Priests can die quickly if you're vs a heavy physical team, but got a very powerful fearbomb + mass dispel. I like to think priest is for offensive playstyle, paladin for more defensive.
I played with 2 different healers yesterday, one was a paladin, full s10 geared with the Ruthless shoulders (except weapons), and a priest with only 3,3 k resilience. Both had over 2000-21000 rating experience in RBG and arena. The paladin was lacking mobile healing, while the priest was throwing out insane heals while bein trained long enough for me to kill the other players.

Hex and Wind Shear on a target arena 1-2-3-4 macro is too much fun to tap!
