SL: Disc Priest VS HPal

Hello adventurers, I solicit your knowledge and advices!
I know there are already many posts about this subject, I still wanted to ask about it on this topic. No answer on the internet suits my request.
Concretely, I hesitate between Holy Paladin and discipline Priest. I played both classes for a while, up to mm + 10 at least, 1200cc in 2v2 (disc) arena and love them both, but I have to make a decision.
I am not a tryharder, I do mythics, raiding and pvp. I do not plan to do +15 keys, nor mm raids.
I play with friends who often make mistakes in dungeons: in disci it is sometimes difficult to deal with unforeseen damage.
I personally find that this is not an easy spec to play properly, and I wonder if it’s worth the serious dedication to what it will bring me to my level (I await your feedback at this level there =) ). In Hpal, there are sometimes slow phases between CDs and this is one of my negatives, I sometimes find the gameplay monotonous, even if I find it fun.

I don’t plan on playing Retribution or Protection Paladin (I don’t really like their gameplay), but I do enjoy Shadow and Holy (which will probably tip the scales). While the meta is important to me, I play primarily for fun, and I don’t plan on switching classes every patch, so it’s a long-term choice.

I wanted to hear your opinions and feedback on these two specs. I’m sure it will help me choose.

Thank you :wink:

Sounds like you prefer priest overall, so you should play Priest. At the level you seem to play at, the meta is irrelevant. So you should play whats fun for you.

Disc is worthwile to invest time into, although it’s not at it’s best point right now, it’s still by far the most interesting healer to play in my opinion. If you play with friends that make a lot of mistakes you can always respec Holy for the dungeon, you’ll have more tools to keep them topped.

You could play kyrian paladin. Viable in pvp, good in M+ (though not as much dmg as venthyr) and fine in raid.
You could also just play holy priest which is perfectly fine for what you’re planing to do.
