The Priest can even take control of humanoid monsters at higher character levels.As suggested, this was what Blizzard had intended on a Priest class being the current version on your priest is a lot different and at times not the top healer depending on which end game raid boss one might be fighting.While all Priest's Holy and Shadow are capable of healing on an even footing for the most part, there is a viable benefit to going Holy and Discipline specced over a full Shadow specced priest build.First and foremost, the benefit of the available talents is very important.
