Season of Discovery Discipline Priest Healer Guide

Master of both the Void and the Light, Discipline Priest offers you a ton of different ways to play one of World of Warcrafts most iconic healers. Discipline Priest excels in not only group healing, but is one of the best single target healers as well. Priest is widely regarded as the most universal healer as its massive toolkit allows you to react to almost any healing related situation as long as you have a comfortable knowledge of your abilities and how they function. Discipline Priest also provides the massively important Power Word: Fortitude and Prayer of Shadow Protection buffs.

While certainly benefiting from being in a party, finding groups as a healing Priest is likely never to be an issue. Their massive healing output, powerful buffs and countless emergency buttons will make you extremely valuable not only for dungeons and raids, but also any PvP Content be that Battlegrounds or open world combat.
