so far, i've seen NOTHING good for priest in the expension. everything seem to be made in order to destroy caster. not only do the dps class receive *anti-cloth* ability, but fear is getting nerfed again ( and every-class can remove it ). our healing spell have been nerfed ( low level healing spell receive less +healing now...), rogue/warrior can decrease our healing effectiveness by 50%.
casting a spell while been hit make it take longer to cast, which mean a 1.5sec spell can take 2.5sec to cast. if you try to cast a spell ( example: smite ) on a warrior, he can just run through you and it will make you fail your spell ( target must be in front of you ). no matter how good you are, if the other person is also good, you will fail your spell most of the time.
Healing is NOT a good defence. dps class do more dmg to me than i can heal ( with equal gear...).
everyclass have a way to interrupt or silence you but us, priest, have no way to *disarm* a dps class
rogue/warrior/hunter get more dps by having +attack power gear AND agility/strength, while us, caster, can only get better dps by having +dmg gear ( which mean in many case that we must sacrifice intel/spirit/stamina bonus )
so i'm wondering if you plan to delete the priest class or just wait until we do all reroll when the expension come out. take a look at the priest forum if you have time.
