Bug description: The spell should prioritize players without atonement over the ones that already have it and over pets. If every target has atonement, only then it will apply it to pets/minions. Same with the healing, it should prioritize players over pets, definitely.

This is the only spammable AOE spell that Discipline priests have access to. Priority: High(because it's a main spell, not a secondary one). In its current state, it's a huge disappointment to both Discipline raid and PvP Healing because it prioritizes pets and full HP players or players that already have atonement over the lower ones or the ones without atonement.

The only AoE heal that explicitly chooses the lowest-health of all damaged targets is Wild Growth.

--Power Word: Radiance favor players without Atonement, then players with Atonement, then non-players.

So what I understand is that PWR should just prioritize players without Atonement and not " lower health targets over the full or with more HP than the lower ones",

Yeah, my mistake there, however, I've found a decent post that explains how it should work:

It states: Power Word: Radiance works as such: It both heals and applies atonement to the target it was cast on and then also heals and applies atonement to the 2 nearest targets without active atonement. Unless all possible targets already have atonement - then it chooses the 2 closest targets to the target you cast the spell on.
It doesn't change the fact that this is currently the most gamebreaking bug for discipline priests in both PvE and PvP.


Seyrox, can you confirm this? I think that there are already enough proofs.

[Seyrox]

Yes, they are, but I need to test it-game to see if this is really the case. Just have patience.

Could you please confirm this a bit faster? This one is really important and Quicksand needs to fix it as soon as he can. It's the main & easiest way of spreading atonement in raids or PvP on the entire group / raid.

It now prioritizes players without atonement > players > other units without atonement > everything else that's left
