I would say it depends on the situation, if you're the "third healer", the one you bring to get more heals, goes dps when you two-heal and is always a step behind other two in healing done, it doesn't really matter. Both Holy and Disc can do that very well, pick the one you like the most. Holy may have the upper hand here, since haste is good for both Holy and Shadow, which will make it easier to dual-spec.
However, if you're one of the "other two" Healers, I would recommend to go Discipline. As much as I would like to recommend Holy in 10 man, I can't do it in good faith. It just feels very underwhelming at the moment and it feels too often as if you're trying very hard to achieve very little.
In short: Holy will get the job done, but Discipline can make the difference between a kill and a wipe. Keeping that in mind, if you're raiding flex with the occasional normal, playing your spec well is going to make a much bigger difference than choosing the right spec.
Play the spec you like the most and try to make the best out of it. New poster here! I've recently started back up again and decided to play my priest. After all this talk about how disc is the craziest specialization I decided why not. That was in 5. Now in 5. I just cant seem to keep up.
But it may be a gear thing. For you being such a low iLvl I say do what you want they are both comparable in 10 man, just don't get frustrated when a Shaman or Druid out heal you. It is bound to happen. Good Luck with your decision! Now, back to regemming. Since you are running flex I would just advise you too try out one spec one week then the other spec the next week or in two week changes and see which you feel is better for your group.
Although if you are two healing things I would have to say disc will be better but with three healing both are pretty good. I believe holy for 10m is crit anyway. As Holy it is far more important to really know the fight. Being in the right chakra at the right moment is the most important thing you have to do as Holy. As discipline you only need to know when to put bubbles up :. After the first haste break point crit is ranked higher, even by icy veins standards for 10m holy.
As discipline you only need to know when to put bubbles up. Not necessarily more important, most of the time your going to be in serenity unless there's high constant raid dmg then you swap to sanctuary which is something you can react to and still be fine. Disc really shines in 10 mans because you can contribute a significant amount to DPS and provide shield buffers.
Either resto spec is currently able to do what holy does better than holy, so I find the shield and DPS niche to be much more valuable.
Holy has much better raw throughput especially AoE and that will tend to increase in effectiveness the larger your raid gets. I'm completely biased for Holy. In this tier i believe for 2 healing Holy is better, and 3 healing Disc priest is better because of the dps. However its completely reliant on who your healing partners are :. Holy doesn't have strong smart heals e. CoH , so expect to not top healing meters, unless youre on Norushen!!!!
Can't really give you a good advise on this since i raid 25man. We usually raid priest sometimes 2 shammy, druid, monk, paladin it depends we usually take 5 healers for each fight. Important note is that I don't have legendary cloak yet and they have about 10ilvls on me and I have bad trinkets.
My conclusion is that yes, you can heal as holy priest but a druid, specially a druid, in 25man at least will always surpass you and you'll overheal like crazy so will he but you'll heal less and spend more mana than him. I'm not sure if i've explained myself well, or if this is even on-topic but dispite loving to heal as holy alot more than disc , discipline just seems alot more effective atm.
In reference to the post above: When changing form holy to disc, you will nearly always see an increase in hps, simply because your shields will always take preference to any other 'heals'. Seems like damage mitigation is always superior to raw healing.
It certainly is and sadly this is why i think holy will never be competitive and truly viable when disc is right there. The only reason to play holy over disc is is that you like how it feels. The fact that a class has two specs where one is objectively better than the other in all aspects is just bad design and something does need to change. I think FC Lego is the reason many struggle with holy or more to the point those trying without it.
I cannot think of any way you could manage without it, flash heals to little and costs to much. With trail of light and FC you are doing 13k Crit spamming every 1. With very little mana cost. Save Surge procs to keep stacks and use them at about 1second to reset it. For the above reasons - FC as a legendary is broken. So the fact that Disc is the best healer or second best has little consequence.
Disc has a high ceiling and a very very low floor. Holy Priest does not allow a free choice of effective heals - you are required to spam Flash Heal, to cut the CD on Holy Word: Serenity to do the high throughput, that kids like so much. My favorite would probably be either Shaman or Monk.
But again, there are circumstances where I prefer druid or very rarely Holydin. When you mature as a healer, and perhaps even a healing coordinator in raids as I have been you will learn that a good healer is not judged on how much they heal, but on how they heal. I can do big numbers on my druid as the team wipes - what good do big numbers do there?
Discipline or Holy for PvE? Classes Priest. Sounds like user error.
