Unfortunately, I raid with my Priest in an alt/pug situation and I am not able to get peopel to click the lightwell as I would like them to do.
Lightspring is the go to glyph for me atleast, but swapping mains in MoP I think I am going to scrap it and get the extra charges on my LW.

Important to comment that now Lightspring and Lightwell heal for identical amounts. The only differential is the ‘on click’ demand that LW has vs LS’s sub 50% HP trigger.

Negative. However, in the current build Lightspring heals for MORE than Lightwell. So the choice of one over the other is less flexible, and really is going to depend on the encounter (ie. Less opportunities to heal <50% and more to just click)

Did a Lightspring party ever happen? Is the SP still the same between Lightwell and Lightspring on this beta build?

I say we have a Lightspring Party. We need to get 17 people to join on the Beta (US PvE server, Lost Isle) and see if we Glyph Lightwell, Glyph Lightspring and get 17 charges to go out around the same time. I’ll be on as Darkener. Say tomorrw (Thursday May 31) at 8:00pm Eastern?

@Darkener – Interesting. It appears to have updated since my original testing/video. As I have video (I havent uploaded) with 2 locks lifetapping and it being on CD between heals between the two. Not to mention it has a different animation… far less shiny than this new one you’ve linked!

Tested the Lightspring out and it seems that the cool down is per player, so it will send out multiple charges around the same time (probably as it scans from 0 yards to 20 yards).

Check out the example video I just made with two targets:

The new Lightspring is very usefull in certain situations where a player takes a big hit periodically/sporadically over time whereas the old Lightwell works out better in situations where everyone takes a hit at the same time. One isn’t better than the other, it’s situational. I think both have a place in the Holy Priest’s toolbox, and as for the elitist Lightspring haters, well, Dominate Mind!
