I use it all the time since 4.0 hit. Not exactly sure why you wouldn't now given the current state.

I didn't take the 3 talent abilities, waste of pts

Pain Sup, IF etc



I also macro Power Infusion to go off whenever I cast Smite. The haste and reduced mana cost makes firing off 5 of them a breeze.

I usually run with a Mage friend, so when it's a good time, I'll give him the PI instead. Macro'ed a whisper to it so he knows it's coming. For one point, I think it's a great talent.

I can imagine Inner Focus becoming more necessary when "healing mana matters" in Cataclysm.

I get that the abilities have their uses, and could potentially make things more efficient....but not at the cost of a talent point, considering they're so few now as it is. Abilities like that should be procs.

Yah to get those 3, I actually skipped 3 points in Twin Disciplines (adds 6% to heals and damage.) I've always been a big fan of utility over everything else, so while my throughput is a bit lower (for direct heals as well as smite heals through Atonement) I am enjoying the other 3.

Well, other than Pain Suppression. I don't think I have ever had a need to use it, though it sure looks pretty.

lmfao, the funny thing is I ditched those 3 talents to get Twin Disciplines....I just felt the constant 6% bonus to damage and heals outweighed the cooldowns of the other abilities

Then I assume you took Inner Sanctum for +6% run speed?? 15% (ability) + 6% (talent) + 4% (enchant) = 25% permanent run speed buff, indoors and outdoors. Level 81+ is gonna rock!

I use renew as well.

I think only the old disc priest idiots who haven't read about the class changes still skip it.


I also use it glyphed and talented and it works just swell.
