I got a 60 UD shadow priest in PVP realm, I got another 60 Human Holy Priest in PVE realm. and Now I'm lvling my mage, just wonder why most Malaysian in PVP realm, more challenging? cool2.gif cool2.gif cool2.gif

Pros in PVP =

- Can camp corpse and gank newbie for fun.
- When you 40 MC/BWL, you can block the opposite faction from BRD/BRS.

Cons in PVP =

- Kena corpse camp and ganked by high lvl when you just wanna (insert activity here).
- When opposite faction gathered in BRD for 40 man raid u gotta wait else they gang rape u.

Pros in PVE =

- You can be any spec you like. (i.e. Priest can be full holy without worries to kena stunt lock).

Cons in PVE =

- Other than can't camp corpse and gang newbies... I can't think of any, infact if you want fair PVP you can even log in your opposite faction's alt to shout in the city that whoever wanna PVP come infront of where and when.

I got a lots more reason for this, but lets discuss rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

In this matter I can say that Horde is not very good at helping each other, coz you can easily summon bunch of alliance to Raid Crossroad, but never seems to be able to motivates horde to raid Alliance.

Once I ganked a human priest... twice, then he come back with a higher lvl rogue (so fast =P). But when I kena ganked I can't seems to get help from Horde =P

As I'm PVE atm... do you have any problems when all of you start Rampart/Furnace? I can Imagine it will be a blood bath cause every one starts at the same place... now should be better cool2.gif

Why Allies gets burned?? this is PVP vs PVE topic... leave gnomes alone >"<

imho the previous dark zone is STV, now I guess everywhere in OUTLAND... coz everywhere I go those stupid horde are in my way KSing my mobs, can't imagine you can complete a single quest imho.

As I like to try on all different spec. I dun think I wanna be a holy spec priest with a 'free HK' on my forehead. Just like in my previou PVP realm I must play a UD shadow priest, else kena Ganked by Alliance every now and then.

And in PVP realm you got excessive rogue player, while in PVE most guild are actually recruiting rogue tongue.gif 1 rogue is great, but I've been to a UBRS consist of 4 rogue... too much??

If you wanna PVP so much go battleground, more HK. however if you like to gank on a oom mage, then PVP realm is for you sad.gif

And in PVP realm you can't create toon in opposite faction but in PVE you can do that, so you can actually transfer your Horde Gear to Your Ally char or vice versa.

You are trying to do a quest... then some lvl 70 gank you, you log out and bring in your lvl 70, then you managed to revenge, later 2 lvl 70 spawn and kills you... they you call your guildies for assistance, so forth... end of the day, no one dinged no one get any epic no gold earned no quest done... all you get is frustration tongue.gif

I'm not sure how well you pvp as healer spec for dr00d/shammy/pally. my holy priest can only beat mage/lock/non-silence hunter/pally/non-melee shammy/non catform drood, however in PVP realm all you see is rogue and more rogue... sometime invisible cat... I guess I'll have to make a NE or Rogue/Cat inorder to play in PVP realm again sad.gif

ohh yeah... with Felguard & Antena dog I can't, holy priest die to anything melee. but I always win succy girl/ imp /no pet (demonic sacrificed I guess) lock. coz nub lock's dot dot fear dot dot charm dot dot shadow bolt tactic won't work.

Have you pvp with a holy priest seems unkillable before? I means in 1v1.

I second this, unless the lock is drunk or is experiencing serious lag issues. IMO, lock seriously wins all except BM hunters. My afflic lock wins almost all duels with non twinks non hunters post lv40. I have 2 instant fear/howl. Cases where I lost the duel is against of course BM spec hunters. All they need to do is make their pets big and red and it's GG. Against fire mages who managed to sheep and 2 shot me. Against UD rogues who resisted/break fear and stun locked like no tomorrow. All others is fear dot dot and GG. Against warriors in berserker mode = CoE dot dot run around and wait until they drop.

Were you wearing a lot of shadow resist gears when playing against a lock? Or else I have no idea how a holy priest can win against a lock.
*
Hmm... ok... let say in bg u met a holy priest, how long it took you to kill one assuming he is full mana?? i mean ofcourse equal gear. I'm a Alliance Priest I pvp horde most of the time (horde is considered the better pvper in general right? so I'm not playing with Drunk/lag lock ALL THE TIME).

my secret to beat all mana usage class?? even hunter... except melee mana user i.e. enchantment shammy and even warlock (if he bring out Antena Dog and Fel Guard then most of the time GG for me).

