Wig's Level 19 Twink Priest Guide
Stranglethorn Fishing Extravaganza Guide (http://www.mmopro.net/forums/wow-must-have-guides/2178-getting-ready-for-the-stranglethorn-fishing-extravaganza.html) by «Dimman» (http://www.mmopro.net/forums/members/-dimman-.html)[/URL]




Priests are amazingly strong healers at level 19. They are often the preferred healing class in Warsong Gulch. They have strong heals, but also an instant cast [URL="http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=6074"]HoT(Heal Over Time) (http://www.mmopro.net/forums/members/-dimman-.html) and bubble (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=600). Twink priests don't have the strongest DPS spells around, but their instant cast Shadow Word: Pain (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=970) can prevent rogues from stealthing or enemies from dropping combat.

Level 19 twinks will tell you that one of the most annoying forms of CC seen in this bracket is a priest's Psychic Scream (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=8122), an instant cast fear that can affect 2 enemies. Priests can also be an annoying opponent because of their Dispel Magic (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=527), an offensive and defensive spell. Nothing quite gets an enemy flag running group all riled up like a priest dispelling their swiftness potions, freeing their friends from crowd control attempts, and then fearing the flag carrier's guards.

Priests also provide the most popular twink buff, Power Word: Fortitude (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=1244).

I. Gear and Enchant Suggestions

The level 18 blues bought with honor and tokens are bought at the Warsong Gulch reward vendors. The Horde vendor (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=14754) is in The Barrens and the Alliance vendor (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=14753) is in Ashenvale. For Alliance, this vendor is out of the way, with lots of areas to discover between her and the boat at Darkshore. Watch your XP!

Are you level 19 already? and still need gear? Follow this guide:

Requirements:
* Your Main/Friend Running You(I personally prefer mages)

You stay outside the instance while the Main/Friend clears through the trash mobs(NOT BOSSES), when he gets to the boss, go to where he is.

Steps:
I. Make sure you have group loot on.
II. Aggro the boss with your twink.
III. Die from the boss BUT do Not release your spirit.
IV. Your main or your friend kills the boss.
V. Your main or your friend loots the boss.
VI. Need on twink, pass on main.

Head:
Lucky Fishing Hat (Fishing Tournament quest)
Green Tinted Goggles (Requires Engineering)
Shadow Goggles (Requires Engineering)

Enchants: Lesser Arcanum of Rumination, Lesser Arcanum of Constitution, Arcanum of Focus

The Lucky Fishing Hat is hands down the best in slot item, but it can take weeks to get. In the mean time, the engineering goggles are the only other head item with stats.

Neck:
Voice Amplification Modulator (BoE made from Engineering.)
Sentinel's Medallion(Alliance)/Scout's Medallion(Horde) (PvP Reward)
Thick Bronze Necklace (BoE made from Jewelcrafting.)

Shoulders:
Talbar Mantle (Quest(Horde (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=3369)-Alliance (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=3370)) in The Barrens.)
Ghostly Mantle (Horde only. Quest in Shadowfang Keep)
Tattered Dreadmist Mantle (BoA bought with Stone Keeper's Shards.)
Exquisite Sunderseer Mantle (BoA bought with Emblems of Heroism.)
Ritual Amicewith Resilience of the Scourge (World Drop. Enchant from level 60 Naxx 40 man instance.)

The Talbar Mantle is probably the most common twink shoulder, used by many classes. If you have the resources to spare, the BoA shoulders are an upgrade to the green shoulders.

Back:
Caretaker's Cape(Alliance)/Battle Healer's Cloak(Horde) (Bought with Honor and Warsong Gulch Tokens.)
Feyscale Cloak (Drops from Deviate Faerie Dragon (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=5912) in Wailing Caverns)
Miner's Cape (Drops from Miner Johnson (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=3586) in The Deadmines)

Enchants: +70 armor (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=20015),+10 Shadow Resist (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=13522)

Chest:
Tree Bark Jacket (BoE drop from Blackfathom Deeps.)
Inferno Robe (Horde only) (Quest (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=566) in Tauren Mill. Can be enchanted with TBC enchants.)
Robe of the Moccasin (Drops from Lord Cobrahn (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=3669) in Wailing Caverns)

