Wotlk holy priest is not Tbc holy priest anymore. Its diferent in any way.
To start, we are the best raid healers at the moment (since shamans are nerfed and druids must sweat to catch us).
I´ve tried some builds in holy tree and i made one that im very satisfied with.

Since i rarely use the greater heal, i decided to nerf it on the tree and boost aoe heal some more.
I got great results in Ulduar.

Please update your post regarding Dispersion. As of 3.0.3, it doesn’t regen health nor to move during the 6 sec period. It may not be dispelled which isn’t important.

If a straight Holy DPS Smite build is not as viable, and with few damage boosters deep down the Holy or Discipline trees, how about a build like this for PVE and occasional PVP?

[...] that doesn’t mean I’ve gone all ostrich; I’ve read a bit of stuff about Priest Talents and Hunter Pet Trees, but I haven’t gone all gaga over the beta. That said, there is a major [...]

The PVP disc build is going to depend a lot on how Penance works out I think. Wish I had a beta account. If it’s good then Aspiration then may be very handy as it drops the cooldown from 10s to 8s.

There’s so much good stuff in the disc tree now it’s really hard to choose. Yoie failed to notice Enlightenment now has an extra 5% damage/healing. That’s nice but to get Power Infusion you may have to give it all up. Divine Aegis is another possible pass. Holy priests might want to start stacking crit but I still don’t see it being worthwhile for disc.

Focused Will seems to be nerfed even more than you mentioned, looking at the latest trees it seems to be half as good as the current talent for the healing bonus. Might make Blessed Recovery more tempting. In any case with Silent Resolve bumped up and so many tempting talents to choose from, I’d be really reluctant to spend talent points on anything just for dispel fodder until it’s proved necessary.

Merlot, if you don’t believe me, would you believe shadowpriest.com? See this post: http://shadowpriest.com/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=14892

Re: spell pushback. Are you sure? The wording is terrible if it is. The current talent tip on the official site reads:

“Your fade ability now has 100% chance to remove all movement impairing effects when used while in shadowform, and gives you a 70% chance to avoid interruption caused by damage when casting any shadow spell while in shadow form.”

The “and gives you” refers gramatically to the “fade ability” – even if that’s not what the writer intended.

I’ll have to ask someone with a beta key to test it :)
