Raid disc is a mana battery and single-target shield bot — Power Infusion on a warlock is worth more than your own casts some fights, so intellect and MP5 rank unusually high next to +healing.

Discipline Priest PvE FAQ

Where does Discipline Priest Phase 5 BiS come from?

From the gear worn by 204 top-ranked Discipline Priest healing parses on Warcraft Logs during Phase 5 (Sunwell Plateau), aggregated per slot — what high parsers actually equip, not a spreadsheet ideal.

What are the highest-consensus Discipline Priest items in Phase 5?

Wand of Cleansing Light (85%), Brooch of Nature's Mercy (72%), Boots of Absolution (69%). When an item sits above ~70% among top parsers, treat it as the priority drop to chase.

Should I follow this list exactly for Phase 5?

Use it as a loot-priority guide, not a checklist — expand each slot's alternatives, because second-choice items are often within a few percent and drop from entirely different bosses in Sunwell Plateau.
