Let's take a look at the PRO's vs CON'S
PRO HOLY VS DISC
+More raw healing
+Cooldowns (Guardian Spirit)
+Instant Chakraheal/Chastice/Sanctuary
+Speedshield
PRO's DISC vs HOLY
+MUCH better cooldowns, PS, PW:B, PI, IF
+Better Shields
+Lower cd on shield when healed
+Penance, usually get at least 2 ticks before kicked + easy to fake cast with
plus disc does more damage when switching to damage due to 15% int buff (you will want to MS/MB to not get locked out)
