Incoming fresh players! As we're getting closer to release, you'll only have a few more days to be one of the OGs of Praise! Come and apply, talk with us on discord, and channel your inner hard core!

Hello Prettyrad, Yes, it is correct that this guide is solely focused on end-game raiding for priest. Even beyond that, it is focused on those players that seek to min-max the shit out of their character, their raiding performance and their preparation altogether. I am quite sure that your guide would be a proper replacement of the guide that is currently stickied (props to the guy that made it, it's always nice to see contributions by the community, but it simply has a shitton of misinformation I'm afraid). My comments will be bolded and underlined in the quotes I took of your text.

Happy New Year to everybody! Thinking of those new years resolutions again and haven't put something solid in the workings yet? Make a change for the better, start the new year properly this time and be that person a hardcore guild would call its member! There are still spots open in our pre-launch recruitment roster! Jindo, Officer of Praise

Definitly should update this. I won't PVP myself because I got better things to do as a priest and don't really care about r12/13 gear, but making it to become "GO R14 or gtfo" is pretty awful in every sense of the word.

Shayss pissed off. People here are afraid of custom changes to the extent that it is paranoia. I must agree with him here though, it's a slippery slope

I had this bug. Easiest way to get rid of it is to delete the config file in your WTF folder. THen you just need to setup your video options and interface options again, but it does get rid of the bug.

The reason why you don't see alliance guilds recruiting specifically for world PVP is because the alliance guilds that will focus on world pvp a lot do not set it out as something substantially different from their PVE objectives. To succeed in PVE you want to secure world objectives either way, so if you want to place your money on active world PVP you would have to join a more hardcore Alliance guild until a guild focused specifically on world pvp comes along.

Hello Blackshadows, First of all, thank you for showing interest into the guild! After you have made an application you will be contacted by us on Discord (after you have joined our Discord as listed in the application form). There we will have a discord chat about your application. By the end of this chat you will know whether you are accepted of rejected. ~Jindo, Officer of Praise.

In a sole attempt to keep it civil in here I'm going to end our discussion on this note: There were no personal attacks launched against you, and if you perceived it as such then that's on you and how you interpret my wording. I am asking for feedback, but I assume that people who give it actually do more than skim through the guide and read the explanations I give in there so I don't have to repeat myself continuously. Clearing MC in 33 minutes might seem like a big feat to you, but if you look at the MC clearing records on nost PVP it really isn't. Topping average healing on realmplayers is no accurate source, for all I know you could be whoring healing or be assigned to a role that gives you higher HPS than other roles. Mentioning tailoring is pretty useless if you don't give a gear description (as I haven't), especially considering tailoring is dropped the second truefaith is crafted -.-. You can read the guide and take up its information, or keep healing your way. If you are under the impression your healing method is better, then stick to your healing method. My reputation stretches across multiple private servers for over 5 years time, and so far I have yet to meet a priest that can outheal me in any healing role available to priests. You might be the first one, and if that would be the case then I concede my point, but I sincerely doubt that would be the case. Jindo.

You proved my point, thanks for the bump, now shall we let the guide be for people that actually want to accomplish more than being carried in raids shall we?

Situational awareness is such a vague and all-encompassing term that you can get away with that, since basically everything a healer does belongs in that category... And situational awareness can be taught in part (npc abilities, damage taken by classes, tactics etc. all contribute to better situational awareness of players). To be an elite dps is just knowing a rotation, there's literally nothing more to it. It's not difficult at all for mages to spam frostbolt, warlocks to spam shadowbolt and shadowburn, rogues to spam sinister strike and slice n dice, warriors to spam bloodthirst, overpower and whirlwind (as main abilities). Healing is all about knowing your raid inside-out, knowing your class and its strengths and weaknesses, and knowing mechanics of fights to a higher extent than dpsers will ever have to. If you believe healing is casual then you probably have never seen some healers pull out numbers twice as high as most other healers. On part of your retail experience, it doesn't matter for фекал. There were so many top guilds back in retail that didn't even use a single consumable while fighting naxxramas bosses. Retail vanilla was a very casual experience in comparison to private servers, especially competition-wise.

That's because it's not made for casuals, I'm sorry it isn't for you but it is telling.

Inb4 you are a horde player

I'm just gonna highlight a few things that are terribly wrong in this guide. Not giving much explanation, since it is pretty much self-explanatory: Renew sucks. No, it doesn't suck, check downranking. Pre-raid gear. It generally bad to make a static pre-raid gear setup like this, your spells used and gear choices depend on your job in the raid. Keeping gear static will be sub-optimal.
