It didn't realy serve any prupose, so they put it in a glyph if you still want it:
Charred Glyph

It doesn't really heal for enough to be worth using. The only thing it's any good for currently is proccing spellweave on Congealing Bloods on DW but you might as well Mind Sear for that.

Holy Nova was great in PVP for keeping enemies off capping a node.

Highly, highly debatable.
It was great for training newbies through dungeons.

I ended up in the Scholomance yesterday, healing in Holy? On the last boss, random individuals from the party get teleported into an adjacent room, and surrounded by a ton of adds.
Lemme tell you, DPSing in Holy without Holy Nova just absolutely sucked. Thank goodness I was able to Divine Hymn through the closed door, in order to keep the rest of the party up!

You can still use Mind Sear for aoe.

Eh... you're not supposed to dps there as a healer. You can dispel the friendly adds inside the rooms for a high damage AoE. Twice is enough to kill all the adds.

Truth as that may be, HN was an awsome stealth detecting tool (Mind sear's channelled nature is a big weakness), but Major slots are so powerful that I don't see anyone glyphing just for it. I would prefer if it was a Minor one :(
There was also some power in it assuming it's discipline's only 100% risk free (interrupt susceptible, that is) heal that has no cooldown - it was nice as a filler for when several enemies were on you, you were close to your next Penance, but nowhere near close to getting a full Flash Heal off.

While the Priest's old AoE Holy Nova has been removed, the level 90 tiered talents are very similar. That is to say that they do damage and healing at the same time in a wide range of area. These talents are the following:
Cascade
Divine Star
Halo
I personally enjoy using
Halo
, but it is all about preferences!

Halo is nice, but it has a long cooldown. Actually, all 3 of the level 90 priest AoE talents have long cooldowns, so none of them are spammable like Holy Nova was. Holy Nova just had the GCD, and that was pretty much it.
I used Holy Nova to get my Jenkins title since I hadn't reached 90 yet and didn't have those talents, and my Mind Sear really sucked back then too, but I've since re-glyphed. I'm liking my instant cast Holy Fire now. xD

Holy Nova was good for killing mages.
More than one pug mage died on my watch killing trash at Vezax.

Paolo! \o/ Brilliant ode, that. Perhaps not arcane brilliant, but nonetheless. Ulduar had plenty of memorable trash to mock dps for dying on. /reminisce

Halo is my favourite one to use out of the three as well, though I'm generally running Cascade now (which is also more than a little pretty). Smart heals are always good and I might or might not have pulled a lot of extra packs in 5mans with Halo.
