And about holy nova and holy fire, in release the priest boards were filled with complaints of "why have the top tier talents doing damage rather than healing better?" I guess you don't agree with all those other priests either. I think the main thing you are forgetting is the difference between PvP and PvE. PvE isn't solely about how much damage can you pump out in a short amount of time. The aggro reduction would be a help when your fade is still in cooldown (and would be even with improved fade). The AoE heal is nice. And it's not just a "save the group from a wipe once in a blue moon" skill MJ.
But since you've made up your mind on beta holy nova and refuse to actually see what this version of holy nova is like, it's fruitless to continue the discussion and I don't like my opinion being belittled instead of actually discussed.
And the reason why I keep mentioning how holy nova isn't pointless is because while the holy tree is "broken", it's not broken because of holy nova. It's the other talents available that make the holy tree less than desirable. It's not a neutered holy fire or neutered holy nova, it's the great utility of the other trees and lack of anything really unique in the holy tree that make it less than desirable.
Intolerant monkey.
