About Our Reviewer

This guide has been reviewed and approved Niphyr, a generally knowledgeable, long-time healing Priest and theorycrafter. You can follow him on Twitter.

1. Gems

You should use Saber's Eye of Intellect in one socket, and Masterful Shadowruby in all other sockets.

2. Enchants

Slot	Enchantment
Neck	Enchant Neck - Mark of the Ancient Priestess
Back	Enchant Cloak - Binding of Intellect Enchant Cloak - Word of Intellect (cheaper)
Rings	Enchant Ring - Binding of Mastery Enchant Ring - Word of Mastery (cheaper)

3. Consumables

Flask of the Whispered Pact should be used for raids along with Leytorrent Potion as your potions of choice. You can also use Potion of Prolonged Power as a DPS potion and to pre-pot at the beginning of the fight where healing is not very intense.

You should eat Lavish Suramar Feast for the buff to your Intellect (or the cheaper Hearty Feast if you cannot afford the +500 food).

Ancient Healing Potion can be used in place of Healthstones. Ancient Mana Potion can also be used once per fight as an instant Mana restore.

If you can afford it, you should also use the Legion augment rune: Defiled Augment Rune. Note that it now works in Mythic+ dungeons (it did not used to).
