New test realm patch notes.

Unless they put the cooldown back to 5 seconds the way it was in the beta, I don't see Holy Nova ever being useful.

That's your opinion and you're entitled to it, but I happen to like holy nova. It's not a "use all the time" skill, but it can come in handy. I've used it to heal up our mages and do some damage and it doesn't cause any aggro whatsoever. Yeah, it doesn't reduce aggro, but at least I can heal the entire group instantly and without causing additional aggro. Generally it goes out if I want to top off the group's hitpoints and a prayer of healing feels too slow to really help. I hit that and then if people besides the main tank are still hurt or still getting hit, I do prayer of healing. Most of the time though, that quick flash is enough to give everyone enough hitpoints to last until I can finish the prayer of healing. It may have really, completely sucked in the past, but it has its utility now. Granted, it's of limited utility, but it does have utility.

And I'm done talking about priests on these boards. People don't die under my watch very often so apparently I'm doing something right, but the feeling I get from these boards is that I have no clue in hell. Someone kick me the next time I try to give some kind of perspective about how my priest in particular plays. <_<
