Advanced Topics in Priest Play

[MongoJerry]

Our priest must be lazy or we're just risk-takers.  He preshields our mages while I go charge headlong into battle and get everyone riled up.  He tosses a renew on me, and the mages go to town with various AoE attacks (generally IAE combined with Frost Nova and the occasional Blizzard.)  I use rage accrued to snare the mobs, the mages nuke them, and we move on.  Just seems much more efficient than having me tank each and every mob and forcing the mages to use a quarter of their attack power so that I can maintain aggro.

When you stop zerging instances, you'll find this tactic won't work. At level 58, you should be running lower Blackrock Spire and Scholomance in 5-man teams, or if you want a little easier time, you can run Blackrock Depths. But from our earlier discussions (when you were running the Scarlet Monastery at mid-to-high 40's), I imagine that you're just running Marauden and the Sunken Temple now. When you fight mobs of roughly your own level and boss mobs at levels higher than you, you'll find that many tactics you had used before stop working.
