your holy uh of your Smite Holy Fire and heal and greater heal spells that's pretty simple holy Nova honestly I just put it there um you rarely use holy Nova I mean I think the thing costs way too much Mana I mean 185 Mana for I mean prayer mending 74 if you're out there spamming holy novas good luck to you um but I just get I get one in it for you know reasons inspiration inspiration is going to be your biggest talent that other than the one with crit this one uh your holy specialization and I'm sure this it'll change but right now inspiration is going to be one of your best talents to get in as you can see um when you get have three out of three in Inspiration when you heal a Target and it crits when you heal a Target and it crits it will give them uh it'll increase their armor the target's armor that you just crit healed by 25% and I'm telling you it's massive like the amount of times I've got a crit heal off and then I'll see how much damage they're doing to the tank it's way less when that buff is on them and then uh at the bottom I just got one in improved healing that's just uh you know your healing spells and stuff like that talents are pretty simple I mean this is uh I just got 16 straight into to Holy this is pretty simple but like I said when it comes to rotation I'll explain a little bit more about inspiration here cuz that's your big one in this right now in your talent tree inspiration is going to be your big one this is a very important talent to have as a holy priest so we're going to exit out of that so next we're going to talk about uh the rotation and I got my lovely wife here who is AFK um I'm going to show you guys a little bit about the rotation when you're uh if like imagine this person is a tank they're tanking and uh I'll get into the UI what I got set up we will get into that but first I just want to show you about you know how I do rotation if this person was tanking so um you know the runes come in really really heavily here so if this let's say this person was getting uh tank or was tanking and there was one person on them what you want to start out doing is just hitting them with lesser heels you're just going to hit them with lesser heels you don't want to overheal off the right off the rip because you want to save a lot of your Mana in case you need to use a circle of healing that is going to be your like oh button you need an oh button circle of healing is going to be your oh button so just start off right when they pull start off maybe casting a lesser heel right you know you're just getting oh I'm casting myself you know start off with a lesser heal just get them a little healed like that and then uh once they start taking damage damage that's when you're going to start using your flash heels and every time look you get every time you heal with a lesser heal or a flash heal you get Serendipity procs you have a chance to get a Serendipity proc and look I get a little speed bonus and it uh it makes the next uh heal of Prayer of Healing or whatever is reduced by 20% so it's very important to have uh to notice whenever your procs are going off as well um so yeah they're getting attacked you know maybe it starts to getting more intense your flash healing your lesser healing and uh let's say that boss does a massive like cleave attack that does hits everybody hits the tank hits everybody well the reason you're starting off with a lesser heal or a a flash heel is because whenever that whenever the big damage comes out that's when you want to click and your oh button circle of healing that will heal right here it says group one if there there's going to be five people in group one when you click that Circle of healing it will heal everybody in that group only in a party group though not the raid just the group so if everyone in that group gets smacked then you press your circle of healing and it will heal everyone and it's a big heal the circle of healing heals 26 2 to to 300 uh you know health and we don't have a whole lot of Health right now so circle of healing is huge it's man it's really Mana costly though you got to be careful with that so one of the best things about um circle of healing though um is it has a chance of also critting so on everyone so that will proc in turn that will proc an inspiration on somebody if they get hit with that uh crit heal from circle of healing so that's a big one to have so whenever you press your o button of Circle of healing there's a chance you're also putting a 25% armor buff on them that's huge right now and it's everybody in the party no everybody doesn't get the but you know if you get hit with the crit it's everybody in it's the person that gets hit with the crit that gets the buff but everybody in the party gets healed for your own button and so so okay let's let's uh rewind a little bit you know we're doing lesser heels we're getting Serendipity procs we're doing flash heels you hit your o button you notice the but you notice maybe you're getting low on heal or man right you're getting low on Mana that's when you want to start throwing out your prayer of mendings and and even if this doesn't bounce that much and it may not maybe it's just single Target damage it's still it's still a really good heal