I might just do a whole buncha posts today!
First things first though... Wednesday night I did an interview with Exanna at
OMGpriest! for her podcast, and it was pretty fun. I sound so tired and goofy, so all of you haters will want to listen to it and give me hell for it!
In all seriousness, it's a
fairly short interview just talking about some of the
basics of Discipline priesting... things you might want to know if you're
switching from Holy to Disc. Listening to it now, I keep thinking of all these other things I should have said, but alas, hind sight is always 20/20. It can be rough making the switch, but Exanna and I went over some of the
basics that a fresh Disc Priest may need to know.
Check it out on her page: OMGpriest!!~~~~~~~~~~~~
And speaking of newbie Disc Priests, I want to leave you with a lesson I learned in a ToC25 pug tonight -
It is far better to do nothing but cast Power Word: Shield as a Disc Priest
than it is to go through entire fights without casting it once. I've run into this a lot lately in pugs - other priests healing tanks with me, and me feeling that I needed to shield their tanks because they just weren't doing it themselves. Yes, Penance is an awesome spell - and you could argue that Penance is a bigger staple of the Disc Priest diet than even Power Word: Shield. But the foundation of Disc Priesting is mitigation -
SO USE YOUR SHIELDS OR I WILL CRINGE.
And then I'll blog about it.
But at least I don't name names. I'd like to think that if you are a Disc Priest, and you read this blog... you know better.
