course, with the extensive changes going on, it might not be an issue
at all. Who knows.

It's not likely to be an issue. If you create a new character on live servers right now, health and mana regeneration is really quite fast for the first 10-15 levels. My understanding is that this kind of rate is going to last for much longer in Cataclym, so people won't *need* Spirit Tap (which may not even exist in the end) in order to keep questing. Plus, we've already seen talents designed to buff healing spells *and* attack spells like Smite, so we won't necessarily see Holy priests wanding their way to 85 either.
