Spiritual Guidance: Thirteen dos and don'ts of a raiding holy priest
"Our Priest column is back! Every Sunday, Spiritual Guidance will offer practical insight for priests of the holy profession. Your host is now Matt Low, the grand poobah of World of Matticus, and this week he has compiled a list that raiding holy priests may find beneficial whether they consider themselves new or veterans. I've raided for a long time on my priest. My first real raid started with Zul'Gurub before I graduated to Molten Core and Blackwing Lair. Unfortunately, I started late in the game to the point where I never really appreciated AQ 40 or Naxxramas. Years later, I am now working my towards Illidan after mopping the floor with Archimonde. It's difficult for a holy priest to begin raiding. The learning curve can be steep at times because there are so many options available. That being said, there are a few lessons I've learned from raiding that have proven universal. They had as much application back then as they do now and I wanted to pass them on to any new budding raid priests. Check out all thirteen tips, from reagents to situation awareness, right after the break. Do over pack on reagents: There are going to be times when you are the only priest in the raid group. You are single handedly responsible for the fort of the entire raid. Having over 1000 additional hit points is a required buffer to have in end game raiding. Being caught without reagents is generally frowned upon by most guilds. Do things without being asked: Don't wait around for players to ask you for fort. The latest raidframe addons display the buffs that you can cast on other players (XPerl, Pitbull, etc). Even if another priest is designated the buffer for that group, save the raid some time and just do it. Reagents cost the same amount as toothpicks anyway.
wow geld If there's a new priest in the raid who is unsure of what to do on the boss, let them in on the MO of the boss (which is lawyer speak for method). Brief them of what to expect as a priest. Do have thick skin: As healers, we are the make or break class in a raid. When anything bad happens, we are the first players that get placed under the microscope and absorb the blame. wow gold I've owned up to my share of mistakes and I'll let you in on a secret. Half of those mistakes were never really my fault. But in the interest of time and progression, I take the blame so that we could get going. wow powerleveling If you don't think you can handle the pressure and the criticism from other classes, then raiding might not be an end game activity for you. Do use consumables regularly: Being a player whose eyes are literally glued to raid frames, it's easy to tell the difference players who use potions early and those who use it late. The point here is that you want to get that cooldown working. The holy trinity of raid consumables consists of Flask of Mighty Restoration, Superior Mana Oil, and Golden Fish Sticks (or Blackened Sporefish, which I prefer). Do ask for help: Whether it's because you're unsure of your assignment or because you ran out of mana, don't hesitate to scream and get attention fast. wow gold verkaufen This is especially true in a raid instance like Mount Hyjal. I have yet to encounter another instance that is more punishing on wipes. If you're not familiar by now, one small mistake can snowball into a wipe in a short amount of time. lotro gold Guess what.
You get to do it all over again.
