The timing is perfect I can’t believe it. I watched the holy priest guide earlier today. Went for a shower. Went to buy some groceries. Came back to find a disc guide because I want to roll that. And here it is. 40 min fresh. Thanks a bunch!
To bad disc and holy are so diffrent in secondary stats, would be great to just switch around freely without having to worry about having to much haste in holy spec
Interesting that they added in mini set ups to do outside of your bigger CDs. I found that Oracle seems to be more of a passive increase to help people learn disc, and then void is better for giving more power for your set ups when you get the hang of it. No idea if that was planned but thats kinda how I personally see the talent powers working
There is a pw:s build where penance magnifies it on top of the hero talent as well. When done correctly with instant radiance talents+penance blob boosts you can give up “super penance” and have points in on some other +%damage options. The degrading shield is almost always used up by the damage but with renew and FH reducing CD on PW:S it’s always available. Use rapture as much as you can. If you do decide to keep Superpenance then don’t forget to self cast it so that it favors friendly targets. Don’t underestimate the power of it with 2 radiants out and using on adds. I had 599 ilvl and was hanging with 616s 1 or 2 top of the chart. When done right it… when you have the discipline to watch your timers. It’s bonkers and needs to be nerfed. Because you’re doing a lot of instant castes give up some haste for mastery.
The hardest part of disc in raid… trying to stay calm, while applying atonement to the whole raid… and then drop in to your dps window…. While monk, dragon, shaman, holy pally healers are pulling 500k more in a second .. lol
I mean, even as a new disc player, topping charts isn't difficult, the biggest issue is people slamming cooldowns mid ramp for zero reason. Unfortunate reality in pugs
@@CovertGhostAgent This is absolutely not true, for many reasons. I highly doubt a brand new disc player is gonna top charts easily. It's very dependent on not only a high knowledge of the fight but of playing disc in general. Telling a brand new disc its easy to top charts is setting them up for disappointment. It's gonna be a bit of a learning curve as a brand new disc.
i dont know if changes were made or what but to me it doesnt seem like atonement is even lasting 14 seconds anymore... and I have been targeting people for radiance but somehow I still end up missing a bunch of people with it. I feel like a noob all over again :(
Why do you use Rapture and Evangelism at 9:10 and then power word radiance and not shielding anything? You use mind blast and penance instead. Waste of rapture ?
If you wanted to check lorrgs.io you can see how consistently people stack or spread the cooldowns. All of Dragonflight people stacked them like 80% of the time. Particularly w high movement fights and the time it takes our rift to detonate, having the extra atone duration on both your 1.5min cds used together adds a high layer of consistency to your ramps Using rapture solo is fine but doesn’t really add much imo, esp since it’s less shields now and so casting 3-4 shields into radiance is often not much different than using normal shields/renews into radiances for a mini ramp
Hi, Thanks for your disc guides. It helped me a lot when I switched from shadow a year ago! Are you thinking about a guide which would describes how to play disc for each boss individually?
Mr automaticjak, how do you heal bloodhound horror? I’ve literally been kicked from groups because my hps is (too low) on this boss but there’s not really a lot to heal, my parses on normal are like 80’s and 90’s apart from the odd boss where I’ve messed up. But this boss on heroic just doesn’t seem like there’s a massive amount to heal.. like no one dies to lack of healing, it’s always mechanical issues.
I watch the timers for Crimson Rain and im always setting up atonement for that mechanic each time. Its definitely an awkward fight for disc w the raid being cut in half
I’ve noticed that if Shadow covenant ends mid dark halo cast it cancels it. I think this is something that needs to be fixed. Unless there’s something I don’t understand about it. Any thoughts?
Haha I appreciate your optimism. I associate “feature” with a positive connotation. If my car turned off while driving I wouldn’t call that a feature 😂😂. Great videos man. Thanks for responding
How do you practice? I tried switching to Disc Priest (only ever played Holy before), was doing well on my own and completing quests so I thought I'd head into a dungeon. I expected there to be a learning curve because healing in a dungeon is a very different thing from questing alone. Well, I don't think I can get over that learning curve because other players don't give you a chance to practice. I tried twice. Both times, I told them that I was new to the subclass and both times, I got kicked around the time of the first boss (once during the fight and once after beating it) and ended up with the Dungeon Deserter debuff for half an hour. We didn't even wipe. I died once before I was kicked the first time and twice the second time. How on Azeroth do you practice healing in a group with a new subclass when nobody will let you?
i improved significantly and was able to adjust some talents to better suit me through the proving grounds. definitely my go to when changing/adjusting talents or trying new things
@@AutomaticJak oh...that way..yea no brann is doing dog water dmg now for me..I was more asking about the class doing the job..My mistweaver is 590 I can solo t7 but my bran has really low dmg..they made really annoying for healers
@@AutomaticJak Yea Ive done that too.. I just restarted leveling my disc priest.. If you dont mind man can you tell me jsut one last thing? How much dps can you do to a single target dummy? and how much usual dps you do to those 5 dummies in dornagal?
Tldr. Wanna play disc- play monk/palladin. Even holy priest way better in raid, because blizzard cannot do what they promised ( less burst damage, and more sustain dmg)

