Curated for PvP — enemy cooldown tracking, CC diminishing returns, and Guardian Spirit with Holy Word: Chastise stun and Psychic Scream for 3v3 Arena and Battlegrounds. Reviewed 28 Jun 2026.
Recommended Holy arena build — Oracle with Premonition of Piety and Premonition of Solace providing a passive safety net between Holy Word casts. Guardian Spirit and Holy Word: Chastise stun keep teammates alive and control opponents.
Same Oracle build as the 3v3 variant — Holy Word cycle with Guardian Spirit emergency cooldown and Divine Hymn for heavy AoE healing on objectives. Premonition procs handle burst between Holy Word windows.

Tracks every enemy CC and DR — Holy's Psychic Scream is your only offensive CC and it shares DR with other fears. Knowing the DR state tells you whether Scream will land full or reduced, and whether it's worth using in a critical moment or saving for a better window.

Shows enemy offensive cooldowns the instant they pop — as Holy you need to know when Combustion, Metamorphosis, or Avenging Wrath is active to pre-load Guardian Spirit or Desperate Prayer before the burst arrives. The enemy healer's cast bar tells you when to dispel instead of healing.

OmniCD shows when Guardian Spirit and Divine Hymn are available, when another Priest in your group has already used theirs, and which healer cooldowns have been spent — so you know whether to hold Divine Hymn for the next heavy AoE phase or deploy it now.
