Oh as a shadow priest in TBC you hit me right in the feels.
Shadow was so great for levelling but shit for healing. And holy was great for healing but shit for solo play.
Towards the end of TBC I was doing disc and having a blast as a squishy healer in PvP.

To be fair thats sort of the point of RPGs, people fill different roles but not all roles.

Yeah…wish they would’ve come out with dual specs earlier. Would’ve made leveling my priest much more fun…a holy priest was a slow and boring process in solo PvE but a shadow priest was boring in dungeons. And I liked doing both.

I think the punishment for changing specs was just unbalanced. In vanilla it was an absurd amount of gold. We had funds for our healers and tanks, and many of them just played alts outside of raids.
Something about the difficulty of it all I think breeds companionship. Whatever we have now is pretty broken.
