Author's Note
One of the WoW specializations I loved the most is discipline priest, so I tried to make a tribute to that specializacion with this Hero concept. Anduin Wrynn is a known priest from Warcraft universe and I think he fits very well with this thematic abilities. I hope you like this Hero concept and feel free to post feedback. Thanks you for reading!
This is a proper disc priest kit. Love it.
However, I would rather have Barrier as ulti instead of pain supp (and pain supp as talent). Barrier is so iconic for disc priests.
Barrier needs to be strong enough to have allies wanting to stand in there and turn a teamfight around.
What's the range you were thinking of for Penance? If its too short it could be disastrous, being rooted is never good, especially not for a squishy healer. The las thing any team wants is their support getting themselves killed.
As you said, Penance should have a long range similar to Hammer's Siege Mode. Holy Fire, Power Word: Shield and Pain Suppression have a standard AA range. Halo expands to a big area like Li Li's Jug of 1000 Cups.
[V 1.1 Update]
Some talents were not as good as the other talents on their respective tiers, so I made a few changes on them:
- Shield Discipline (Talent): also reduces the Mana cost of the next Power Word: Shield.
- Focused Will (Talent): gets a total rework to make it like a more powerful version of Spell Shield.
- Power Word: Fortitude (Talent): increased the reduction of Weakened Soul's duration from 3 to 6 seconds.
I like this a lot, I think Pain suppression could be on a slightly lower cooldown, say 40/50s at 75% reduction, otherwise at 60% i would say 90% reduction like on WoW would work just fine since you are only saving 1 target. Overall great concept, I like the atonement feel a lot.
First of all, thank you!
About Pain Suppression, now it has the same effect as Hardened Shield (lvl20 Talent of some Warriors: 75% damage reduction for 4s on 60s CD) but with the bonus that can be used on any allied Hero (not only yourself) and can be cast while stunned, so lowering its cooldown could make it too much powerful I think.
