I specced DeDread like this: www.wowhead.com/?talent=dxg0smVqodxtc0bSo that I could have +10% spell crit from talents. My Smite now crits for about 800-1000, moving to up to 1200 with Power Infusion Active. It made me realize the need for DPS casters to have a TON of +dmg gear to do the big damage. I would almost go as far as to say that +dmg gear > stats of any kind, even Int. Zrog

That's about right, Zrog. Int isn't bad for a larger mana pool and mana regen helps a little bit too, buit we all know it's about the +dmg.
I know someone's going to yell at me for saying this, but you'd do even more holy damage if you were able to group with a pally that knows what he's doing.

/yell! Zrog, you are indead correct about +dmg. I go for this: +dmg > %crit > stam > int > spirit Damage is alot more fun anyways . Get some crit gear too!

Zrog, after seeing how you just made grunt, i noticed that you REALLY need to use a character specifically made for DPS. Youv'e never really experianced it!

Update: DeDread has a 20%+ crit rate with holy spells, and it's pretty sweet. With Power Infusion, I've critted for about 1200+, which to me is a lot considering I'm still wearing some green gear.

lol, smite
The only things I ever smite with Silicon are Shazzrah (if he happens to silence my shadow spells) and Vael (when I get BA'ed and it goes instant). Holy Fire is better and looks cooler anyway.

My view on priest dps for holy - www.wowhead.com/?talent=dxRhsV0oZfxt0MbVx - with the amount of spirit i have, my normal smites do 800 damage and crit for around 1150 - with the gear i have my crit chance with just holy is well over 18%. According to damagemeters... out of 10000 smites and holy fires, i critted 23.64%. As the spec i am now, for shadow i can do about 7/8's the dmg in holy spec...but now when i deal damage it ALWAYS heals me as opposed to me casting renew every once in a while.