Enchants: +100 HP (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=20026), +100 Mana (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=20028), +4 Stats (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=20025)
Inferno Robe can be enchanted with +15 resilience (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=33992), +6 stats (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=27960), +150 HP (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=27957), +15 spirit (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=33990)

Wrist:
Mindthrust Bracers (BoE drop from Shadowfang Keep)
Crystalline Cuffs (Drops from Taragaman the Hungerer (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=11520) in Ragefire Chasm)

Enchants: +15 Spell power (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=23802), +9 stamina (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=20011), +9 Spirit (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=20009),+7 Intellect (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=20008)

Gloves:
Magefist Gloves (BoE world drop)
Raven's Claws (Drops from Ravenclaw Regent (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=2283) in Silverpine Forest)
Jutebraid Gloves (Horde only. Quest reward (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=3514))
Gold-flecked Gloves/Serpent Gloves (Drops from Sneed (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=643) in The Deadmines/Lord Serpentis (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=3673) in Wailing Caverns)

Enchants: +16 Spellpower (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=25079)

Three of the gloves on this list are nearly identical. For pure healing, the Jutebraid Gloves/Gold-flecked Gloves/Serpent Gloves come out ahead, but for overall balance, Magefist Gloves win.

Belt:
Keller's Girdle (BoE world drop)
Greenweave Sash/Shimmering Sash (BoE world drop)

Legs:
Darkweave Breeches (BoE world drop)
Shimmering Trousers (BoE world drop)

Boots:
Nat Pagle's Extreme Anglin' Boots with Boar's Speed (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=34008) (Fishing tournament quest and enchantable with TBC enchants.)
Sanguine Sandals with Minor Speed (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=13890) (BoE world drop)

Nat Pagle's Boots are the clear best in slot for feet. Their high iLevel means they can be enchanted with TBC enchants. Sanguine sandals are a suitable choice until you can get the fishing boots. Run speed is the preferable enchant and toons without this enchant are easily picked off by their faster moving enemies.

Rings:
Lorekeeper's Ring(Alliance)/Advisor's Ring(Horde) (Bought with Honor and Warsong Gulch Tokens.)
Bronze Band of Force (Created by Jewelcrafting. Ring gives +6 spell power.)
Seal of Wrynn (Alliance only) (Quest chain (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=373)(An Unsent Letter) beginning in The Deadmines)
Lavishly Jeweled Ring (Drops from Gilnid (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=1763) in The Deadmines)
Seal of Sylvanas (Horde only) (Quest (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=1014) in Shadowfang Keep)

Trinkets:
Inherited Insignia of the Alliance/Inherited Insignia of the Horde (BoA bought with Stone Keeper's Shards)
Insignia of the Alliance/Insignia of the Horde (Bought with PVP Honor)
Arena Grand Master (Quest (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=7838) from the Stranglethorn Vale Arena)
Discerning Eye of the Beast (BoA bought with Emblems of Heroism)
Swift Hand of Justice (BoA bought with Emblems of Heroism)
Minor Recombobulator (Requires engineering)

At 19, the Arena Grand Master trinket can be a game breaker. As the flag runner or the pocket healer for the flag runner, you'll be the target of all 10 of your enemies as you run across the field. This trinket can potentially shield you from all damage for half the length of the field.

Wands:
Gravestone Scepter (Quest(Horde (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=6561)-Alliance (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=1200)) in Blackfathom Deeps)
Banshee Rod (BoE drop, but considering it drops from a rare elite in Ghostlands, dont' count on finding this on the Alliance auction house.)
Cookie's Stirring Rod (Drops from Cookie (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=645) in The Deadmines)
Skycaller (BoE world drop)

The Gravestone Scepter is the clear best in slot, but until you make it out to Blackfathom Deeps at level 18, one of these other wands can help you. Banshee Rod is the only other wands with stats, but the Cookie's Stirring Rod and Skycaller can be much easier to get a hold of, especially for Alliance, for your temporary wand.

Weapon:
Staff of the Blessed Seer (BoE drop from Blackfathom Deeps)
Staff of the Friar (BoE drop from Blackfathom Deeps)
Twisted Chanter's Staff (BoE world drop)
Crescent Staff (Horde only) (Quest (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=914) in Wailing Caverns)
Lorekeeper's Staff(Alliance)/Advisor's Gnarled Staff(Horde) (Bought with honor and Warsong Gulch Tokens.)