1- Shield, Renew on me
2- Shadow word: Pain
3- Mana Burn if against healer
or
4- Step in Melee (using a 2H staff) for non-healer
5- Hit fear when timer is up. Gheal to full Health recast renew/shield

I'm sure you have a holy priest on your server, If the way they pvp is Holyfire + Smite then is GG for him, but try to ask him to self heal and see if you can dot dot fear kill him, I'm sure by the time u oom he still have 30% of his mana and as the deminishing return of fear and charm, your next fear and charm will only affect him 2~3sec. if you are afflict lock? I'm not worried, with succy? I'm not worried... I'm just affraid you have fel puppy/guard. cause your dot dot fear won't work on a priest. Try it, but don't whine in Offical forum to nerf priest pls sad.gif

However against warrior/rogue/cat is 100% gg for me.

Just discuss but dun flame please.

Yep agree with no flaming. BTW, my first main and the ONLY character that I've brought to raid is a holy priest.

You kept saying that dot dot fear don't work, why?

OK, let's say you have fear ward. But I have Death coil and howl of teror, which are NOT fears. As a BE, I have an AOE silence too. Say I don't use fear coz you will resist all fears that I cast due to fear ward, then I cast howl of terror when you first try to heal yourself, shadow bolt, renew dots cast death coil when you try to heal 2nd time (by this time you should be dead already). Bear in mind that all this time my succubus is pounding on you. Say if you're still alive and still try to heal, I use the BE AOE silence skill. I believe that all this can happen within 30 seconds so all you can do is fear me once but I have the trinket. Say you're STILL alive, succubus can always charm.  Thing here is not about how long I get to fear you but I fear to INTERRUPT your self heal. But of course if against 1 vs 1 duel with a caster, I'll always get my fel pup out. Although, against a mage, most of the time my holy priest get to outheal his/her mana.

If you're not a dwarf then fear dot dot fear bye bye. Would love to know how my holy priest can win a lock.

QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Mar 20 2007, 02:46 AM)
howl of terror is a fear doh.gif

also, unless ur shadowbolt is ruin/imp sb proc enabled having nightfall/backlash proc back to back crits, ur not gonna 2-3 shot priests like you do pre-bc with SM/conflag build locks used to do. and so long they get as much as ONE second, they can heal the crap outta you. dont forget, stamina cost is reduced and priests have a ton more survivability than you.

they're mana DEFINATELY can outlast you. the only offset is mana drain on priest, but if the priest spec a wee bit in shadows for silence, ur done.

the only warlock that has an ABSOLUTE chance to gurantee kill healing/holy priests in any situation is UA specced locks with felhunter out, any other spec/setting locks just dont have that capability.

but yea, this is holy priest, wait till the priest walks the dark path... kek!
*
Ah... Afflic Lock and Succy, btw succy dps sucks, like I said I'll be using shield + renew, your only thread to me is Shadow bolt which is a 3.5 sec cast since u are not desto (I'm assuming u used cookie cutter spec, given its 3 sec I can flash heal x2), cause all your dot is dispellable, and I guarantee u that u can't just kill me with shadow bolt when I was feared, I'm sure u noticed the more u fear the more its easier to break right? btw ur succy can't distrupt my spell casting because we are holy =)

So I SW:P on you and walk towards you and start circling and melee on you (WOW bug every melee exploit when fight against caster, you can't fear/shadow bolt me when I 'walk thru you'), so your option is howl/deathcoil (man deathcoil should be ban in pvp >"<), so dun imagine that I'm standing there exchanging smite/ holyfire/selfheal with a lock, instead I'm fighting you when I have shield/renew on me, and you have shadow word: pain on you, so when my fear up I blow it and heal my self to full and manaburn you (why I melee there is another reason, because of 5 sec mana regen rule, when I wait for the next fear I'll gain atleast 1k mana before i resume my casting routine)

So... in all Lock with Succy is ok, Lock with Fel Puppy and Fel Guard is too much for me, lock is still one of the best PvPer when you have the right pet up, If you go to Priest Forum you'll noticed no one... I mean NO ONE whine about pvp, we just whine about pally/druid out heal us... thats true from a holy priest cry.gif

are u basing that on pure theory or what? have u forgotten destro warlocks have nether prot?

We are talking about afflic lock, and desto lock = fire mage = easy. (i must assumed you use non-doggy pet... else u win)

And no... its not based on theory, based on pvp in bg, and in bg most lock don't use puppy.

Like I said... try to challenge a holy priest and try to burn them down... to be fair dun bring out fel puppy use other pet.

And by theory... I dun understand how someone can walk thru u cancel your casting >"<

btw no flaming. no theorycraft, lets keep this post clean smile.gif

Actually I didn't see any of your previus post, other than priest can't beat a lock - period.

Since you are a desto lock with fel puppy you get a very high chance to win a holy priest, my previous post mentioned specifically I can only win non-puppy and non-fel guard lock.

I've already gimped myself to put into situation like 1v1, the true strength of holy priest lies in grp pvp. 2v2 3v3 5v5 holy priest plays a major roles and will influent the result.

