So hate me all you want fellow disc priests. If you have any sense about you and love this class/spec, then you will agree with me when I say this spell needs to be nerfed dramatically...I will die of boredom and sheer embarrassment that I am literally spamming one button the entire raid. A 4 year old could do this and be great at it. So you say to just use other healing spells instead? It is hard to when that stupid button is always there awaiting my ferocious beating. Knowing that it will rise me to the top of the charts in no time. Here are some screenshots of a normal SOO Garrosh I did last night, where I suggested the raid stay stacked the entire fight. I know this is kind of a perfect fight for the holy nova spam but every other fight is the same, topping charts dramatically...
Now if there is some explanation like maybe this is intended for now and will change as the raids come out and we progress to 100...but for now I am terribly bored of my priest. In dungeons I will challenge myself and NOT use nova once..I still do fine of course because our mana is now infinite, which is another really strange and not so fun change...I have been a disc/holy priest for over 5 years now and I know this is the beginning of a huge patch/xpac and the whole number crunch change was a must, but if this is how disc is going to be from now on then I will happily play another spec/char. And to be honest in dungeons when I do not use nova, it is actually pretty fun, other then the infinite mana, I still can retain some disc healing styles from MoP, I can still get in some atonement healing etc...
I am 559 ilvl, so nothing special, yet you see what I'm talking about

^^Yes I did throw on the legendary mace before fight and blanketed the raid with the shield proc with nova
