Do's and don't's of priest healing︰WoW Gold


Another Sunday is upon us, and while a certain priest WoW Gold who shall WoW Gold wow gold remain nameless (his name might start with a "F" and end with an "ox Van Allen") lies about in a post-Warlock-soiree-stupor somewhere, Spiritual Guidance and Dawn Moore are here to cater to all your priest and healing needs. Dawn Moore won't forget to pick you up from the airport, and she definitely doesn't watch Jersey Shore.

I have this notebook; it's nothing special in design, just a composition book, but after using it for several months it has become quite an impressive little catalog of messy handwriting (though, I was recently told I make a nice lowercase "G.") What makes this notebook worth mentioning today is that I've used this notebook every week since I started writing for WoW.com six months ago. In it are all my thoughts, notes, questions and more about playing a priest and healer in the World of Warcraft. There are also some random drawings where I illustrate my raid leader's unusual commentary.

As each week passes I tend to cross out things that WoW Gold wow gold I've covered in articles, and make a notation of the date on which I published it. Many articles are born in this little book. Unfortunately, there are a lot of stray notes in it as well. What I mean by that are there are lots of scribbles of ideas that don't quite constitute a full feature article, but still make for a worthwhile discussion. Today, I've decided to compile those stray thoughts into a list of "do's and don't's" for my fellow healing priests.

Of course, the nature of such a list is a bit out of the ordinary for me, since sagdyqwtmow I don't Louis Vuitton Bags Louis Vuitton Bags typically like to tell people what to do. For this reason I'll try to not say anything too horrendously offensive about your mothers or talent choices. Let's get on with it then, shall we?

Play to your strengths The internet is a great place WoW Gold to complain about everything, and the shortcomings of the priest class are definitely a discussion Louis Vuitton Bags louis vuitton bags that comes up frequently here. But whether you agree or disagree with me (or anyone) about how priests are now (or ever), you should always remember to play to your strengths. That means looking at your best spells (Power Word: Shield, Penance, Circle of Healing, Empowered Renew right now, for exampe) and finding ways to apply them to what you're doing. If you're a Renew-centric holy priest, for example, don't try to convince your 10-man raid that you should be keeping up the tanks. Hit the raid up instead, and let the druid try her hand at single target heals. (Druids can do more than HoTs, contrary to popular belief. They're exceptional healers, some of them just get grumpy about casting Nourish.)

Basically, what this comes down to is your ability to adapt, which is actually good advice to all healers. As this game changes and evolves, so will your strengths and weaknesses. As a priest, you will see many ups and downs Wedding Dresses Wedding Dresses and you should always be willing to try out new styles of healing to account for the shifts.

Cancel casts This topic especially is WoW Gold one I've wanted to discuss for a while but knew I'd never be able to turn into a full feature. Canceling casts is when you stop casting a spell you were casting by moving, jumping, or using a stop casting macro. Some might say canceling casts goes against Penance Priest's ABC (always be casting) advice, which I advocate, but I personally advise for the use of cancel casting for efficiency. Sure, mana isn't an issue now (though yes, it will be an issue later) but even still, canceling a bad cast will save you time if you're quick about it; saving time means saving lives.

Assuming you're canceling a cast spell (as opposed to a channel spell) you will immediately reset the global cooldown which was in process, leaving you free to cast something else. (For this reason, I do not recommend you jump to cancel a cast, as you will Wedding Party Dresses Wedding Party Dresses have to wait to land before you can begin casting again.) In addition to resetting your GCD, you will not consume any mana until your cast is finished, so there isn't any penalty for doing it.

Thanks for reading and have a good time.
