Am I missing something here or?

Hey guys, would appreciate if you'd take the time to have a look at this:

Above is the talent spec of a priest I'm 2v2ing a bit with atm. Now maybe I'm missing something here because I'm no expert on priests, but wouldn't it be better to take the points out of silent resolve and put them into mental strength and power infusion?

Just seems to me that the -threat is useless (he doesn't PvE at all) and 16% resistance to dispel effects seems a bit rubbish compared to 6% more mana and a 20% healing/damage boost for 15 seconds every 2 minutes.

Being deep Disc without power infusion is surprising, however priests live by their buffs and any protection you can afford them is nice.

I don't PvP with Silent Resolve since I feel I can't spare the points, but sometimes I wish I had it.

Here's a more PvP-fitting adaptation of that Priest's build.

I can see why people don't take it - it's not REALLY worth 6 points.

Is the extra 250 damage your shield aborbs worth more to you than SR? The extra 300hp from your (usually purged) fort? Honestly you could have the points but it's just personal discretion. I personally don't feel that 300hp and 250 shield damage absorbed is worth 5 points but 20% dispel resist is. YMMV.

The general consensus is that SR is nice, but it costs too much. Bliz really should change this talent to a 3 point talent, increase it to 30%-50%, like all the other classes, or just build it into the friken priest.

It's nice, but SR isn't worth it. Right now, your priest should probably be BR until 2.3 anyway.