for when they get attacked it's a good heal for them to have so when you're running low on Mana prayer amending is really good to use to uh to sustain your Mana so that's probably when I'll start hitting uh a lot of lesser heels a lot of prayer amending and I'll be honest guys this build you're not going to use any of your power W Shields you're NE you're almost never going to use your shield and honestly uh I mean this is a holy build but your your Shield right now is very unless you are a discipline fre it's very ineffective uh and also your renew your renew is 105 Mana and that's not a lot of I mean it's it's a 183 damage o heals for 183 over 15 seconds that's not that big so like your prayer of mending doeses 150 right when they get attacked and it's only 74 Mana so think of it this way if you're throwing out renew you're going to be spending way more Mana than throwing out prayer mendings so whenever you're starting to get low on Mana lesser heels prayer and mendings lesser heals and pray Mings are going to be huge but you want to keep your flash heels as well and then your circle of healing I'll be honest guys that's going to be and then your big heel you always have your big heel your big heel is best to use whenever uh whenever the tank is super low and you have stacks of serendipity if you have like two to three stacks of serendipity and you use your big heel it's going to it's going to it's going to proc as fast as a flash a regular flash heel because those Serendipity stacks makes the cast time reduced so a big heel can be cast way quicker when you have more of those Serendipity procs so be aware of that so but that's going to be your rotation start off really slow with lesser heels then into like some flash heels you maybe throw a pray of mending you know oh look you see that it proed right there whenever you see that little uh Shield that means it proed I just crit healer so start off slow you know don't use your power Ward Shields don't use a renew he I'm telling you rarely use those spells as a holy holy priest um you know star off slow lesser heals flash heels uh oh button is going to be your circle of healing um and then once it starts getting really close you're losing your Mana you want to throw some prayer mendings out lesser heels and focus more on uh focus more on Mana efficiency in these raids right now than uh than doing the most healing in the party that's what your circle of healing is for if it gets to that point and you need to heal the whole party circle of healing that's your oh button that is the one that's going to save your rid and that's why I like to keep it there I mean because I feel like I I do enough single Target healing I don't need Penance right now I don't need Penance I do enough I got three different heals I got my big heel I got my flash heel and I got my lesser heel and with Serendipity uh it starts proing or it starts stacking it makes those casts way shorter I don't right now I don't need penants to really put that much health into one person but that's the rotation I would suggest as a holy priest right now sorry I I know I went on I went on talking about it but it's very important that is my rotation that's what I do so let's go on to the next thing though uh we'll go to basic consumables for raids right here and I'm going to move my I'm going to move my face if I can one second just move my face over your basic consumables here I mean this stuff is real real simple I mean I even use lesser Mana pots right now I think the big Mana pots are just way too expensive I I'm not balling I don't have many alts I'm I'm pretty lazy I mean hell even with uh my gear I don't even have the spider silk boots I honestly I'm a lazy gamer dude so I can be lazy I'm just waiting for uh waiting for gear to drop for me in BFD what can I say but basic consum you're going to be always have Shadow protection potions for BFD um if you can get the scroll of spirits be careful they like to you know people like to put them on the market for like a th000 gold and that people accidentally buy them scull of spirit too um get your heavy crocus stew and H black fathom Mana oil that's the big one guys if you get the black fathom Mana oil in the shadow protection pot you're pretty much good food bonus is a bonus uh Scrolls a bonus um and it goes without saying say always keep your Ford up always keep your inner fire up if you can um but yeah Mana pot Shadow protection pot and black fathom uh Mana oil is going to be your big ones food bonus Scrolls not so crazy um so we already did kind of talk about uh the uh raid bosses about the crit chance of uh circle of healing and the inspiration proc you get from the talents um so let's go on and talk about add-ons in my setup cuz I know a lot of you guys were curious about that so when it comes to my add-ons and my setup here um right here I have my healbot healbot I've been using forever uh I've been I've been playing World of Warcraft for almost I mean I think 14 years when it came out I I don't even know anymore I've been playing it forever so I and every ever since I've been using healbot hbot is so easy to operate I love it I mean look at this so all this may look daunting it's really not you just go to spells