Over time the other 2 trees, Holy and Disc, have had good upgrades as far as dps output, which helps a ton with leveling quickly.
But take into account whether you are racing to 80 as fast as you can, or trying to learn your class, thru differnt specs, and having fun along the way
I know the grind to 80 is long at times, ive done is (almost 3rd time now) haha, im priest is 78 currently.
I went shadow till 40, then went Holy and never looked back. (yes i know its the opposite of everyone else , lvl 40 you get shadow form)
But i will tell you, leveling Holy nowadays isnt much harder than shadow. Its just a diff. style of playing.
The main reason i went Holy was becuase I like being able to get groups whenever i wanted, unlike many DPS that sit around and wait for groups to form. as a healer your in demand, and always will be.
Funny twist to my priest thou.
After being holy for so long, I almost forgot what it felt like to be shadow again.
So when dual specs came out, I specced Holy and Shadow. Perfect combo. Leveling its easy and groups are no issue.
Whatever you do, pick the spec or class that best suits your playing style, Trust me there is nothing worse than getting to 80 and hating your character lol
Since your still at a low level, i advise you, as a noob, to test out other classes as well.
If this is your first mmorpg, its good to gather up on diff. classes.
I think a good chunk of the wow community came from other games, and had ideas already on which classes suit them best.
Anyways,
Hope this helps in any way, haha.
See you in Northend soon enough fellow priest.
Ciao
