'''Chakra''' is the Tier 5 [[priest talents#Holy|Holy]] [[priest]] [[talent]] ability. Chakra allows the holy priest to enter into one of three different Chakra states, each offering different benefits. Upon casting Chakra, the priest will acquire the Chakra buff, which lasts until cancelled, or until one of the related spells is cast. Upon casting either [[Heal]], [[Flash Heal]], [[Greater Heal]], [[Binding Heal]], [[Prayer of Healing]], [[Prayer of Mending]], [[Mind Spike]] or [[Smite]], the priest will enter into a corresponding Chakra state until canceled. With the [[Revelations]] talent your Holy specialisation spell [[Holy Word: Chastise]] transforms into a new ability depending on your Chakra state, for the duration of that state. The three Chakra states are outlined below, followed by a table of their qualities.

With the [[Revelations]] talent your [[Holy Word: Chastise]] spell transforms into [[Holy Word: Serenity]], an instant cast direct healing spell which heals a friendly target for a significant amount and increases the critical effect chance of your healing spells on the target by 25% for 6 seconds. This makes Chakra: Serenity ideal for single target and tank healing.

==Chakra: Sanctuary==

Achieved by casting Chakra followed by [[Prayer of Healing]] or [[Prayer of Mending]].

With the [[Revelations]] talent your [[Holy Word: Chastise]] spell transforms into [[Holy Word: Sanctuary]], an [[AoE|area of effect (AoE)]] healing spell which allows you to bless an area, healing all friendly targets within the area for a small amount every 2 seconds for 18 seconds. Chakra: Sanctuary is therefore suited for encounters where AoE healing is preferred.

  +
==Chakra: Chastise==

Achieved by casting Chakra followed by [[Mind Spike]] or [[Smite]]. Chakra: Chastise increases your total damage done by Shadow and Holy spells by 15%. This makes Chakra: Chastise ideal for situations where damage, not healing, is the priority. The [[Revelations]] talent does not affect your [[Holy Word: Chastise]] spell while in Chakra: Chastise.

Chakra is the Tier 5 Holy priest talent ability. Chakra allows the holy priest to enter into one of three different Chakra states, each offering different benefits. Upon casting Chakra, the priest will acquire the Chakra buff, which lasts until cancelled, or until one of the related spells is cast. Upon casting either Spell holy greaterheal [Heal], Spell holy flashheal [Flash Heal], Spell holy heal [Greater Heal], Spell holy blindingheal [Binding Heal], Spell holy prayerofhealing02 [Prayer of Healing], Spell holy prayerofmendingtga [Prayer of Mending], Spell priest mindspike [Mind Spike] or Spell holy holysmite [Smite], the priest will enter into a corresponding Chakra state until canceled. With the Ability priest bindingprayers [Revelations] talent your Holy specialisation spell Spell holy chastise [Holy Word: Chastise] transforms into a new ability depending on your Chakra state, for the duration of that state. The three Chakra states are outlined below, followed by a table of their qualities.

Chakra: Serenity

Achieved by casting Chakra followed by Spell holy greaterheal [Heal], Spell holy flashheal [Flash Heal], Spell holy heal [Greater Heal] or Spell holy blindingheal [Binding Heal]. Chakra: Serenity increases the critical effect chance of your direct healing spells by 10%, and causes your direct heals (including Spell holy blindingheal [Binding Heal] and Spell holy persuitofjustice [Holy Word: Serenity]) to refresh the duration of your Spell holy renew [Renew] on the target. With the Ability priest bindingprayers [Revelations] talent your Spell holy chastise [Holy Word: Chastise] spell transforms into Spell holy persuitofjustice [Holy Word: Serenity], an instant cast direct healing spell which heals a friendly target for a significant amount and increases the critical effect chance of your healing spells on the target by 25% for 6 seconds. This makes Chakra: Serenity ideal for single target and tank healing.

Chakra: Sanctuary

Achieved by casting Chakra followed by Spell holy prayerofhealing02 [Prayer of Healing] or Spell holy prayerofmendingtga [Prayer of Mending]. Chakra: Sanctuary increases the healing done by your area of effect spells and Spell holy renew [Renew] by 15% and reduces the cooldown of your Spell holy circleofrenewal [Circle of Healing] spell by 2 seconds. With the Ability priest bindingprayers [Revelations] talent your Spell holy chastise [Holy Word: Chastise] spell transforms into Spell holy divineprovidence [Holy Word: Sanctuary], an area of effect (AoE) healing spell which allows you to bless an area, healing all friendly targets within the area for a small amount every 2 seconds for 18 seconds. Chakra: Sanctuary is therefore suited for encounters where AoE healing is preferred.

Chakra: Chastise

Achieved by casting Chakra followed by Spell priest mindspike [Mind Spike] or Spell holy holysmite [Smite]. Chakra: Chastise increases your total damage done by Shadow and Holy spells by 15%. This makes Chakra: Chastise ideal for situations where damage, not healing, is the priority. The Ability priest bindingprayers [Revelations] talent does not affect your Spell holy chastise [Holy Word: Chastise] spell while in Chakra: Chastise.


Chakra: Serenity Chakra: Sanctuary Chakra: Chastise
Increases the critical effect chance of your direct healing spells by 10%, and causes your direct heals to refresh the duration of your Spell holy renew [Renew] on the target. Increases the healing done by your area of effect spells and Spell holy renew [Renew] by 15% and reduces the cooldown of your Spell holy circleofrenewal [Circle of Healing] by 2 sec. Increases your total damage done by Shadow and Holy spells by 15%.

Please note this depicts a previous version of Chakra.

Improvements

It should be noted that talents such as Spell holy sealofvengeance [Twin Disciplines] can be used to increase your general healing effectiveness (and consequently the effectiveness of Holy Word: Serenity/Sanctuary), but currently only 2 talents increase the effectiveness of the Chakra spell itself.
