The priests actually had an spriest on our kill, but I was #2 on healing, and didn't really go below 70% mana for the entire fight. I used 1 potion, 1 shadowfiend...

So I am just making an educated guess (and from the 'oom' calls on voice coms from the shaman/paladins) that the priests probably shouldn't get an spriest.

Although, having said that, we only had spriest for 2 mages + 1 destro lock, and still hit the DPS requirement by some margin, so it might be better safe than sorry to keep the spriest with more healers.
Currently I avoid giving priests a sp on any fight unless we happen to have 3 in the raid which doesn't seem viable for Brutallus.

At least the paladins in a ranged dps group provide concentration aura which provides 50% resistance to pushback (talented). With some extra regen trinkets, appropriate libram use (the lurker one is ideal) and using fel mana pots instead of super mana and finally a shadowpriest a well geared paladin (which they should be) shouldn't have any particular issue spamming very high ranks of holy light for the entire fight. Without a shadowpriest though I know I start to run on fumes after around 4-5 minutes.

Currently I'd be expecting a group makeup for 2 of our paladins to be like:

Paladin
Shadowpriest
Elemental Shaman
Warlock
Warlock

Paladin
Shadowpriest
Elemental Shaman
Mage
Mage

Or slight variations thereof....

Our 3rd paladin unfortunately has to suck it up and sit in the tank group with devo aura.
