Priest · Holy · Row 3 of 7 · Single rank
Changed from Classic Active ability
Holy Nova sits in row 3 of the Priest Holy tree. A talent tree is simply the grid of talents for one class role. It costs just one point. So the only question is whether opening its row fits your build.
Changed from Classic. This talent now works differently than in Classic, so read the ranks below before you spend any points.

What Holy Nova does at each rank
A rank is one level of a talent. Every rank makes the effect a bit stronger. The list below uses the exact wording from the beta client, word for word.
- Rank 1: Causes an explosion of holy light around the caster, causing 26 to 30 Holy damage to all enemy targets within 10 yards and healing all party members within 10 yards for 49 to 57. These effects cause no threat.
How to reach Holy Nova
Row 3 opens after you spend 10 points in the earlier Holy rows. Level 20 is the earliest you can pick up Holy Nova.
Is Holy Nova worth the points?
One point gives you the full effect. The real cost is opening row 3. That is 10 points in the rows above, so take it when the talent suits your build.
