Holy T17 BIS

[mcbubble]

Here's a quick BIS list that I made.
If you're going for 4 piece (which I recommend...and which is in red below), then the best offpiece to take will be the Gauntlets.

Slot	Item	Boss
Helm	Helmet of Guiding Light	Kromag
Neck	Feldspars Control Chocker	Blast Furnace
Shoulders	Pauldrons of Guiding Light	Operator Thogar
Cloak	Barrage Dodger Cloak	Oregorger
Chest	Battleplate of Guiding Light	Flamebender Ka'graz
Bracers	Fleshmelter Bracer	Blast Furnace
Gauntlets	Gauntlets of Dramatic Blows	Hans'gar and Franzok
Belt	Uktars Belt of Chiming Rings	Iron Maidens
Pants	Legplates of Guiding Light	Blast Furnace
Boots	Iron Bellow Sabatons	Operator Thogar
Ring1	Firemenders Smoldering Signet	Operator Thogar
Ring2	Spellbound Runic Band of Infinite Preservations	Legendary
Trinket1	Ironspike Chew Toy	Beastlord Darmac
Trinket2	Auto Repairing Autoclave	Blackhand
Weapon	Fang of the Earth	Kromog
Offhand	Heart of the Clefthoof	Beastlord Darmac

Other options

Slot	Item	Boss
Neck (no spirit)	Gruuls Lip Ring	Gruul
Cloak (no spirit)	Runefrenzy Greatcloak	Kromog
Throughput Trinket	Goren Soul Repository	Oregorger
Gloves	Gauntlets of Guiding Light	Iron Maidens

Also, here's a very nice drop list:http://i.imgur.com/MDnpGMj.png

Yes, gloves are the offpiece.

Otherwise, spirit is definitely overvalued here. It's good of you dont have the 4piece but with it and divine purpose, you will start dropping it in favor of thoughput stat. That being said, we may not get 4 piece for a while, so bis list right now is kind of up in the air for me.

well, no one expects to have his bis list fullfilled after the first week.

BIS doesn't change on a weekly basis.
BIS is exactly what it stands for - Best In Slot

It's what you should aim for and/or bonus roll for...which is why I posted this.

Do we really want 4/4 as Holy though? I feel the bonuses are a little underwhelming and (at first) better allocated to other classes/specs whom are on the same token.

The procs give bonus free casts as if we had 3 HP, and with luck those procs can probably chain off each other, but you're going to be alternating a stationary AoE with a single-target heal (+ HoT if specced EF). And at that, AoE heals are really situational as well.

I'm probably looking at it the wrong way though, and I haven't progressed into Mythic HM (wooh 1/7 scrub) enough to know if I'd actually end up using LoD more frequently.

Yes we do want 4-set, but not before all the DPS on the same token as us already have it. Our set is better than the priest healer set though.

T17 on beta was kinda lucklaster and very situational. I play with EF+AW, so I don't usually spend my HP on LoD. With DP it had some great proc chains, but still... Needs to sees. LoD is kinda shit right now, isn't it?

I must have completely missed something, Divine purpose making its way back into the game?

I updated the loot table above so you can now see the loot via a hover over the link (plus I tried to make it more readable by putting it into a table).
Hope that helps!

What do you think about the ore~ int/crit proc trinket? Im usint atm the mythic spirit trinket from imperator and the heroic int from him too. I have like 1600 spirit.

With 4 pc you should be swimming in mana even on the longer fights. For BiS trinkets, I'd say Chewtoy and Soul Repository.

So here's a question: Until you get four piece - will you go SS or stick to EF?

So here's a question: Until you get four piece - will you go SS or stick to EF?

I cleared 9/10H running SS last night just for fun/experimenting/comparing.

Here's my take on Sacred Shield...

Sacred Shield is good for an encounter IF:
- At least 2 targets are taking constant/significant damage, bonus if there is a 3rd!
- Beacon healing isn't a massive % of your total healing
- Light of Dawn healing is very effective (raid is in constant 'injured' state)
- Lots of constant movement
- Preferably a shorter fight (having a hard time deciding if fight length really matters)

If ALL of those things are true, then SS+LoD can probably keep up with EF.

what about trinkiet from inscryption? and Ironspike Chew Toy will be better then crafted one ?
