I've been playing disc religiously since partway through ICC, when our disc priest left our guild. I hated it initially but eventually it grew on me. I actually liked it so much that even during the brief time that disc's performance felt a little lackluster compared to holy, I stuck to my guns and waited it out.
Now, ironically, I want to switch to holy at a time when disc is at it's peak! I think I'm mostly bored - it seems like disc is pretty easy to play well right now. I want a change, and a challenge (as much of a challenge as this game provides, anyway!)
I think I understand the basics for holy, but I'm getting some conflicting information around haste, and very little around spirit.
First, here is my armory (partially prepared for holy, but as I said I was disc so it's a mish-mash. Critique is appreciated.) http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...efina/advanced
I am not sure what to do about haste. Some sources say to get 12% while others say you only need 4-5%. Secondly, spirit; as disc I ran with very little spirit, about 9k with the meta gem. How much do I need as holy? You can see by my armory that I've increased it and while I have yet to really push my mana, I am thinking I have too much? (A little over 12k)
I currently raid in a 10 man, so that's probably important info. Basically, I want to be able to provide enough healing to make up for my lack of absorbs. I will be healing with a resto druid and sometimes a resto shaman.
Advice?

I should also mention that I am considering changing my gems (which are mostly crit) but I'm waiting to find out from you good people if I need to? I see a lot of holy priests are also stacking crit?
