General Information

On this page, we present you with the best gems and enchants for a Discipline Priest in World of Warcraft Battle for Azeroth 8.0.1. We also list the best consumables (food, flasks, and potions) and profession-specific perks.

About Our Author

This guide is written and maintained by Mend, admin and editor at Focused Will (join them on Discord or read their Blog for healing Priests) and is reviewed by the staff at Focused Will. You can follow Mend on Twitter or Twitch.

1. Gems for Discipline Priests

You should use Kraken's Eye of Intellect in one socket, and Quick Owlseye (or the cheaper Quick Golden Beryl) in all other sockets.

2. Enchants for Discipline Priests

Slot	Enchantment
Rings	Enchant Ring - Pact of Haste Enchant Ring - Seal of Haste (cheaper)
Weapon	Enchant Weapon - Quick Navigation

3. Consumables for Discipline Priests

Flask of Endless Fathoms should be used for raids along with Battle Potion of Intellect and Potion of Replenishment as your potions of choice. The DPS potion can optionally be used as a pre-pot at the beginning of the fight where healing is not very intense, while your Potion of Replenishment is a one time usage potion per fight where you can restore Mana at the cost of not being able to cast or move while the effect lasts.

You should eat from the Bountiful Captain's Feast (or the cheaper Galley Banquet) when possible, and otherwise Haste food ( Swamp Fish 'n Chips or the cheaper Ravenberry Tarts).

Coastal Healing Potion can be used alongside Healthstones. Coastal Mana Potion can also be used once per fight as an instant Mana restore.

If you can afford it, you should use Battle-Scarred Augment Runes to increase your primary stat. Since there is a finite amount of these runes available, you should make sure to use them wisely and to stock up on them for when you need them.