As Desto Lock with Fel Puppy... How many time you pwnd by rogue post TBC? not flaming you, I just want to know, if you can beat rogue then you are the indeed best pvp in WOW.

Edit: yep I just read your post, so I do agreed with fel puppy u can silence and disenchant my only advantage and you win smile.gif

While you run around and melee me, dont expect me to be trying to cast shadowbolt. I can melee and drain life (70% chance of not being interrupted with fel concentration). You cannot dispel my Curses. I can CoA first then when your hp goes down to below 50% I will put a CoT = 3 sec flash heal. When you first try to heal, death coil = interrupt your heal. 2nd time try to heal (with CoT on you) succy charm and interrupt your heal while I cast SB. 3rd time try to heal, Arcane Torrent to interrupt and silence u for 2 secs while I cast a 2nd SB.

And I'm not sure what do you mean by you being holy and succy don't disrupt your spell casting, don't think you're immune to charm like warriors in berserker? Oh and when you 1st fear and heal, we can use trinket to break fear then death coil/arcane torrent. If you're not a dwarf then all the better. Fear dot dot SB fear dot dot SB (yes I know about diminishing returns in fear but before you can be immune to it you're already dead). I have taken down countless shaman and rogues with this technique and I don't believe that a holy priest will have more stamina than a rogue.

edit: oh and UA is Affliction tree talent spell. Dispel that and its GG.
*
ohmy.gif ohmy.gif ohmy.gif my shield + renew is instant... your drainlife is dispellable and dispel = low mana cost than your drain life... btw dispell also instant... all the spell I mentioned I'll cast is instant, I'll only Gheal / flash heal when you try to do shadow bolt or when I feared you.

Like I said if you think that I'm like ordinary priest just stand there self heal and you are wrong... it will become a instant cast war, you can only hope your corrupt to proc night fall on 4%, coz drainlife is dispellable and its expensive for you to recast too. Why do you think I'll stand there cast flash heal or anything? I'm a pvp priest I know very well what you can do, a mage will counter, a rogue will kick, a pally will stunt, a warrior will (depent on spec MS/SS/shout), Shaman will ES, Shadow Priest will silent, druid will change into cat and meow meow, hunter will glad that you stand there and cast heal so he can run to an optimum distance and pew pew...

About curse... yes I can't dispell, so choose carefully what curse u wanna put. CoA < Renew and shield, about your fear and SB, use all u can before I walk thru you. I can't believe you didn't notice when rogue/ warrior/ shammy/ pally circle & walk thru you all your non instant spell is uncastable, therefore blizz gave you deathcoil as instant to make a distance.

Sigh... I'm just share my experience on how holy priest can beat lock but since no one appreciate I'll just keep it to myself then, if in the future when u see a holy priest come up to you and start melee in bg, that might be me smile.gif smile.gif

How ever I find it imposible to beat rogue/warrior/melee shammy/cat druid as holy, any other holy priest have any experience please share with me please rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

holy priest in 2v2 , 3v3 ? theres a reason why there aren't holy priests in the top of that bracket , i hope you know why
even in 5v5 i'd take a disc priest over holy anyday
a holy priests strength is in PVE , and to a certain extent BG pvp

and in a 1v1 situation .... there arent many classes that would lose to a holy priest , but i can assure u destruction locks and fire mages arent one of them
*
I doubt it =)

I have a mage too, if you can sheep & 3 shot me with all your cool down then its fine, but if the pyro & POM/pyro doesn't crit then my chances of winning will be very high laugh.gif

The reason for disc priest? Pain suppression offcourse, but I find 'improved deathform' can do the same thing too and in dead form u can't be distrupted/dispell and u can heal your team member freely. however if you are fully disc. you bound to be sheep/silent/dispell/counterspell until your pain suppression timer is up. Most of the top 5v5 grp have a priest, but what spec I didn't check =P

btw I'm 30/31/0 so I'm heavily disc. too thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

in pure organized high end arena/pvp, the only thing that really matters in terms of equipment build up is stamina and resilience. TRY taking ur shots at a post 200 resi character. and switch back to a character with 0 resilience. for pure testing purposes you can even try rank 1's DD's to get a bigger idea on the difference.

spell dmg/ap/stats (excluding stamina) is for pve ala dmg meters. in pvp, especially organized rated high end arenas, its not who that deals the biggest dmg, hell EVERYONE CAN DO THAT WITH EASE. its who that can survive the most and ultimately be victorious in the match.
*
thats Holy Priest do best and I just offered a solution to any holy priest don't wanna be a sitting duck/ Free HKs.

Anyway we can all share our pvp experience and be a better player, in the end I guess its all based on players skill, just like playing street fighter, I used Ken alot and I once had an epic 100+ straigh win of my life record. But someother people using Ken just lose misarable. Sometime it just based on player skill and we need to put ourself in the actual scenario.

