That's why I slightly prefaced my post. While in 120 hits I observed the stated percentages (very much not complete testing), I never once saw two procs at the same time. I do plan on testing this further sometime today and tomorrow to reach a definite conclusion.

Edit: Tested it again today and reached similar results:

This was tested against a level 61 Frostwolf in Alterac Valley, so as to eliminate the possibilty of being crit (as we all know how crit talents should work when you are actually crit). I had on 147 resilience when conducting the test, which gives -3.73% chance to be critically struck.

281 Attacks
248 Hits
8 Blessed Resilience procs (3.22581%)
8 Focused Casting procs (3.22581%)
5 Blessed Recovery (2.01513%)

In my previous test (I don't have the combat log for it, so I won't post the exact numbers) I got similar results, except that all 3 were about equal. This is within the realm of statistical variance, I believe.

Tough call between Draenai and Dwarf these days imo as both have fearward + solid racials.

Draenai:
Symbol of Hope: Strong mana regen for the whole party, 5min cool down
Gift of the Naaru: Free extra HoT
Inspiring Presence: 1% hit for the party

Dwarf:
Stoneskin: Immunity to bleeds and poisons
Desperate Prayer: As mentioned previously in the thread
AND treasure hunting!!!11111!:

The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

Apparently I wasn't clear enough, but the reason I gave two definitions for BR is because I said:

First- "This is how it works currently"

Second - "This is how I think they should modify it to work to remove the luck based factor from it."

The reason for the second definition was to state that I'd like to see the devs change the current implementation to be more in line with how they're changing the paladin's Imp Conc Aura. You can plan around the proposed change, but not around the current implementation of BR.

The last digit of Pi is delicious.

Dwarf or Undead

In PvP the two main ways to win is CC and burst damage. Rolling an Undead / Dwarf will allow you to break fear, one of the most notorious forms of CC. From the Disc Arena priests i know, high res. gear allows you much more endurance in 3v3 and 5v5 fights.

From what you've said your talent choices are good so far. Keep the mentality that you want to spec for healing for a max of 1 minute, and you want to heal as much as you posibly cant, while being hit on. So one of the most important talents to get as a combat healer, and every healer should get is the 70% to uninterrupted healing.

But hey, im shadow, and personally i've never lost a 1v1 to another shadowpriest, so theres always that option : )