Enchants: +30 Spellpower (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=22749), +20 Spirit (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=23803), +22 Intellect (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=23804)

Many twinks have multiple weapons for different occasions and swap between them frequently. A priest twink commonly has a primary healing staff, a regen staff and sometimes an intellect staff for max mana.

Staff of the Blessed Seer + spell power enchant would be the strongest healing staff combo.
Staff of the Friar + spirit enchant would be the highest regen staff combo and useful to equip during downtime.
Twisted Chanter's Staff + intellect enchant would be the highest intellect combo and useful to have equipped at the beginning of combat.
For the Horde, Crescent Staff is a great all purpose staff for anyone who can't track down one of the above staves, or doesn't want to fuss around with multiple weapons.

VI. Professions

Engineering:

Engineering is probably the most popular twink profession. This is mainly because with the exception of the sometimes hard to obtain Lucky Fishing Hat, the only head items with stats available to a level 19 are the engineering goggles.

Engineering also provides a few other useful tools.

Big Bronze Bomb
Other than the goggles, this is another main reason why twinks pick up engineering. This bomb deals fire damage to a 5 yard radius and stuns targets for 2 seconds.

Heavy Dynamite
This bomb packs the biggest punch than the Big Bronze Bomb, and has the advantage of being able to be thrown while running.

Explosive Sheep
This fluffy sheep can be deployed ahead of time, and will follow you around until it finds a target to charge and damage.

Discombobulator Ray
This item doesn't require engineering to use. Transforms the target into a leper gnome, reducing the melee and spell power by 40 and slowing their movement speed by 20% for 12 seconds. Great to use on flag carriers!

Minor Recombobulator
This trinket dispells a polymorph effect on a target, also restoring 150-250 health and mana.

Mining:

Mining goes hand in hand with engineering, but it also provides the passive ability: Toughness (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=53121). The highest level mining attainable at level 19 is Journeyman Mining, providing Toughness Rank 2 (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=53121)(+5 Stamina).

Herbalism:

Herbalism provides the castable heal, Lifeblood (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=55428). A level 19 can obtain Lifeblood Rank 2 (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=55480), healing you for 480 over 5 seconds. This heal can be used while stealthed or invisible, but note that after casting, flowers begin to bloom around you, possibly giving away your location. [SCREENSHOT (http://static.wowhead.com/uploads/screenshots/thumb/104638.jpg)]

This spell does not scale with spell power, but it is a mana free, instant cast heal.

First Aid:

Maximum attainable level of first aid at level 19 is 225 skill. Level 225 skill allows the player to make Heavy Runecloth Bandage which heals for 2000 over 8 seconds.


VII. Consumables

Rumsey Rum Black Label
Increases stamina by 15 for 15 minutes.
Easily bought in bulk from the bartender in old Southshore, located in the Caverns of Time: Old Hillsbrad Foothills instance. The instance requires level 66 to enter.

Swiftness Potion
Increases run speed by 50% for 15 seconds.
A must have for flag running or catching flag carriers.

Lesser Mana Potion
Restores 280-360 mana.

Healing Potion
Restores 260-360 HP.
Elixir of Wisdom
Increases intellect by 6 for 1 hour. Guardian elixir

Minor Wizard Oil
While applied to target weapon it increases spell power by 8. Lasts for 1 hour.

Scroll of Intellect
Increases the reader's intellect by 4 for 30 minutes.
Scroll of Stamina
Increases the reader's stamina by 4 for 30 minutes.
Scroll of Spirit II
Increases reader's spirit by 7 for 30 minutes.

Magic Dust
A secret weapon in battlegrounds. This dust can put an enemy to sleep for up to 30 seconds. (It's not effected by the CC cap.) Very useful when swarming the group of enemies holding your flag.

The use of magic dust in battlegrounds is very rare, most likely because the item is difficult to farm. It only drops off Defias Thug (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=38), Defias Cutpurse (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=94), Kul Tiras Sailor (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=3128) and Dust Devil (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=832) in Westfall, but you can sometimes find it for cheap on the auction house.
