Hey all you lovely priests,
I took a break from WoW for a few months, but now I'm back. Before the break, I was mainly a holy specced raid healer, with only a slight dabbling in disc for PvP. Now that I'm back and I sort of have to re-learn my character anyways, I'm thinking of trying Disc heals as a secondary spec.
What stats should I stack? I still have all my holy gear, which I can re-gem until I get some upgrades. You can check out my gear here:
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Twisting+Nether&cn=Kushielle&gn=The+Redemption (Please ignore the talent specs: my account got hacked and for some reason they not only stole all my stuff but respecced me shadow!)
If there is already a thread for this, I apologize, and please point me in the right direction. If you have any other tips for playing Disc, or even for playing Holy because I'm rather out of the loop (I'm still not sure if I should be stacking Spi or MP5 for my holy spec at this point. If you see any stats that are sorely lacking in my gear please let me know), I would greatly appreciate any feedback.
Cheers!

http://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=157584&p=2081462For holy spirit > mp5 due to
Holy Concentration, but you shouldn't need to go so far as to gem pure spirit gems in order to get it up. If you're going to keep playing holy alongside disc you won't need to feel bad using a Purified to activate meta rather than Royal.

Some simple more disc-orientated items which won't cost very much for you to craft are
this robe and
these. For disc, you really need more crit than you have already, so I'd try getting
this and
this from the ICC 5 mans. You also may very much want to replace your
snowflake for
this. I would also change the spell power +mp5 head and shoulder enchants to their spell power + crit counterparts. When you get enough
emblems of frost, I would purchase
this first, because cloaks are hard to replace and Volde's has a nice amount of crit on it.

Drape of the Violet Tower is probably the better of the two badge cloaks because Mp5 would be better for Discipline than Spirit is.

It's negligible, and if the OP has a holy
or shadow offspec (seeing as they have a current holy spec, this is likely), the spirit is more valuable simply because it's interchangable.

With similar stats to the other cloaks mentioned above,
Greatcloak of the Turned Champion is pretty great for Holy and Shadow, but I'm also rocking it as Discipline at the moment. It's a decent cloak for all 3 specs, in my opinion

Good call, Panik8. The Dreamwalker cloak and ToGC cloak are definitely better for all 3 specs than the 264 cloaks mentioned above. There's also yet
another cloak coming from Halion-25, and it's Heroic counterpart which will certainly be BiS for all casters.