and right here you can just see where uh and I'm a clicker I know it's a it's a sin in World of Warcraft to be a clicker but I am um right here uh you know you just put the spell you want in that's my that's left click my middle click right click uh Mouse button for which is like on the side of your mouse mouse button five I don't even have one for so let's say you get too many you know you have more spells well that's where I go to shift now this is shift click so that's you know all I got to do is hold shift down with my pinky while I'm playing and then I get my and then I hold shift and my left click does a different ability it does circle of healing uh my middle shift click does heal and my uh right shift click does Flash of heal this is like the main thing you're going to mess with with healbot guys and I just love the way it looks uh if you were to set it up and download it instantly you know uh I take like the gyal if I were you I take off uh I'm not sure where it is but I take off the uh the Target right here maybe frames it's somewhere uh sometimes whenever you target someone it'll pop up like here on the side it'll say like oh your Target's health I take that off I hate it it's very annoying um the next one we got is decursive and you guys were probably curious about this one this one is very very this one's amazing you don't even have to mess with the on this and if anyone's ever wondering how you move the decursive cuz you'll see these little boxes you hold alt right next to your space bar and left click it and you can move it I like it right above my heel bot but decursive literally all if if I got if if a snowflower got hit with a curse all I have to do click the Box see it says nothing to dispel that's cure and then uh so you can do it'll automatically do your dispel and your cure disease if your left click is going to be your dispel your right click is going to be your cure disease so and all you do is click the Box you don't have to Target anyone you don't have to go to healbot to do it you literally just left right click left right click until that thing that box is empty that's the cursive it's an amazing add-on um if you're wondering about UI I'll just go through a quick little thing about my UI uh cuz I like it I like uh seeing like their cast bars and stuff like that um it's called shadowed unit frames and to open it all you do is enter slsf and it'll open Shadow unit frames and when uh you you open this what you can do like I said a lot of these add-ons look daunting oh here let me uh let move my face a little bit so you guys can see put it down here so when you uh you know you go here you always the main ones you're going to play play with are going to be player and Target player and Target the these are going to be the big ones you're going to mess with cuz look on the player I can make it uh I can make my portrait enabled disabled enabled Ena not you know frame I can make it bigger I can make it huge I can make it normal um this is the import important one for me though I like to see the cast bars in the top like when I when I'm fighting someone or if I if I'm fighting you know uh I want to see their cast bars I want to see what they're throwing at me so I'll have a cast bars enabled so I can see the cast but I'll also have it uh hidden so when I'm not casting a bar I don't have something there but when I start casting it you'll see it so uh that's important for me I just like that it's a little quality of life same with the target like you see the target I have the target uh a little bit bigger than my party people you know my party members and stuff like that it's just Quality of Life cast bar enabled hide bar I always have those enabled and really that's the only ones I really mess with the shadow uni frames I think it's just quality I like seeing the numbers too it shows me exactly how much mana and health I have um yeah let's Shadow uni frames here uh we're going to and then deadly boss mods if you're if you play World of Warcraft you know uh you know deadly boss mods it's been around for ages it's definitely uh something you need if you're rating dbm's awesome um there's really not much I could say to it like when you're in a raid the best way to show it show you is to like download it just go to a raid or a dungeon and it'll start showing like U little things pop up and it'll generally pop up right here so it'll pop up right here and then I got like you know my party here I got decursive here and I got I got uh you know deadly boss mods going off here so it's a good little setup I like it right here it's like a nice little uh like a nice little setup here I like that um and then last one the last add- on that I think's like quality of life too uh is uh the taco tip gear score it just shows your gear overall gear score like right here when you click on your character it shows gear score of items uh you know what's better than the you know what's better it's some items are obviously better than other items but it'll also show you the items that technically have the best gear score so and that that would be Taco tip so but yeah that's all my add-ons that's my uh my uh all my add-ons and my rotation my healing stuff and all that good jazz um I
