Circle of Healing (CoH) is a priest ability learned at level 50 for those with the Holy specialization. It is an instant-cast spell that heals nearby party or raid members within a small radius around a target.
Circle of Healing comes with a 10 second cooldown, implemented in attempts to minimize priests from simply spamming the spell, making some forms of incoming raid damage trivial, for example the Vortex spell encountered in the Malygos encounter. Despite this, the spell remains useful in many places. The spell now works as a "smart heal", a recently implemented mechanic in which the spell seeks out raid members with the lowest health and heals them; this is instead of its old mechanic of healing a specific targeted group.
In more detail, if the spell is cast with no specific target it will use the priest caster as a "base" of the spell and will heal five targets within its 15 yard radius who are currently at the lowest health. Should the priest target someone specifically and cast the spell, it will use that targeted player as a "base" and will heal five players (not necessarily including the "base") for a 15 yard radius of that player.
This new mechanic is useful for healing groups of players at once while avoiding the need for them to be actually grouped together. Healing all melee at once, for example.
