re: cataclysm - new priest talents and spells

0
Some neat new talents and spells have been shown in the latest Beta version of cataclysm.

Specifically the Holy tree has been revamped with chakra and possibly sanctuary. [not the paladin talent]

Quote:
Chakra
Instant, 1 min cooldown
When activated, your next Heal, Renew, Prayer of Healing or Smite spell will put you into a corresponding Chakra state. Lasts for 30 sec.
Heal -- Increases the critical effect chance of your Heal spell by 10%, and your Heal refreshes the duration of your Renew on the target.
Renew -- Increases the healing done by your Renew spell by 10%, and reduces the global cooldown of your Renew by 0.5 sec.
Prayer of Healing -- Increases the healing done by your area of effect spells by 10% and reduces the cooldown of your Circle of Healing by 2 sec.
Smite -- Increases your total damage done by Shadow and Holy spells by 15%.

Quote:
Sanctuary
5 min cooldown
You sanctify the ground, causing all allies to be healed for 525 to 619 every 2 sec and have all threat from enemies reduced by 90%. Enemies within the sanctuary who attack allied targets within the sanctuary will heal the targets for 5% of their total health instead of dealing damage. Lasts for 15 sec.


Quote:
Leap of Faith
32% of base mana 30 yd range
1.5 min cooldown
You pull the spirit of the friendly party or raid target to you, instantly moving them directly in front of you.


Imagine gripping some dps idiot - reducing their threat - and bulk healing them and anyone standing near you...

check out this great blog from an experienced priest in beta:

remains to be seen what will happens with disc as they seem to be working more on that spec now as well. but there are the new smite fest talents atonement and evangalism and archangel

Quote:
Atonement (3 ranks) - When you deal damage with Smite, you instantly heal a nearby low-health friendly target within 40 yards equal to 15/30/45% of the damage dealt.


Quote:
Evangelism (2 ranks available) - When you cast Smite you gain Evangelism, increasing the damage done by your Smite, Holy Fire, Holy Nova and Penance spells by 2/4% and reducing the mana cost of those spells by 3/6% for 15 seconds. Stacks up to 5 times.


Quote:
Archangel (1 rank available) - Consumes your Evangelism effects, instantly restoring 3% of your total mana and increasing your healing done by 3% for each stack. Also allows you to channel Penance while moving. Lasts 18 seconds.


and the new barrier

Quote:
Power Word: Barrier (1 rank available) - Requires 2 points in Improved Power Word: Shield - 13383 Mana - 40 yd range - 0.5 sec cast - 3 min cooldown - Summons a holy barrier on the target location that absorbs 293 damage done to party or raid members within it each time they take damage. While within the barrier, spellcasting will not be interrupted by damage. The barrier lasts for 15 seconds or until it absorbs 1955 damage.

The Shadow tree has some new fun stuff like the new Shadowy Apparition and Paralysis

Quote:
Shadowy Apparition Rank 3
When you deal periodic damage with your Shadow Word: Pain, you have an 6% chance to summon a shadow version of yourself which will slowly move towards a target which is afflicted by your Shadow Word: Pain. Once reaching the target, it will instantly deal damage equal to 15% of your Mind Blasts damage.

While moving, the chance to summon the shadowy apparation is increased to 60%.

extra note from www.shadowpriest.com:
Quote:
Shadowy Apparition now actually cause an image of yourself to walk to the target. Interestingly enough, if your images dont actually reach the target before its dead, they hang out with you indefinately untill you attack a new target.


Quote:
Paralysis:
When you critically hit with MB you cause the target to be unable to move for 2/4 secs.
