Priest PvP Overview

Priests have the ability to both heal and deal damage in a PvP environment. Having both a damage-dealing-focused build, as well as a healing-focused build, Priests can be useful in nearly any PvP scenario.

When choosing to PvP as a Priest, you will need to pick between ShadowShadow, a damage-oriented build, or HolyHoly, a healing- and support-focused build. Both specs have their weaknesses and strengths, as well as their specific synergies depending on who else you are playing with.

Listed below are links to our guides made specifically for HolyHoly and ShadowShadow PvP. Inside these guides we will go over the optimal specialization, best gear, and some tips and tricks on how to get the most out of your character in PvP scenarios.

Macros and Addons

Macros and Addons can greatly benefit your gameplay, especially in a high-paced environment like PvP where no two encounters are the exact same. Macros specifically can lessen the time it takes you to perform an action by combining two commands into a single button. Addons can increase the amount of information you are receiving in order to be able to better make a decision as to what your next move should be. Listed below are our guides for Priest-specific Addons and Macros; most of these are targeted towards PvE but can also be quite useful for PvP.
