Discipline Priest

2019.04.11

Introduction

Discipline priest is a really good healer class with many supportive abilities and the best possible way to keep your team alive: absorbing incoming damages. This is why they are a MUST in every 25 raid but also they are viable in 10 man raids along with a resto shaman or a holy paladin.

Talent

This is the talent I prefer to use anytime but you can make some changes: Focused Will, Improved Flash Heal are not essential you can change them or not use both of them and use Improved Healing on Holy tree for instance. It's up to your playstyle, experiment with these, think about which could be more effective for you.

Glyphs

1. Major Glyphs

- Glyph of Power Word: Shield Your Power Word: Shield also heals the target for 20% of the absorption amount.

- Glyph of Penance Reduces the cooldown of Penance by 2 sec.

- Glyph of Prayer of Healing Your Prayer of Healing spell also heals an additional 20% of its initial heal over 6 sec.

2. Minor Glyphs

- Glyph of Fortitude Reduces the mana cost of your Power Word: Fortitude and Prayer of Fortitude spells by 50%.

- Glyph of Shadow Protection Increases the duration of your Shadow Protection and Prayer of Shadow Protection spells by 10 min.

- Glyph of Shadowfiend Receive 5% of your maximum mana if your Shadowfiend dies from damage.
