Shadow Word: Death is somewhat of a risky spell to cast. It is best used by shadow priests and is rarely employed by healers.
Binding Heal is good if you and a friend are both low on health, this is also a pretty inefficient mana usage spell.
Shadowfiend is one of the best priest spells available. Although it has a 5 minute cooldown, this pet will deal damage to enemies while greatly improving your mana regeneration. It's good for questing as a way to quickly build back up your mana pool and for PvP as a last resort when your mana is gone to continue to heal/deal damage.
Prayer of Mending will fly all over the battlefield and will heal friendly targets on its own, allowing you to focus on other healing spells. Use this as often as possible especially with large groups as its low mana cost makes it very efficient. This healing spell also causes threat to the raid member healed so it's a useful spell to keep on the tank in instances or raids.
Mass Dispel is great for raids and instances with bosses that quickly levee negative spells on many of your party members. As the description says, it is more powerful than any other dispelling effect, and it can even dispel paladin bubbles and ice blocks.
