Better PvP healer, Paladin or Priest?

[Younie]

Pala are great because they cannot be CC'd and are hard to burst down as melee. And they are hard to oom.
However, pala don't have "burst" heal. Their only tool is FoL which is a spell costing very few mana but healing for very few as well.

Uhh, Holy Light? Especially DF + Holy Light. I'll give you that priests have more mobility while healing though.

Holy Light doesn't scale well and isn't a fast cast. It's not a burst heal, specially considering priest will have 1.5s cast 5k crit GH with ZG trinket.

It scales at 71%ish with 2.5s cast. With 600 healing +BoL you can max crit around 4k with it, which ain't bad for a class with (by far) the most efficient heal in the game and "no burst healing". The gheal trinket is pretty beast though, but pally can run power trinket.

There is no "best". Just pick based on gameplay.
