The Priest Accomplishment ThreadFollow

I got myself a new pretty mount.

I like it so much, I'm not sure I want any other flying mounts. I'll probably still get them for something to do and stuff, but I really heart my hippogryph.

Yeah, the CE one is pretty high up on my list.

I actually wanted it first, but ultimately the AT one looks more priestly.

I was about to say you should look into speccing Disc at 47, but if you're questing a lot, Smite spec is probably the better option.

I finally got around to making myself a little priest alt to level in heirlooms. Also, possibly, to learn how to play Shadow better.

I'm probably going to try and quest on her a bit more. She will be Smite spec until level 40. If I don't change my mind by then, I'll dual spec her Shadow/Disc PvP at that point and maybe get rid of that PvP spec on my main to offspec Holy for some raid encounters.

Yes, go die in a fire, drink bleach and suck start a loaded revolver.
Now get the **** off our forum with your retarded spamming and advertising.

RS is very noticeable in my experiences doing BGs this weekend. For arena ya I can see it being less of a deal.

RS means that when people are attacking you, they have to be much more careful.
And in arena that can mean less pressure on you because that rogue can't quite follow you around the pillar and LoS his healer because as long as he's beating on you he's going to die that much faster.

You still have 3/3 enlightenment, while spirit and haste are nice they're really mediocre stats for us and the first place to sacrifice points.

Edit: I run with 54/17/0 and an overall really aggressive build.
And 57/14/0 would be pretty much the most defensive build I'd play with.

It isn't enough for cap - you need ~5% haste still (which is what, 160 rating?). I know, I'm under hastecap at the moment.

The Spirit from Enlightenment is great for mana as I need all the regen I can get in PvP. Same with haste as resilience takes up a good chunk of item budgets.

Plus you need ~400 haste with Enlightenment and BT to cap haste.

I'm not good enough to run and drink.

I like the stable return from Spirit in PvP as Rapture can only proc every 13 secs or so and you can't usually time it to get multi-proc on AoE like in PvE.

I want the haste so I can cast more faster.

Crit is good and all but the gear is so un-crit friendly that going into crit in a serious way isn't a real option.

I actually like haste and spirit for PvP. Spirit gear at least, as if I went into the crit gear it would hurt regen to much and it is low enough all ready. This makes me devalue crit on off set as it wont push it high enough to matter.

edit: Plus haste has a hard cut off point for usefulness in PvP so getting there and then going elsewhere is easier. As crit is a go as high as you can stat. Especially since you need hit and Spell Pen as well.

My PVP set is Mooncloth set pieces and the MP5 or Spirit option, if there is one, in every other slot except Hit shoulders and ring.

My Holy crit is just around 20% (which is still enough for Divine Aegis to be useful) and my haste rating is, wait for it, a big fat zero. But I never run out of mana. Ever. Even in a skirmish where the other team has a druid healing, I'm still the last healer standing.

All my gear, gem, and enchant choices are focused on resilience and mana, so I'm the little Energizer bunny of priests. There are of course significant tradeoffs that I know a lot of people couldn't stand to make, but I love it.
