Healer Rotation
This rotation guide should help give a basic understanding of what to do, what's most important, and how to prioritize Holy Priest abilities and cooldowns.
Spell Arsenal
Normal Healing
- Holy Word: Serenity (on player needing heals)
- Holy Word: Sanctify (when group needs healing)
- Circle of Healing (when 3+ allies needs healing)
- Prayer of Mending (when minimal healing needed)
- Power Word: Life (for emergencies)
- Divine Star (when group needs healing)
- Heal and Flash Heal (alternate for healing)
When nothing else to do, Smite!
Raid Healing
- Divine Word (before Holy Word: Sanctify when possible)
- Holy Word: Sanctify (for group of players)
- Holy Word: Serenity (for one player)
- Power Word: Life (as needed)
- Circle of Healing (for large group of players)
- Prayer of Mending (use often)
- Prayer of Healing (for general raid healing)
- Flash Heal (for healing one player)
When nothing else to do, Smite! Also, for raid environments it's usually best to avoid using Renew, Power Word: Shield, and Holy Nova.
Cooldowns
- Divine Hymn (for big raid heal)
- Symbol of Hope (for when needing mana)
- Guardian Spirit (when in a pinch)
- Holy Word: Salvation (for lots of raid damage [if talented])
