Some very interesting reports floating around. For Holy Priests no more Chakras (YAAAAAYYYY!) CoH now a talent, Serenity the MOST POWERFUL HEAL IN THE GAME - so I am switching from Disc to Holy.
The Disc spec has also received some updates, but when you try and get your head around it, I think the healing priorities are more complex than ever. A good Disc Priest will master their talents and abilities to be just as formidable (PW:Shield is nerfed, so no more shield spamming) and for both specs, PoH is no longer group based - it hits 5 targets within 15 yards of your target. This was a pretty big part of my Disc rotation, but it's an easy change to adapt to. I think it's a good change, though. Healers don't usually dictate the way groups are set out.
Also, Atonement has been fixed! I stopped Atonement half way through the WoD campaign because it just wasn't worth it. Now it's only DPS unless you have the Atonement buff, and the healing is much better.
However, Holy Priests now have the new Epotheosis (I think that's the right spelling) which puts Holy Priests into a Holy Form to increase Serendipity by 200%. This is the main reason I want to go back to Holy, because it will be so much FUN! Of course, there's a lot more to take in, but I have enough info to make the decision and will fine tune things when I am at 110. In the meantime, Novi (and other healers if you are interested) here's a good video that wraps up most of the changes in Holy and Disc:
