Holy Nova is a Holy based PBAoE spell which heals party members and damages enemies, causing no threat.

In patch 3.0.2, this spell was changed to no longer be obtained via a Holy talent. It has since been learned from a trainer, while its place in the Holy tree has been taken by Spell holy testoffaith [Desperate Prayer] with the removal of priest racial spells.

Notes

  • Holy Nova was originally a 31-point holy talent, and has been subject to many tweaks over time, including changes in cooldown, mana cost, and actual effect.
  • Holy Nova generates no threat. However, it will put you on the aggro table, so if no other player is attacking a mob, the mob will attack you.

Tips and Tactics

  • It can be used in aggro-sensitive fights to avoid getting aggro.
  • Its mana cost is very high, so avoid spamming it if you will need to heal after you hit it a few times.
