Stat priority and gearing

Healing power (shields scale with it), Intellect (mana pool and crit), Spell Crit (Divine Aegis and Inspiration), then Spirit with Meditation, then mp5.
Shield absorb scales with healing power, so it is still a healer's gear set.
Hit caps (9% melee, 16% spells, 440 Defense) are the Classic 1.12 values Forever inherits; the news desk notes any change. Pre-raid best-in-slot lists will be added once the Forever item database is public and verified; we will not guess at item stats.
