Circle of healing vs holy nova

[luxlunae]

For pvp shield spam is a must must must, so is fast mass dispel. Also super convenient for your purposes will be divine aegis, which will proc you lots of little shields as you holy nova your group.

don't forget to prayer of mending a lot! (more like whenever its on cooldown than whenever it wears off a lot)

My main is a priest and I've played around with holy in BGs but as an OMG STOP THE MULTIBOXER target, you really need your healer to be as sturdy as possible, and that means going disc.

holy nova-694 mana no cooldown about 1800 healing in my gear for this test
coh-729 mana, 6 second cooldown (and 6 seconds is a LONNNNNNNG time in pvp). about 2400 healing