I don’t say this for only this video, just in general, Jak single handily is holding up the Priest community. Appreciate it mate ❤
I just started disc priest and your videos have single handily helped me understand the class! Subscribed!
Glad to hear it!
To bad disc and holy are so diffrent in secondary stats, would be great to just switch around freely without having to worry about having to much haste in holy spec
I have to heal mythic today as a shadow main and this helps a lot, thanks ❤

@0:20 there's actually 5 abilities @AutomaticJak
The hardest part of disc in raid… trying to stay calm, while applying atonement to the whole raid… and then drop in to your dps window…. While monk, dragon, shaman, holy pally healers are pulling 500k more in a second .. lol
the hardest part is dodging swirlies and doing mechanics while ramping :D
I mean, even as a new disc player, topping charts isn't difficult, the biggest issue is people slamming cooldowns mid ramp for zero reason. Unfortunate reality in pugs
Monk can be very punishing if you time it poorly but true for the rest.. proactive and reactive healers are not the same
I suggest playing disc only in mythic raid or any raid with lower numbers of healers or just go holy priest

Thanks for this Jak. I stand a much better chance thanks to your percise tips. Best of luck in RWF! :)
Great guide as always!
Glad you enjoyed it
Disc: 100 buttons to ramp
Holy: Halo
@AutomaticJak Waiting and wishing for this guide! Thank you so much❤
I'm so bad at disc in raid, but it's so much fun. Lol
Keep practicing! I used Sikran a lot as an example because I believe it’s one of the best to practice on
@AutomaticJak if you don't have a friendly target when casting radiance, who does it base the 30 yard range from? The caster or the boss?
It will cast on you if you don’t have a target
@@AutomaticJak thank you, I think that's my problem. Lmao
Wow that was really in-depth AND concise at the same time, great guide!
Hey, thanks!
so with disc priest u need to predict every damage ? And with holy u can just go for dumb overhealing
Not predict as such. It's about being proactive before pulls
Wym before Pulls? @@wazzok2973
ty for the guide. exactly what i needed!
You had me at hello ni e video didn't understand much but it was nice tks
man i really miss old disc, all about the bubbles
Do you have a video on your hotkeys? Mine suck and I'm not sure what I want to do with them
Why do you use Rapture and Evangelism at 9:10 and then power word radiance and not shielding anything? You use mind blast and penance instead. Waste of rapture ?
I see Jaks video, I click! :D
Thank you!
Im such a crap disc priest and I won't stop until I figure it out.
Can you explain how the ramp/rotation would change when utilizing uppies? Starting after your 15-20 atonements are out :) tyvm
would like to hear your extended opinion on stacking vs splitting rapture with eva, really contraversial topic for me
If you wanted to check lorrgs.io you can see how consistently people stack or spread the cooldowns. All of Dragonflight people stacked them like 80% of the time.
Particularly w high movement fights and the time it takes our rift to detonate, having the extra atone duration on both your 1.5min cds used together adds a high layer of consistency to your ramps

Thanks 😍 I miss the 4th bonus from DF 🥴
Me too!!
Fresh trim for the disc guide
Can I pleaseeee get a mist weaver guide!! I absolutely loved the holy guide, I need a guide for my alt 😂 thank you keep up the great content
Thank you as always!
My pleasure!
Ok thats cool, but what do we do when there is no ramp? just juggle between mini ramping and ramping?
Yep and just pounding smites while you maintain atone on tanks
I tried blood hound briefly and immediately swapped into my holy paladin :p
Where can I find your Discipline Priest Raid Guide War Within Season 1 guide?

