Critical Strike: Chance for attacks and heals to deal double damage.

Haste: Reduces your cast times, reduces your Global Cooldown, and reduces the cooldown of most rotational abilities.

Mastery: Increases the effectiveness of Mastery: Shadow Weaving, increasing the damage of your spells on targets with one or multiple damage over time effects active.

Versatility: Increases damage and healing, while also reducing damage taken.

Critical Strike - Above 1380 rating

Haste - Above 1320 rating

Mastery - Above 1380 rating

Versatility - Above 1620 rating

Example
Let's assume you gain 1% Haste for 10 Haste Rating. When above the diminishing return breakpoint, 10 Haste Rating would give you 0.9% Haste instead, resulting in a 10% reduction from what you gained previously.

Pleaseeee remove the tiny bit about Soulbinds, as that feature is exclusive to Shadowlands. Made me think Soulbinds was some weird new spriest thing ><

Just curious, I mean, I don't know everything about priests, but "Haste: Increases attack speed and spell casting speed. This also applies to pets."

Priests have pets?