About fire mage, if he dun CS/Sheep and I dun Fear/Dispell, just exchanging damage spell and heal I'm very confident holy priest will out heal any of mage damage. Ofcourse we gotta makesure both are in Pre Kara Gear (primal mooncloth for priest / spellfire for mage). I got -10% spell damge and +15% resist against fear/stun/charm.

P.S. (in the raid I tend not to waste DKP on pure healing gear too much, I'd like to get +damage gear so I can farm with smite & holyfire, if I said holy out dps shadow howmany of u will believes me? =P Anyway my guild still doing Kara and hasn't clear it, I guess no one in my server clear Kara yet)

So about the circling thingy... I noticed recently when they walk thru u u immediate got the message "target must be infront of u"... unlike previously u still get to turn around and hope it to resolve when u manage to face your opponent.

even if you CAN outdps a shadow priest , i'd take a shadow priest over a dps-ing holy priest anyday
misery + VE + VT provides more utility than you can imagine
and pray tell , is the reason why you outdps shadow priests because of repeated insta-smites ?

as for fire mages , yes it would be pretty hard out-dpsing your healing with pom/ renew up as well as constant healing
but dont u think thats kinda caveman style ?
with a deep fire build , talking bout no ap/ pom , both parties utilizing all cooldowns , a fire mage would stomp all over a holy priest if u tried to outheal it
impact / ignite / counterspell / dragon's breath > your heals

Yep... me will to do the same too, but I mentioned thats for my solo farming purposes, I got a mage alt/main to make water for myself so water is not an issues I just wanna burn down mobs ASAP. As in a grp no one will let me dps just heal sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif

Holy out dps shadow when they obtained 700+ damage gear, shadow do not get much bonuses from damage gear because of only MB is critable and its 1.5 sec cast means you get only about 1/2 of your total +dmg gear, MF get penalty to +damage because of snare effect. however smite scale very well with +damage and holy/disc. has very good crit boost talent. The new holy nightfall is nice when proc, but it's not required here.

I remember there is many holy vs shadow dps post in the forum before, go read it out, end game holy dps > shadow. however like you said... no one wants a dps disc/holy priest, just like no matter how hard OOM kin argued in their forum that they can out dps mage & warlock, but no one wanted an OOM kin/ Disc.Holy Smite priest in a grp. Also Holy priest pvp still lose to most of the class out there. (i.e. rogue & warrior which is more than 50% of the population)

Woot!!! someone finally agreed holy priest can out heal firemage dps, thats all i need to prove, as someone mentioned mage can out dps a holy priest's heal. As for pvp. I know, I'll step in melee. and ofcourse I'll dispell and fear and heal to full when needed, but most of the time I dun have to fear/manaburn, when I melee and walk thru them its GG for them, some went desperate and spam AE... thats when I spam holy nova for some quick dps+heals... I really have no issue fighting mage here...

I'm glad so much of us interested in pvp technique here, should I create a 'How to beat xxx' topic? so everyone can share with us their experience when someone have problems fighting xxx.

Hmmm... can I ask?? If I said pre BC Soul Link Warlock can tank Onyxia... Howmany here will said I'm carzy?? maybe we are not ready to hear about holy priest win most mana usage class/ holy out dps shadow endgame / warlock tank Onyxia kind of stuff here sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

and i can tell you i have never seen a GOOD warlock be it destro or affliction lose to a holy priest. let's put aside ua locks, they eat holy priests for breakfasts... but for destro locks, nope... not under any circumstances should they lose to a holy priest, a disc priest "maybe" but not a holy priest... first rule of the lock book, take a felhunter against a priest. no matter what spec they are. how are u in any way gona beat a destro priest with 30% proc chance to immunity to shadow and shadow ward? a nicely geared 70 destro priest in blues can easily get 20% crit chance on their destruction spells, and i'd say that's a pretty good amount. so what spells are u left with? holy? ur open to being spell locked if u cast a holy spell too long and even a smite takes 2.5 secs to cast....

from my experience i have never gone oom while playing my lock (which is affliction) even when goin against 2 v 1 , where one of them is a holy priest.
*
like I said in BG and in solo gank spot, I never met a lock with fel puppy, I think the chances you meet a holy priest wonder in bg/outdoor = 1%? a rogue hide behind a bush and jump on you = 60%? (its true... i got ganked by rogue the most) sad.gif

I guess no one even bother to read how I beat mage/lock just jump to Priest can't beat lock/mage. sigh... I kept saying a priest cast smite 1v1 is a dead priest but no one reads em... whatever then, I believe no one here actually plays a priest, anyway goodluck ganking priest. smile.gif

However Quaz mentioned ppl tank Onyxia Nakedly? I'm not sure how that can be done? 0 Armor and 0 FR? please let me know how they do that? if he is naked how much HP he has? won't Onyx just 1~2 shot him?
