Do you guys think that with the new talent burning vehemence that it should also have synergy with holy fires from divine word chastise? I was hoping to see that you would benefit from choosing to use divine word offensively, but this doesn’t seem to be the case.
Burning Vehemence only works on the direct damage portion of Holy Fire. The procs from Smite doesn’t cast Holy Fire on your target, it only apply the dot portion. So it makes sense that they don’t work together. Although i wish there was a way to spread the DoT somehow. For better synergy with Holy Nova.
It feels almost like an oversight that it only works on the direct damage. It makes it feel lackluster to press divine word into chastise when on bosses you’d use it on serenity for healing on tyrannical weeks etc.
Burning Vehemence is almost obsolete due to where it’s positioned. I can’t justify picking it in M+ due to losing out on the healing throughput talents. It should be made baseline and baked in to Holy Fire because even with it talented we still do way less DPS than Prevokers, Rdruids and Rshams.
Based on how talent changes are going I would doubt anything is going to happen to the priest talent tree. It’s all very disappointing where certain talent nodes are placed especially burning vehemence that make it a hard choice over other talents due to where they are rather than them actually be competitive.
