- Matches the files
Priest Racial Abilities: Each race of Priest has two spells unique to their Race. They have been fully re-evaluated, and new ones have been added for Gnome Priests:
The files Each priest race has exactly two race-locked spells in 70245: Human Feedback and Divine Grace, Dwarf Desperate Prayer and Chastise, Night Elf Starshards and Elune's Grace, Troll Hex of Weakness and Shadowguard, Undead Touch of Weakness and Dark Sacrifice, Gnome Confounding Flash and Contingency Plan (skill line race masks). Classic Era had no Gnome priest spells.