Hi, Thanks for your disc guides. It helped me a lot when I switched from shadow a year ago! Are you thinking about a guide which would describes how to play disc for each boss individually?
In my written guides yes!
@@AutomaticJak On patreon?
In my wowhead guides in the description of this video
Wich one is doing better on lower keys holy or disc 2-5?
Best Spec !!!!
Mr automaticjak, how do you heal bloodhound horror? I’ve literally been kicked from groups because my hps is (too low) on this boss but there’s not really a lot to heal, my parses on normal are like 80’s and 90’s apart from the odd boss where I’ve messed up.

I watch the timers for Crimson Rain and im always setting up atonement for that mechanic each time. Its definitely an awkward fight for disc w the raid being cut in half
How long does the ramp take from start to finish? I mean from pressing Rapture until pressing evangelism
~15-18 seconds
I’ve noticed that if Shadow covenant ends mid dark halo cast it cancels it. I think this is something that needs to be fixed. Unless there’s something I don’t understand about it. Any thoughts?
It’s been that way for awhile. Just a feature basically
Haha I appreciate your optimism. I associate “feature” with a positive connotation. If my car turned off while driving I wouldn’t call that a feature 😂😂. Great videos man. Thanks for responding
Jo, the Healsymbol in the background. is this a Displate? where did you get that? i really need that! Good Guide btw! It helps.
Yep it is!
Where can I find your UI setup?
Thanks in advance.

Follower dungeons w/ npcs
i improved significantly and was able to adjust some talents to better suit me through the proving grounds. definitely my go to when changing/adjusting talents or trying new things
Hey jack! How about delves and solo content? how is priest on those?
Are you soloing delves 8+?
Yep! Disc is very easy for solo t8 delves. MC a caster mob and just stay alive while brann and your MC kill everything
@@AutomaticJak oh...that way..yea no brann is doing dog water dmg now for me..I was more asking about the class doing the job..My mistweaver is 590 I can solo t7 but my bran has really low dmg..they made really annoying for healers
Maybe adjust the curios ur using? I have the one that causes brann to take more damage but deal more dmg and that helped a lot
@@AutomaticJak Yea Ive done that too.. I just restarted leveling my disc priest.. If you dont mind man can you tell me jsut one last thing? How much dps can you do to a single target dummy? and how much usual dps you do to those 5 dummies in dornagal?
The thumbnail game is strong
Quick question, are you still using Cell for healing? Your frames look like stock blizzard ones 😜
That was from beta footage!
Wow, your thumbnail is so smooth. Howd you do that?!
Is it possible that you link the UI and your weak aura?😁
They're in the description!~
@@AutomaticJak Thank you for the information and the great Work!😁
Hey Jak,
Next week some trinkets will be nerfed.
Can you already say if this will have an impact on the BiS list on Wowhead.
Will check on that when I’m done traveling!
@@AutomaticJak Thank you. Wish you nice Sunday.
Thank you so much for the clear and amazing video as always! Just wondering, are you planning to do a Mistweaver video? 😲
Not at the moment, have more priest/Pally/shaman stuff planned but maybe after!
how can i make my ui look like yours?
Check the description for my UI!
Watching those health bars jump so rapidly gave me anxiety
Thank you. Very good guide.
Glad it was helpful!
@@AutomaticJak Oh yes, it is. I need to use Renew more often to apply Atonement.
finally
Thank you, as a disc player. ( IDC if Holy is easier )

Disc still way too much confusing to me
Idk why people are using this shadow spect to heal. 🤮 I heal just fine with regular holy/discipline.
Tldr. Wanna play disc- play monk/palladin. Even holy priest way better in raid, because blizzard cannot do what they promised ( less burst damage, and more sustain dmg)
Nah disc is going to own
How about you let people play their classes the way they want and we let you play yours?
TL;DR : Even if you like disc, play holy
Nah disc owns :)
Nah, Disc is superior. Way more fun to play.
Disco 4 life

ANYONE willing to die with me in mythics will ask me to play disc 😂
Better Disc guide:
Step 1) Play something else.
You should take this advice with wow in general
I used to like disc; this version of design is 💩
